Author Possible to copy postings between channels?

Not sure if this is possible but here is my question:
Is it possible to copy postings in one channel (site1) and paste them in
another channel (site2)? One thing to note is that these channels are to
separate channels which have separate template and resource galleries. Is
there a way to update the postings so that they use the templates from the
new channel (site2) and not the old one (site1) after copied?

Hi Kyle,

templates and channels are independend.
Means you can use any template in any channel.

But you could create a small tool using Publishing API that creates a new
posting and copies the placeholder content from the original posting into
the placeholders of the new posting in the desired channel and uses a
different template.

Cheers,
Stefan
