Duplicate or remove groups and topics

You’re able to duplicate your group and all its topics, duplicate individual topics, or move a topic from one group to another.

Important: When you duplicate a group or a topic, student videos and comments within those topics are not duplicated. You must manually duplicate and add student videos to topics.

How to duplicate a group or topic

When you’re an educator of a group or topic, you’re able to duplicate either one. All custom settings you changed for the group or topic carry over to the duplicate. When you duplicate a topic, the topic remains in the original group and you’re able to select in which group to put the duplicate.

Important: You’re only able to duplicate groups and topics on Flip for web. Currently, this isn’t available on the Flip app.
