Copy a Node Page

Here is a copy of a module I wrote sometime ago to clone a node and have updated for 4.7. Make a directory under modules called clone, and place the code below in a file called clone.module. Enable the module. If people have permission a new link will be added labeled clone. Click the link and the node will be copied and the user placed on the edit page for the copy.

<?php

/**
 * Implementation of hook_perm().
 */
function clone_perm() {
  return array('clone node');
}

/**
 * Implementation of hook_link().
 */
 
function clone_link($type, $node = NULL) {
	$links = array();
	
  if ($node != NULL) {
		$links[] = l(t('clone'), 'clone/'. $node->nid);
    return $links;
  }
}

function clone_menu($may_cache) {
  $items = array();

  if ($may_cache) {
    $items[] = array('path' => 'clone', 'title' => t('clone'),
      'callback' => 'clone_node',
      'access' => user_access('clone node'),
      "type" => MENU_CALLBACK);
  }
  
  return $items;
}

function clone_node($nid)
{
	global $user;
	
	$node = node_load($nid);
	
	$node->nid = NULL;
	$node->name = $user->name;
	$node->created = 0;
	
	node_save($node);
	
	drupal_goto('node/'. $node->nid . '/edit');
}
    
?>

That is not so important for me. I think it would be quicker to make new form than to modify modules and test them.
I don't know how you could generate component IDs when the clone is generated. If you want to do a try, I just can be a beta tester. Sorry not to help more.
I'd rather prefer adding i18n to the name of the fields of the webfom. But that is another challenge.
Thanx.

I guess its not worth it for me to invest any time or money in now, since this module is definitely more of a luxury rather than a necessity for me. Thank you though for the response and the module itself.
