Duplicating slides and editing many at once

Introduction

Two time-savers in the screen and playlist editors: Duplicate copies a slide or a playlist with all its settings, and Select lets you act on many slides at once. Both produce drafts, so nothing changes on screen until you publish.

Duplicating a slide

Every slide card has a duplicate button (FI: Kopioi sisältö):

• Click it and the copy lands right after the original, with the same duration, schedule, visibility, and rotation.
• The copy is a draft. The Publish button lights up; the copy reaches the screen when you publish.
• Google Slides and Canva slides keep their link to the source, so both copies keep syncing.
• A playlist row on a screen can be duplicated too; the copy keeps the row's own settings and you can point it at another playlist.
• Typical use: the same image with two different schedules, or a template slide you tweak per version.

Duplicating a playlist

On the Playlists page, each card has a quiet Duplicate (FI: Kopioi) pill next to its name:

• The copy is named "Name (copy)" and sorts next to the original.
• Everything is copied: every slide, durations, schedule, permissions, and the sync mode.
• Screen assignments are not copied, so the copy plays nowhere until you assign it. Open it, edit, assign, publish.
• Typical use: next month's campaign from this month's, or a per-location variant of a shared playlist.

Selecting many slides

Click Select (FI: Valitse) in the editor toolbar:

• Cards get checkboxes; click anywhere on a card to tick it. The counter reads "N selected".
• Google Slides and Canva groups select as a whole, and playlist rows on a screen can be selected too.
• You can still drag to reorder while selecting.
• Add, Save draft, and Publish are disabled until you click the green Done (FI: Valmis) button.

Actions on the selection

With slides ticked:

• Schedule (FI: Ajasta): opens the normal schedule window and applies one schedule to every selected slide. Disabled in a playlist that uses one schedule for all its slides.
• Hide / Show (FI: Piilota / Näytä): change visibility for all of them.
• Delete (FI: Poista): marks them for deletion. Each card gets a restore button until you publish, so there's no confirmation step.
• All of these are drafts. Click Done, then Publish.

Summary

Duplicate a slide from its card, a playlist from the Playlists page. Select, tick, then Schedule, Hide, Show, or Delete in one go. Publish afterwards.
