Hey guys can you duplicate a database, it’s index page and dynamic item page, go into the dupe pages and change the code accordingly and have it work? I mean, instead of recreating a database each time cant you just copy the pages? Also, how many databases can you have in the wix system?

Hi,

It is not currently possible to duplicate a collection.
As a workaround you can export the data and import it to the new collection.

We do not enforce a hard limit for the number of collection each site can host.

But what about single rows?

Hi,

Duplicating rows is also not possible but it is a valid feedback.
Feel free to post your request in our feature request forum

what? I was duplicating rows this morning to pop the db with static information that I then went back into and changed e.g. if all the regiments in a brigade have the same commander, values, experience etc just set one, dupe the row down then adjust for the regiment/battalion name. worked fine.

Hey,
You can use the query function to get all the records, filter the relevant results and use the insert function to duplicated them. However, as Ido suggested, exporting and importing the records using the editor would be easier.
