This is a common challenge. You create a wonderful SharePoint Page with all the web parts you like configured correctly and in the correct locations. Now you wish to copy the page keep all the web parts and content but allow for tweaking same. What do you typically do?
- You open the library in "Explorer View"
- Copy the page and rename it.
- Open the page
- All your web parts are lost.
There is a way around this.
- You can copy pages using the "Content and Structure" tool, but not to the same folder in the library.
Go to SiteActions -> Site Settings -> Manage Content and Structure. Navigate to the pages list. Copy the page to a different pages list of folder in the library. Rename the copied page. Move the copied page back to the original pages list or folder. The web parts will be still there.
Note: If you do not have versioning turned on the library this will not work.
