Creates one or more clones of a selected record.
Useful for creating new records (especially sources) based on a template.
It is best to add this plugin to the Tools menu and run it from there after selecting the
required “Template” record in the Records Window.
A message confirms creation of new record(s) and (if only one) full details are optionally shown as a result set.
You then need to change the name/title of each new record and complete any required non-template fields.
The template record can contain blank fields if wanted, and links to other records.
User is prompted to confirm that an Individual or Family record should be cloned.
Note that if an Individual record is cloned the new record will contain an empty Family-as-Spouse link
which can be either appropriately completed or deleted.
Updated 14 Jan 2021 to work with FH7 as well as FH5 & FH6.
Updated 02 Aug 2021 to v3.0 to also allow multiple (2 to 50) clones; default behaviour same as previous version.
