No target selected

Target selected image

Save reference

Save target

Copy Reference to target
Copies all fields from the reference to the target, this is useful when there are lots of fields in common.
Be careful: When you use copy reference, although the language of the target will be set automatically, all other fields will be copied. Most of the time you will have to modify Title, alias, category at least.
