Duplicate particle created in menu item

  • Duplicate particle created in menu item

    • It is obviously simple to duplicate a particle created in module manager, but what about when created in Menus:New Item > Menu Item Type > Gantry 5 Themes > Custom page > Options > Pick a Particle.
      Is there a way of doing this please?

    • Menu manager > menu item > save as copy.

    • Hi Mark
      Perhaps I should have been more specific. I have created a particle directly from a menu item that I want to use in a different module position on another page. So the copy menu item does not provide the solution. I really need the particle to be available in module manager.
      In general it seems better to create particles from within module manager rather than menu > custom gantry page.
      Thanks
      Andrew

    • Ok there's no way to copy that then. Yes you're right it's better to use the particle in modules or directly on the layout unless you specifically want the particle to be rendered as a component in the "page content" particle of your layout (which is the purpose of the Gantry 5 "custom" page).
