The product duplication tool in Site Store Pro lets you create a full deep-copy of any product in six steps — including all variants, inventory records, image galleries, customization fields, cross-sell links, and event details. Each duplication run is wrapped in an atomic database transaction, so either the entire clone succeeds or nothing is written. Duplicated variants receive auto-generated unique SKUs, and the new product starts in draft state for safe review before publishing.

​
How to Duplicate a Product

1

Open the Product Catalog

Go to Admin → Products at /admin/ecommerce/products.
2

Open the Duplicate Modal

Click the Copy button on any product row. A slide-over modal opens on the right side of the screen.
3

Review the Pre-Filled Title

The new product title is pre-filled as:
For example: "Blue Denim Jacket - Copy A3F1". This is fully editable before saving.
4

Review the Pre-Filled SEO Slug

The slug is pre-filled as:
The slug is validated for uniqueness before the form can be submitted — no two products can share the same slug.
5

Toggle Variant & Image Duplication

The “Duplicate All Variants, Inventory & Images” toggle is checked by default. Leave it enabled to perform a full deep-copy. Uncheck it to create a new product shell with only the base product data.
6

Save

Click Save. The duplication runs inside an atomic database transaction — if any part of the process fails, the entire operation is rolled back and no partial data is created.

​
What Gets Duplicated

A full duplication copies every piece of data associated with the source product. The table below documents exactly what is cloned:
All custom checkout input fields (text inputs, selects, radio groups, checkboxes, multi-selects) and their associated selectable choices and price surcharges are fully cloned onto the new product.
New variant records are created with all pricing fields intact:
  • public_price, wholesale_price, sale_price
  • variant_fee, wholesale_variant_fee
  • charge_tax settings
  • Payment processor IDs (Paddle and Stripe)
  • Download expiration and max-download limits
  • Personalization / gift wrapping configuration
Each duplicated variant receives a guaranteed unique SKU — for example SKU-COPY-WXYZ — generated automatically.
Inventory records are cloned per variant, preserving:
  • quantity_available (shelf stock)
  • warehouse_stock_level
  • reserved_stock
  • location_id (warehouse location assignments)
All image sets are duplicated, preserving:
  • Thumbnail, main image, and zoom image paths
  • CDN URL references
  • image_url_source flags (direct URL vs. local disk)
  • image_alt text and zoom_label captions
  • Search image flags and active/inactive status

​
Unique SKU Generation

Site Store Pro guarantees that every duplicated variant receives a unique SKU automatically. You do not need to manually enter or modify SKUs after duplication.
After duplication, the new product is created in draft / inactive state by default. Review all fields — especially pricing, SEO slug, and inventory — before publishing the duplicated product to the storefront.

​
Atomic Transaction Safety

The entire duplication process — base product, variants, inventory, images, categories, custom fields, cross-sells, discounts, and events — runs inside a single atomic database transaction.
If any step in the duplication fails (e.g. a unique constraint violation, a disk write error for images), the transaction is fully rolled back. No partial product, orphaned variant, or incomplete image record will be left in the database.
