FRUSTRATED...2 DON'T KNOW IF YOU RECEIVED FRUSTRATED 1...
I have a section PHOTOLINKS which I am happy with so far...
However, now I want to create another Section [eg.. PHOTOLINKS_VANCOVER] with the Exact same fields, requirements, etc... which I will post to a different php page and have different Users posting to it. I presume HOPEFULLY, that I can go into the existing sections and rename anything in the code from PHOTOLINKS to PHOTOLINKS_VANCOVER, and save the code to a different page... I would also authorize different users with permission as SECTION, WRITER to post to PHOTOLINK_VANCOVER. Yes? No? What Then????? Note.. I wish to create many different PHOTOLINK_???? for different towns and villages!
Please reply asap... I'm rapidly becoming a basketcase.
Regards,
Bob

Hi Bob,
Nice to hear from you! :) I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to do, but here's my first guess. Let me know if this is correct. You want to duplicate a section, but with a different name. Is that right?
If it is, here's how.
- Log in to your site with FTP. Look in cmsAdmin/data/schema/ for a file called PHOTOLINKS.ini.php (or similar).
- Copy that file to cmsAdmin/data/schemaPresets/
Now when you create a new section under: Admin > Section Editors > Add New Section, you should be able to select a preset called "PHOTOLINKS", and give it another name to create a duplicate section.
Hope that helps! Is that what you want to do?
