extend page clone module

[Fantomas]

Hi all,

I'm still new to processwire and now I have to create the first hook.

I need to modify the page-clone module, so there is a field in pages that has to be empty after cloning the page. How could I start this task?

What you are looking for is: Pages::cloned

Take a look at @BitPoet's module: https://github.com/BitPoet/ProcessPageCloneAdaptUrls/blob/master/ProcessPageCloneAdaptUrls.module#L30

Or, even better since it avoids a roundtrip through the database, would be Pages::cloneReady, which is called after the page is copied in memory and before it is saved to the database. Usage is the same, sans the call to $newpage->save(). I'm using Pages::cloned in my module because I need the ID of the new page which is only available after it has been saved.

Works perfect. Thanks!
