Copied
I am trying to create duplicate pages that have input fields.
When I create a copy of those pages via Organize Pages, it creates exact duplicate pages where if I add an entry in one of the fields, it applies to that field for all pages I have duplicated instead of the edit remaining on a single page.
My desire is to duplicate these pages, but allow me to input different values for the data inputs without that data spilling over to the other duplicated pages.

In order to do that the fields on all of these pages have to have a unique name. This can be achieved by manually renaming the fields, or by using a script to automatically do it for you (by defining the page as a Template object and then spawning new copies of it).
The latter can be easily achieved using this (paid-for) tool I've developed, if you're interested:
