A "Copy Page" button just like "Add Page" button

Permalink
I am using the Amiant Photo Gallery block to display photos on a site. It works very nicely, but my client will want to add more galleries in the future. The best way for them to do this is to just create another subpage under Photo Gallery.

What I want is to give them a button that lets them copy an existing gallery page so they can just modify that instead of having to reset all the options every time. It looks like that functionality already exists (http://www.smartwebprojects.net/concrete5-blog/197/how-to-copy-pages/), but I don't want to give these users access to the dashboard.

Any ideas? I'm not terribly familiar with developing for C5 yet, but catch on quickly.

Thank

edit page/move delete, copy the current page on to another page, one of the options is to copy it below the page you dragged it onto.

Right, but that requires giving the users access to the dashboard doesn't it? I'm trying to avoid that. These are users who are not familiar with online tools (a historical organization run by an older generation) so I want to keep it as simple as possible. At the moment they never need to leave the page they are editing, and if possible I would like to keep it that way.

I guess I'm wondering #1 what do I have to do to get another button on the edit panel that shows up on the page you are about to edit, #2 how would I control the functionality of that button, and #3 how can I hook into the existing code that does what you just mentioned above?

no, its in the edit bar dialogue, so they wouldn't have to leave.
