Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Wondering if "Entity Clone" can be added not only to the contextual links on the content page, but also to the inline contextual editing (the pencil icon on a node view page).
I've got a use case where I'm rendering multiple nodes on a page - the nodes in a heirarichcal structure. It would be handly if I could select "Clone" direct from the view page pencil icon.
(I gave implementing this a shot but hit a brick wall - I might come back to it)

tim-dielsThe patch works for 2.x and should address the latest version. So changing to 2.x
Works perfectly and tested with also with the patch to limit permissions per content type per role. So RTBC for me.

kristen pol@Rajeshreeputra Thank you for merging this work. If you are not familiar, community members who worked on the issue can be given "issue credit" by checking the boxes next to their names and saving a comment. For example, the patch was tested in #3 and #4. To encourage community members to test this module's patches, I encourage you to give credit when people not only add patches but also review and test patches. The credit system relies on maintainers to decide who should get this credit and it has to be done manually. Only those who upload patches or create MRs get automatic credit (which can be removed if maintainers don't think it's earned). Thanks.
