# Copy/Paste

Copying and pasting is the most efficient way to quicken your workflow.

Not only can you copy paste elements, and rules or stylings in different ways. These copied rules/elements can be pasted on to any other website installation.

## Copy Duplicate VS. Copy Linked

In Cwicly you can choose to copy a block in two distinct ways: copy duplicate or copy linked.

### Copy Duplicate

Duplicating is the traditional way of copying a block since you’re literally duplicating a block’s style, that’s it.

### Copy Linked

With copying and linking, not only are you copying the original element’s styles, but this new element is also linked to the first.

{% hint style="info" %}
Allows you to have one main block that controls the style of other linked blocks.
{% endhint %}

## Blocks & IDs

You can copy/paste blocks using the block menu toolbar or using keyboard shortcuts. It depends on your preference.

[Blocks](/cwicly/copy-paste/blocks.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Block Styles

You can copy/paste styles.

{% content-ref url="/pages/jdz8SpQH62CnYgLHkR2F" %}
[Block Styles](/cwicly/copy-paste/block-styles.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Classes & IDs

You can copy class names directly from the class & ID fields or with the Cwicly Navigator, using the right-click context menu.

{% content-ref url="/pages/COP7VZnFc5VmGr8BNxZJ" %}

{% endcontent-ref %}

## Global Styles

You can copy global style properties to improve your workflow.

{% content-ref url="/pages/1ToOL5aRGfS0nVXkM888" %}
[Global Styles](/cwicly/copy-paste/global-styles.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

## Global Classes & Stylesheets

You can copy/paste the whole Global Classes & Stylesheets tab, as well as the global classes and stylesheet tabs, as well as individual global classes and stylesheets.

{% content-ref url="/pages/CFi5II7kqcoNclqXLC6f" %}
[Global Classes & Stylesheets](/cwicly/copy-paste/global-classes-and-stylesheets.md)
