How do I duplicate a project?

collywobbles

I can see the Duplicate option when I right click a project but I can't find how it works. Nothing in the manual.

Thanks!

Just click this option , choose a new name and make any necessary edits if you want then activate the project. That's it.

collywobbles

Yeah but nothing happens when I click duplicate...

It's working good in my vps. Try restarting the program or/and the vps/pc.

Hmmm weird. I am on 4.94. I have just restarted after installing windows updates and wanted to duplicate a project (for the first time).

I am clicking duplicate on the very top level project (not any inner tier), nothing happens

collywobbles

Okay, it works on an inner tier project but not a top level project group, so I can't copy an entire structure in one go.

Might be quite neat to be able to copy a whole group structure? 

mamadou

Yes , you can't duplicate the entire structure ( tier 1 + tier 2 ..etc in one go ) you have to do it manually one by one then edit them to get the same structure again. I think it will be good if the program asks if you want to duplicate the entire tiers structures as it is or only the current selected project. It will be a good addition.

collywobbles

Agreed. I just did that myself mamadou. I will add it as a suggestion

But make sure you clear the traget URL cache and history for those new projects. At least that was has been said a bunch of times. If that is not correct, let us know. I've been doing that for each one though.

Sven

Yes it has been said but it is incorrect. A duplication is just duplicating the things you see when editing a project.

Thanks Sven. Sometimes things get repeated, and then it becomes accepted as the truth.

Sven

No problem @ron
