Hello, I rely heavily on the One-Click apps, in particular, the WordPress/Ubuntu.
However, after getting one setup, I always do the same post-install steps (mainly configuring).
Is there a way to privately fork the one-click apps, so I can pre-config these a little to my linking?

That’s certainly possible with User-data on Droplet creation but it depends on what all you need to pre-config.
Refer: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/droplets/resources/metadata/ https://blog.digitalocean.com/automating-application-deployments-with-user-data/
Alternatively, an easier workaround would be configuring a fresh droplet with everything and then creating a base snapshot of that droplet . This snapshot can be used to spin new droplets further. You will just your own snapshot instead of one-clicks to deploy droplets.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
