## Description

Simple plugin which lets you manage Screen Options of all the users on your blog.

First set your own Screen Options and then **clone them across all users** with 
our plugin.

A huge time saver. Enjoy!

Note: Multisite is not supported very well, plugin doesn’t distinguish between individual
blogs.

### 󠀁[Excellent Solution](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excellent-solution-60/)󠁿

This plugin has solved one of my long standing issues with a Multisite build. It’s
small and functional and we love it. During the process we needed to contact the
developers – which you can do googling the plugin and going to the developers home
site (sorry I can’t post the direct link). The fix was agile and simple – something
I could do myself and this is not the perfect plugin for us. I highly recommend 
both this plugin and the developers.

The clone tool did not show all users and did not clone to all users. This was not
what I expected and did not serve my purpose, at all.

Thanks for adding this to WP community! Can it be deactivated after you’ve run the
script?

 [oribengal](https://profiles.wordpress.org/oribengal/) 3, Abril de 2017

Bought a plugin that works great… but only if you turn on a certain setting in the
Screen Options. I needed it to work for every user, and this FV Clone Screen Options
saved the day… quickly.
