# Cloning a post

 * I write a number of blog posts that are often very similar – for example I write
   up the five songs my iPod played to me on shuffle each morning as a seperate 
   post.
 * There are elements within this page I need to copy across like a banner image
   and tags.
 * It would be great if I had an option to ‘clone’ a previous post.
 * Maybe in the form of a button on a post page – so I open the last ipod tracks
   post, push the clone button and it creates a whole new post with a whole new 
   ID but with all the same content – I can then just go and change the text.
 * So the question I’ve got really is ‘is this possible?’ and if it is on a scale
   of 1-10 what level of coding abillity would I need to create it?
 * If it’s anything above 3 is there anyone else that’s a better coder that might
   also want this feature who could help me?
