Simplify duplication operations
Automate time-consuming routine operations
Imagine, you need to copy a lot of categories to a new website you’ve created within Magento. With all subcategories and products, category duplication becomes a very time-consuming and tedious task. Let the extension automate this process.
Save a great amount of time
Spend just a few minutes on extension installation. Magento duplicate categories tool allows you to free up a lot of time, which you can invest in your store development rather than routine tasks.
Accurate duplication tool
Choose parent category for the category being duplicated
You can choose which category will be a parent one for the category you duplicate. For example, you would like to copy category ‘Chairs’ to a different website within your Magento. You can choose which category will be parent for the duplicate in the new website.
Automatically modify category name, description, etc
It is possible to find and replace content for duplicate categories in name, description, meta keywords and meta description fields during duplication. Words from ‘Search For’ fields will be replaced with content from ‘Replace With’ field, you can fill in both fields.
Duplicate all subcategories and keep all product assignments (optional)
Use the module to copy categories and if needed to copy all subcategories of the duplicated category while duplication. You can keep all product assignments in the same way.
Perform more product actions at a time
To optimize your work with routine product management issues use also the Mass Product Actions module. It allows to fulfill this and much more other time consuming manager’s tasks just in a few clicks.

Helped with site migration
It’s not kind of an extension you would use every day but it is worth the money spent even if used occasionally. It helped us to migrate our site and change its structure a little. I can’t even calculate the time this mod saved for us.
At first we had a few problems but support fixed them, thanks. But you’d better still create a backup before its installation and before duplicating the categories.

Helpfull but not perfect
Verry helpfull and reliable in duplicating categories, but one improvements would be fine (therefore one star is missing):
- Value of the field "is anchor" is always reseted to "no" instead of copying or asking for it. When copiing long catalog trees, thats a lot of clicking-work to do afterwards.

Awesome tool
I'm glad I've picked up this addon together with some more Amasty mods. The tool is as easy as it can be, and that's awesome, cause in our store we have to create a lot of similar categories and manually fill them with hundreds of products. Now the problem has gone, it takes me a couple of minutes to duplicate and edit a category. Thank you, guys!

Thank you, Amasty!
What would have taken me weeks to complete took me under an hour. When it comes to Magento and future work I might need, Amasty will be the first company I look to! Thank you!

The best module for categories duplicating I have found
First, i would like to thank developer(s) of "Duplicate Categories" extension.
I have looked around to find something like this, and finally i found it.
I'ts a great extension for duplicating categories. I'm using Magento 1.4.0.1 and it just work perfect.
I now can duplicate the whole root category to a new "root category" or to any of the existing "categories" with all sub-categories and product-relations without any problem.
It saved me a lot of time. : )
I would recommend using this module on 1.4 too.
You can first try a demo, if you want to, in 1.4.x.x

Great extension
Andrei installed this extension in our development environment for testing after we purchased the extension for testing. It worked perfectly! He also installed it in our production environment when we wanted to go live. This is a very responsive developer and support is great!

Perfect timesaver
I just purchased and installed this timesaver.
What can I say - It works absolutely flawless. It has been the first extension i've bought which installs without any problems, works without any problems. We are on vServer (not dedicated) and it runs perfectly. Deleting the duplicated categories have not been a problem - i tried everything out.
As always on Amasty Extensions -> No Spaghetti Code in the extension. Other extensions have messed up many things in our store, but never on Amasty's work.
