This plugin has solved one of my long standing issues with a Multisite build. It’s small and functional and we love it. During the process we needed to contact the developers – which you can do googling the plugin and going to the developers home site (sorry I can’t post the direct link). The fix was agile and simple – something I could do myself and this is not the perfect plugin for us. I highly recommend both this plugin and the developers.

The clone tool did not show all users and did not clone to all users. This was not what I expected and did not serve my purpose, at all.

Thanks for adding this to WP community! Can it be deactivated after you’ve run the script?

Bought a plugin that works great… but only if you turn on a certain setting in the Screen Options. I needed it to work for every user, and this FV Clone Screen Options saved the day… quickly.
