What It Does

Duplicate Menu adds a one-click 'Duplicate' link to each menu in Appearance > Menus, creating an exact copy of the menu and all its items. The duplicated menu is saved as a new entry that you can then rename, tweak, and assign to any location. It does not touch existing menus, so it functions purely as a cloning shortcut.

Who It's For

This plugin is built for site owners, agencies, and developers who frequently spin up similar navigation structures across staging sites, multilingual installs, franchise networks, or seasonal campaigns. If you find yourself rebuilding the same multi-level menu from scratch for each project, the time savings are immediate.

Who Should Skip It

If your site uses a single static menu or you are comfortable recreating menu items by hand, this plugin adds little value and another dependency to maintain. Users who need to duplicate posts, pages, or entire site content should look at a broader cloning tool instead.

The Bottom Line

Duplicate Menu does one thing and does it well, earning a Quality Score of 82.94/100 with a recent update and near-perfect compatibility. It is a niche utility that pays for itself in minutes for anyone managing repeated menu structures. The lack of support activity is a mild flag, but the strong rating and fresh release date suggest it remains a reliable choice.

Pick this if you need to duplicate an entire site including menus, plugins, and media, not just the navigation.
