    Hello,

    Clone/New Draft posts not copy same/identical slug from old post.
    Sometime is shorter…and other times is longer.

    Using Yoast here for edit snippet – SEO title, slug, meta description and focus keyword.

    Hello,

    “Using a Post Duplicator
    If you use a plugin to duplicate your posts, you could run into issues, because as well as duplicating the post content, it will likely also duplicate the post meta that tells Jetpack that the post has already been Publicized, so when you publish the new post, Publicize will fail.

    There are several possible solutions for this:

    Don’t start from a published post. Duplicate a draft post.
    If the plugin includes an option like “Don’t duplicate post meta” – enable that option.
    If the plugin doesn’t include that option, ask the plugin author if they included a filter to prevent duplicating the post meta.
    If there is no filter, ask the plugin author to exclude all post meta containing the ????_wpas???? string from ever being duplicated.”

    Can you fix that? Publicize to twitter will use old feature image instead new one :(((

    Thank you

    Nicos

    Hi @nicorel,
    every custom field beginning with _wpas is filtered out already…
    Plus, I’m not sure custom fields by Publicize are used to store the featured image used by Twitter, from what I know about Publicize…

    What happens if you tweet the cloned post by hand without using Publicize?
    Can you send me the URL of a post who’s experiencing the issue?

    About the previous issue with the slug, can you give me some examples?
