Problem
When I copy a page with a Flow Board on it, the Flow Board data does not display upon saving the copied page in another space.
Reason
When moving a page the Flow Board data will continue to display on the page, regardless of it's origin and destination space.
When copying a page the Flow Board data will not display on the copied page/board. Have no fear - the Flow Board data is not lost. It still exists and displays on the original page/board.

Workaround
Full Disclosure
Our workaround requires using another one of our paid apps - MultiExcerpt. We promise this isn't some sort of evil plot. Only a workaround we thought of after a Flow Board user informed us they'd like this feature. Unfortunately, this is the only workaround we determined technically possible. Hopefully, you already have our MultiExcerpt app, making this an easy decision. If not, you can purchase it in the Marketplace. We completely understand if you don't want to.
The following requires the MultiExcerpt app
Navigate to your Flow Board home page
In page edit mode, add the MultiExcerpt macro
Move your Flow Board macro inside the MultiExcerpt macro (drag/drop or copy/paste)
Save/publish your page
Navigate to the page you want to display a copy of Flow Board
In page edit mode, add the MultiExcerpt Include macro
Fill out the macros required fields and save
Save/publish your page
Changes made to the Flow Board data on the 'copied board' will be reflected in the 'original board' and vice versa.
