I’d like to be able to copy/paste modules between templates, along with their CSS styling class(es) (not just swap a module).

Hi Folks,

I wanted to share a couple of updates related to this post. We recently released Sections for pages, which are full width chunks of a page that you can build and then save to reuse on other pages. This new feature is a great way to copy and paste content from one page to another. [Here’s some more info about how to create a section in the page editor](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/website-pages/edit-page-content-in-a-drag-and-drop-area#create-a-section). Sections can also be created by developers who want to add custom HTML and CSS, and those Sections will also appear as add-able in the page editor. [Here’s some info about developer-created Sections](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/cms/building-blocks/templates/drag-and-drop-areas/sections#reusable-sections).

We aren’t currently planning on a full copy/paste of single modules between pages, but we are tentatively planning on a copy/paste of styles from one module to another sometime next year. I can keep folks posted on this thread and would love to know if that would be helpful for you all.

Thanks!

Katie
