Can you copy section details? Can't Post
Hi all,

I will be creating a number of sections which will require very similar listing fields, is there a way to replicate a whole section to save having to create all the fields and parameteres again from scratch, ie take the listings section and somehow replicate it as rentals for example.



Thanks in advance

Hi there.

Thanks for posting!

When you create a new section, a schema file will be created for it in your /data/schema folder. If you copy that schema file and move it into the schema/preset folder, it will become an option in the drop down for "Preset Menu" when you create a new section.

Does that make sense? Give it a shot and let me know how you make out :).

Hi Ross,

Thanks for that little gem of information, it has saved me hours of work, it just goes to show, it is always worth asking the question.

Thanks again.
