There's a switch statement based ajax function in outline_designer ( http://drupal.org/project/outline_designer) called duplicate. The best way to clone a node is to load it with drupal node_load then clear out the nid. Then call node_save and it'll look at the node, see that there isn't a nid and assign it one. The rest of the fields will be saved via the nodeapi hooks. The function you wrote before looks very similar to the one I used. btopro On Mon, Jul 21, 2008 at 7:44 AM, Lluís <enboig@gmail.com> wrote:
I have developed a simple group system (similar to OG in some ways, very diferent in others) so I need a user beeing able to import nodes from other groups to his own. To do so I have created a form which loads all the nodes from other groups as checkboxes. The checked items will be cloned to his group.
I haven't tried node_clone, but I think it is UI oriented; I just need to clone a node knowing its ID (all group permissions, etc... are rewritten using nodeapi of my custom node).

You could take a look at the node_clone module if you haven't already: http://drupal.org/project/node_clone

I have developed a custom module with custom node types and I need to make users able to clone nodes; would this be a good way to do so?
$clone=node_load($value); $clone->is_new = true; $clone->uid = $user->uid; unset($clone->nid); unset($clone->vid); node_save($clone);
