i think the latest version of save and copy- 1.05 with the latest CMSB- 2.61 (Build 1058)
erases info from your previous entry and saves it over the current. You don't notice until going back out to list view.
Here is what happened to me:
Going down a long list of items that had categories from a different table (food menu items assigned to categories)
I filled a record, pressed save and copy and pasted new info over all my fields, leaving the category the same. I found this faster than having to change the category with a drop menu.
When finished, all of my wysiwyg (description) fields were shifted. Wrong descriptions per item.
I figured i did something stupid and tested a couple more and sure enough, they were all shifted, descriptions with wrong items.

Hi rez,
I think I have a solution. Can you try making this change to the plugin to see if it fixes the problem?
In saveAndCopy.php, change line 22:
$button = '<input type="button" name="action=save" value="' .t('Save & Copy'). '" onclick="window.SAVE_AS_COPY_CLICKED=true; $(\'form\').submit();" class="button" />';
...adding this new code:
$button = '<input type="button" name="action=save" value="' .t('Save & Copy'). '" onclick="window.SAVE_AS_COPY_CLICKED=true; $(\'form\')[0].onsubmit(); $(\'form\').submit();" class="button" />';
Does that solve the problem? Please let me know and I will patch the add on. Thanks!
Chris
