# How to Duplicate a Course

Copy a whole course, its sections and lessons, into a new course

Duplicating a course is a quick and efficient way to create a new course with the same structure, content, and settings as an existing one.

This is particularly useful for creating similar courses, updating content for a new cohort, or using a course as a template without having to start from scratch.

### Step 1: Select the Course to Duplicate

From your Shopify Admin, go to **Apps** -> **LDT Online Courses** -> **Courses** to view all your courses

Find the course you want to duplicate from the list

Select the course to open it, then click **Duplicate course** in the title row.

### Step 3: Name the New Course and Save

* The app creates the copy with the same title plus " - Copy" and opens its page.
* Enter the new name in the **Course title** field.
* The top bar then shows **Unsaved changes** with **Discard** and **Save** — click **Save**.

### Step 4: Review the Duplicated Course

You are taken to the duplicated course's page as soon as you confirm.

All the modules, lessons, and content blocks from the original course will be copied over.

You can now edit the new course's details, such as the title, categories, products, or visibility settings, to fit your needs.

This saves you time by allowing you to easily reuse the structure and content without manual reconstruction.

Result:

By following these steps, you have successfully duplicated a course. You can now quickly modify the duplicated course to create new content, making your course creation process more efficient.
