Prestashop Module Products Details Cloning

Save your time and bulk copy or combine, most of the elements or details of one product to many others, with this PrestaShop module!

CloneProductDetails is a super module that combines three other key modules :

  • -Clone Specific Prices: To duplicate the product's discounts and specific prices rules from on product to many.
  • -Clone Attachments: To duplicate the product's attachments from on product to many.
  •  -Clone Customizations: To duplicate the product's customization fields from on product to many.

CloneProductDetails provides much more !
It also offers the possibility to clone or combine more or less every element of any product to a bulk of others.

In one click, your are done, duplicating any data of your choices to your entire catalog or a selection of products.

Some examples:

  • You want to have the same new text displayed when all your products (or a selection of them) are out of stock. Afraid to have to do it manually for all of them in the back office ?
    CloneProductDetails is your solution: You change the text for one single product and clone it to all the products you want with just one click.
  •  -You changed your provider for hundred of products and need to update your database.
    What if you could do it for just of product and duplicate in one click to the next hundred ? -You have a common list of keywords you would like to add to to many products. But you would like to keep the existing keywords of each products. So you need to do a bulk combine. Again, CloneProductDetails allows you to do that instantly.
  • -You have many products with the same features and get rid of creating them again and again in the back office ?
    Eh, just do it once and clone !
  •  -You would like to apply the same discount to all products of one or more catĂŠgories ?
    So easy, apply that discount to one of the products, select the categories to apply to, click "clone" and you are done.

Your best friend to migrate your shop to PS 1.4 ! : Prestashop V1.4 brings lot of new very interesting features. But if the migration of a previous version database can be done automatically, it does not mean you'll get benefit of the new features (new database fields are left empty or get assigned a "by default" value). Even if you have less than 50 products, I wish you good luck editing each of them from the back office, to fill in these new fields. Unless you use this module: You will simply apply the required changes in one product (i.e: unity or condition or online-only trigger etc ...) and clone to all other products in one click.

Just have a look at the list of included cloning options, to build your own ideas of how it could reduce your administrative charge:
