Doesn't copy excerpt

[k1sul1]

I have this fancy native excerpt, but it didn't make it to the new post. Should be rather easy to fix.

I can make this optional and to be enabled with a filter. Why not make it default? Excerpt field is by default hidden and will cause confusion if stuff is copied there and user doesn't remember to translate it.

I would recommend that when you will use excerpt copying, the excerpt field is forced to be visible. I'll look into this enhancement.

Fine by me.

Another suggestion: if the excerpt field isn't hidden, copy the excerpt to the new post.

If you want to carry over the excerpt, it is dead simple. Add this line anywhere after $from_post_obj = get_post($from_post_id); in the copy_content_and_title() method, for example line 82.

// copy excerpt
$post->post_excerpt = $from_post_obj->post_excerpt;
