Duplicate a campaign

Onirim
Onirim

Hello there!

I often need to duplicate a campaign for some reasons like:


  • Splitting a gaming group on 2 separate campaigns without having to re-create a new campaign again

  • Using a campaign website as a template because I want use it for two or more gaming groups

Do you think it may be possible to add this feature? A simple button for duplicate all the campaign :)

Thanks!

    Hey @Onirim, thanks for the request!

    Do you have a Campaign that you want copied right now?

    We have an internal tool that we've been working on. It's not even "alpha" at this point as it doesn't copy everything, but it might get you part of the way there. And worst case, if it doesn't turn out like you want, you can just delete the copy.

    Hello @thjaen

    Yeah, I need to do this for example with this campaign : https://cyberpunknightcityblues.obsidianportal.com/ (duplicate them with another name like for example "Cyberpunk - Neon Red")

    Thanks!

    @Onirim, after taking a look at your (beautiful!) Campaign, I don't think this tool is going to live up to what you're hoping for here, but I went ahead and did the duplicate.

    The tool doesn't duplicate the Media Library at all, so all of the images are going to be broken/missing.

    Again, if it's more headache than help to fix up the duplicate, just go ahead and delete it.

    Thanks! It's just the media library and pictures to add again, so it's not a big deal and It's will be useful I think. Pictures are not the more important things to store in a campaign anyway :)

    @Hojou, the feature is in pretty much the same spot. There's a technical hurdle that we haven't solved yet with duplicating the Media Library files and updating the references to point to the duplicates.

    Do you have a Campaign you want duplicated? Like we did for Onirim, we can duplicate it for you and then you can just delete it if it's not useful.

    Hey @thaen, this feature doesn't really interest me, but I just wanted to commend the wonderful OP service!
