duplicating entries

    Hello,

    We are using the GF plugin to manage submissions to a directory. Since there is currently no good way to import entries from xls or csv file is it possible to somehow duplicate existing entries? This would save many hours of data entry. Please help.

  2. There is no built in way to duplicate existing entries. Can you explain how you would use this functionality? Thanks.

    Yes of course,

    Essentially the admins would like to be able to create multiple entries in the backend and then make slight adjustments from a single front-end submission via a backend duplicate function.

    Example: Visitor submits premium event listing that spans 3 months. Admin spends 5 minutes to duplicate entry from 1x entry to 3x so it appears 3 times in directory table. Is there another better way I could work this out? The project does not entail a budget enough to convert everything to custom post types
