# Copying a Page

Re-use a page or a tree structure you have previously created by copying the parent page and its child pages to a different section within the site structure.

When you copy a parent page all of its child pages are also copied, by default. You can choose if you want to copy the child pages or not. You can also choose whether the links should be automatically updated or continue to link to the original pages.

You can copy a page in two ways:

## Option 1

1. Go to **Content**.
2. Right-click the page you wish to copy and select **Copy**. Alternatively, click **•••** next to the page, select **Do something else** and click **Copy**.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you select **Relate to original**, Umbraco will create a relationship between the original and copied page. This relationship can be used to programmatically link the pages - For example, linking two pages in a multilingual setup. This relationship **does not** sync the content between the original and copied page.
