How do I copy / duplicate a program (clone)?

You can clone an existing program from its Dashboard using the Duplicate button, or the list of existing programs.


You can clone any program created in Evalato. When you go to the program's Dashboard, you will see a Duplicate button to create a copy of that program.


Alternatively, go to the Main menu and click the name of the organization with the program you wish to clone. You will see the Organization dashboard with a list of your programs. To clone a program use the contextual button that looks like a downwards pointing arrow, located at the end of each row.


Regardless of which option you use, here’s what gets copied over from the original program:

  • name of the program (adds a “cloned” to the name to avoid confusion), you can rename the program from Settings > General > Program basics;

  • the language of the program, as well as the dates and times of the program’s registration and submission phases, again changeable from Settings > General > Program basics;

  • the registration limit and type can be changed from Settings > Registration > Registration limit;

  • the voting rounds, complete with the dates for accepting votes (which can be changed from Evaluation > Rounds);

  • the rest of the program settings (registration form, application categories, application forms, currency, payment settings, and automatic emails).

  • Any special offers and conversion triggers used in the original program.
