Move Content

Tagged:  

We are working with version 8.7. and I am having the following problem. I would need to move items (tasks - milestones - messages - files) from one project to another (newly created) one. Is there any simple way to do that, or to I have to copy - paste and delete each item. I think it will be available in 8.8. but I still have to go through the update process and test 8.8. on our server for stability which will take some time.
Can I change this maybe direct in the database (still I only have very basic SQL knowledge. Thx for any advise.....

If you need to move (not copy) items, it is quite simple. Something like this needs to be executed on the database:

update set project_id = where project_id =

Suppose you want the move all items from project 9 to project 10:

update pp087_project_task_lists set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9
update pp087_project_tasks set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9
update pp087_project_milestones set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9
update pp087_project_messages set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9
update pp087_project_files set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9
update pp087_project_folders set project_id = 10 where project_id = 9

The project_id is visible in the URL when you view the project (&id=...)

Hi ,
this helped me tremendously again today. So a move option for "non sql users" would be great.... but for me this works very good now, thx
