 * Hi [@cloudduster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cloudduster/),
 * you can filter out the custom fields while cloning by adding their names in the`
   Do not copy these fields` under `Settings`→`Duplicate Post`, tab `What to copy`.
   You can also use the * wildcard to match multiple names.
 * Hope this helps!
