# Rewrite & Republish Programatically

 * Hi,
 * I have been trying to find a way to create a draft post using the rewrite and
   republish feature programmatically but I am struggling to find one.
 * Looking at the developer docs on your site, there are certain functions available
   for developers, such as duplicate_post_create_duplicate() but I can’t see anything
   for duplicate_post_for_rewrite_and_republish(). Is this possible or can someone
   help me to get this working?
 * It is almost essential functionality that I would need for an upcoming build 
   and can’t see any other way to do this.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thank you in advance.
 * Phil

 * Hi [@philsola](https://wordpress.org/support/users/philsola/)
 * To create a draft post using the rewrite and republish feature programmatically,
   you can use something like this:
 * use Yoast\WP\Duplicate_Post\Post_Duplicator;
 * $post_duplicator = new Post_Duplicator();
 * $new_post_id = $post_duplicator->create_duplicate_for_rewrite_and_republish( 
   $post );

 * Amazing, thank you so much for your help Mushrit!
 * I’ll give this a go!
