Duplicating a Page Part
Duplicating Page Parts allows you to make a copy of an existing Page Part which allows you to:
Create a copy of a Page Part on the same page and as the Page Part you are copying from. Use case: The top Page Part can display list items that have not been reviewed and the bottom Page Part can display list items that have been reviewed. In this example, the Additional Filters for each Page Part will need to be set up so that each Page Part filters the list items.
You can also copy a Page Part on a Page from one Portal and copy to a Page to another Portal. For example, if you have set up a Page Part on a Page on the Residences Portal and you would like to have the same Page Part on a Page in the Programs Portal, you can copy the PagePart from the Residences Portal to the Programs Portal. The copied Page Part will have the exact same settings as the one that it was copied from and will save you time is customizing the Page Part on the Programs Portal.
Steps to duplicate a Page Part:
Click the Duplicate Page Part button
A popup will appear where you can name the Page Part and select which Portal, Page and Page Filter you'd like the duplicate to be in.
When you have made your selections, click Save to duplicate the Page Part.
Page Part Type
There are 7 different types of Page Parts. As each one has its own purpose and because the set up of each type differs slightly, separate knowledge base articles have been created. These knowledge base articles will provide you with the specific steps to configure each one.

Save the changes.
When no items are checked in the Accessible on section, the Page Part will be hidden when users navigate to the Page it is on
