### How to clone published content

## 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**:

![](../assets/content-creation-image34.png)

You can now make edits, save drafts, and preview. Just like you would normally in WordPress. The only difference is a **reminder message** to tell you that you’re editing an Amendment:

![](../assets/content-creation-image10.png)

For anybody else collaborating, they can see the Amendment in the dashboard:

![](../assets/content-creation-image35.png)

When you’re ready, click **Publish Amendment**:

![](../assets/content-creation-image48.png)

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:

![](../assets/content-creation-image50.png)

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