The clone button of a channel layout can be used to send a copy of the layout to a different channel or save as a template.

Just like Pages templates can be created from channel layouts. This allows a user to make a new or modified version of the layout without modifying the original. These templates can then be edited and cloned back into channels for later use. Every clone cretes a new copy of the channel layout. To clone a channel layout.

  1. Navigate to the "Channel Layout" or "Channel Layout Template" section
  2. Select and view the channel layout to be cloned.
  3. Click the "Clone" button
  4. (optional) Modify the name/description to be used with the new channel layout
  5. Selected the destination level. This will be either a template on the account level or another channel.
  6. Select the layout clone options.
    • Just like the template options in the layout editor choose which elements from the channel layout should be preserved.
  7. Click "Save" to finish the clone.
