 * First, I really like this plugin, it will make things SO much easier.
 * I have tried several times to duplicate a grid, and it seems to break things.
   The either the original grid or the new one is missing items. Saving the page
   and refreshing helps somewhat, but not totally. Is this a known issue?
 * I’m using WP 5.2.2 with the Gutenberg editor.
 * Thanks

 * Hello there,
 * thanks so much for trying out Grids and reporting this.
 * We have tried to replicate your issue on our local install running the latest
   version of Grids and WordPress, and we were able to duplicate sections with no
   problems.
 * However, the issue might depend on how your grid is actually constructed and 
   what content it has. Would you mind to export the page (either via the WordPress
   exporter, or using a plugin such as Zippy), and link it here, so that we can 
   test your issue with your exact content?
 * Other than that, there may be a plugin conflicting (and for that we’d need to
   give a quick check to your WordPress admin), but I think it makes more sense 
   to check for issues with the grid structure/content first.
 * Let us know!

 * Hi there,
 * thank you for the provided information. We have released an update to the plugin
   that should fix a glitch that prevented duplicated sections to look correctly,
   while their data was indeed saved correctly.
 * Could you please confirm that the issue has been solved?
 * Thank you! 🙂
