Our site has long an complex category menu, where products are placed multible places.
I really need a function where you can copy a category with the assigned products.

Hello Morten!
Thanks for a comment.
Have you tried to use copy-paste of Categories in the Category menu?
See the screenshot.

The problem is that this function will clone the products, I need it to be the same products, just assigned to the copied Category.

ok, how about this?
step-by-step algorithm:

1. Copy-paste selected category without products
2. Assign existed products to the newly created category.

Yes that is the way I need to do.
But the Category I need to copy has 25 sub-categories and 10 sub-sub-categories and 1000 products.
A function like; "copy category and subcategory and assign products " will save us weeks for manuel work a year.
