Topic templates

How to duplicate your topics or create a new topic from an existing one.

The topic templates are helpful when you end up writing always the same tasks, description and settings. You can create a template for a recurring topic, set all the tasks needed and add a short description. Then anytime you have to do the job again, you can just create a topic duplicated from this template.

To use it :

Duplicate topic

• go to a topic page you want to duplicate

• in the contextual menu choose the option "Duplicate"

• a pop-up show with the details of the topic you want to copy

• you can edit summary, description, and topic properties of your preference

• you can choose to include duplicate of comment and task of the topic

• the topic is duplicated

Duplicate topic option in topic page

Choose to include duplicate of comment and task

Create a new topic from an existing one

• go to a topic list and click "Create a topic" button

• a pop-up show with an option to "Create from an existing topic" with a selection list of all your topics

• choose the existing topic you want to duplicate

• you can choose to include duplicate of comment and task of the topic

• the topic is created from an existing topic

Limitations

• It is not possible to duplicate topic to another project but from team to team inside the same project

• If a project member had access to the topic in the team where it was before and is not part of the new team, he will not have access to it any more. So he need to ask project admin to invite him to the new team.

• As teams could have distinct kanban workflows, duplicated topic to a new team is automatically set to "TO DO" state. So you need to change its workflow state if necessary.
