Forums » Suggestions & Development Discussion » Duplicate whole character profiles

I know that we have the widget copy feature (which I LOVE), but I would be over the moon if I were able to copy an entire character profile to make another character. I have a lot of AU RPs, so it can be quite tedious recreating the same layout for editing and updating by copying one widget at a time.

Of course, this would only apply to one's own characters, but man it would really be a lifesaver!

Agreed! I use the same basic layout for all my characters so if I could create an anon or draft character template set up the way I want that I could just copy for each new character, that would be such a life saver! Right now I'm using a combination of memorization and Google docs. Workable but not ideal.

I'll second (third?) this! I would also like to have this for groups because when I get the style looking really good, it would be nice to copy that over to a new group instead of having to set up all the color palettes again.

As someone who basically copy/pastes the text template I use from one character to another, with minor tweaks, being able to make duplicates of existing profiles (i.e. more than one page) would save me so much time.

I agree too! I tend to use the same template myself, it would save me so much time.

I fully support and agree with this too! I also have a lot of AU RPs, and often use a similar layout between different characters myself, so being able to copy an entire profile (pages and all) from one slot to the next would be a huge time-saver!

I'd love this suggestion, because I have to do this sometimes too and it would save so much timeeeeeee aaaaaaaaaaa

I think it would also be cool to convert PDF-saved profiles into real ones again, but I'm pretty sure that's near to impossible, so..

I'm also totally supporting this idea!

Throwing my support in on this idea as well! I use the same general setup for all my profiles and usually end up spending 10 minutes just copy-pasting one widget at a time between an old profile to a new one and, like others have said, it can get a little tedious at times.

I suggested something similar a while ago! https://www.rprepository.com/community/forums/topic/107645
I would LOVE to see such option, especially because I add TTRPG stats and it's boring to copy-paste all basic stuff, and I always wanna jump into filling it with important info right away.
