 * Hello,
 * Trying to use the duplicate_post_create_duplicate function found here;
    [https://duplicate-post.lopo.it/docs/developers-guide/functions-template-tags/duplicate_post_create_duplicate/](https://duplicate-post.lopo.it/docs/developers-guide/functions-template-tags/duplicate_post_create_duplicate/)
 * It notes that post_id is supported;
 * > $post
   >  (int|WP_Post|null) post object to be cloned.
 * But checking source after I got the message;
    “Copy features for this post type
   are not enabled in options page”
 * I noticed the function used $post object without checking for an int and switching
   post_id to a post object;
    `if (!duplicate_post_is_post_type_enabled($post->post_type)&&
   $post->post_type != 'attachment')`
 * I’m going to switch in my code to use a post object, but might be a good call
   to do a check for ID(int) and do a get_post before using $post object.
 * Thank you
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fthe-duplicate_post_create_duplicate-function-doesnt-support-post_id%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
