Description
Meta Duplicate Post is a powerful, flexible WordPress plugin that lets you duplicate posts, pages, and custom post types with a single click.

– Meta Data Duplication: All associated meta fields are copied along with the post content.
– Secure and Optimized: Built using the singleton pattern with robust input sanitization, escaping, and nonce verification.
