How do I duplicate an app with a new domain url?

Help

Hi everyone,

I have a workflow question. I am currently building a “Base App” (or Template) in v0 that has all my standard setup and UI foundations.

I want to use this base as a starting point for multiple future apps without having to re-prompt the initial setup every time.

My goal is to:

  1. Build the template once.

  2. Duplicate/Fork that specific state.

  3. Continue building on the copy to create a distinct app with its own unique deployment URL.

MY ISSUE: The ‘Duplicate’ button only duplicates the app but when I publish it, it publishes on the same URL, or if I change the URL, the previous version URL gets updated as well.

Is there a recommended workaround for managing boilerplate templates?

Thanks!

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Replying to my OWN solution:
**
Here is how to manually clone a project:**

Step 1: Download your original app code as a ZIP file.
Step 2: Start a new project (new chat) in v0.
Step 3: Upload the ZIP file into the chat. You will see an “Upload a Project” prompt—click Start Chat.
Step 4: When you are ready to publish, update the Domain URL.

Result: Your original app URL remains unchanged, and your new project gets its own unique URL.
