I'm sure that you could do it directly with SQL but you also could write a
script that could do it with Django's orm, something like (I haven't tested
this so it may require some tweaking):
from copy import deepcopy
def copy_page(portfolio):
portfolio_copy = deepcopy(portfolio)
portfolio_copy.id = None
portfolio_copy.save()
for item in portfolio.items.all():
# replace the next line with actual logic that determines if the
item shouldn't be copied
if (do_not_copy):
continue
item_copy = deepcopy(item)
item_copy.portfolio = portfolio_copy
item_copy.save()
If you wanted to get really fancy you could even hook this up to the admin
somehow, rather than running it at the command line
