 of Experiment results and so on. If you wish to reproduce that behaviour, you

+#### Clone and Amend functionality
+
+Altis v14 no longer provides Yoast Duplicate Post plugin that provided "Clone" and "Amend" functionality. However, you
+can install the off-the-shelf plugin in your project's `composer.json` file.
+
+```shell
+## Add the Yoast Duplicate Post plugin
+composer require "wppackagist/duplicate-post"
+```
+
+Note: The plugin uses the terms "Clone" and "Copy to a new draft" instead of "Clone" and "Rewrite & Republish" instead of
+"Amend". Otherwise, the functionality is the same.

 The Publication Checklist feature has been removed from Altis v14. If you wish

-## How (and when) to amend content
-
-An amendment is similar to a clone, because it creates a **copy of an already published** post or page. Multiple people can collaborate on the amendment. Then when it’s ready, click **Publish Amendment** and it **replaces** the original.
-
-Hover over the page or post to be amended and click **Create Amendment**:

-This gives you two options:
-
-- **Save changes and compare**
-    Choose this and you can view changes between the original and the amended versions before publishing
-- **Publish Amendment**
-    Choose this and the amendment goes live **straightaway**. Although maybe you want to **delay when the amendment goes live**? That’s when you can **schedule** amendments (see below for how)
-
-### Scheduling amendments
-
-An amendment is great when you want to **plan your edits in advance**. Maybe you want to **schedule** a page changing from:
-
-- “New product coming soon” to “New product now available”
-- “Sale finishes at midnight” to “Sale now closed”
-- “The winner will be announced here at 2pm…” to “The winner is…”
-
-Or maybe you want changes to happen while you are:
-
-- In a meeting
-- On leave or away from the office
-- Lacking reliable Wi-Fi 
-
-In the **sidebar**, click the date and time next to Publish Amendment:
-

-This opens a **calendar**. You can now set when the amendment goes live, down to the very minute:
