Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

If someone can help it would be great!!

We have started using Mantis and really like it. We are using Parent Projects and sub projects to seperate different parts of our business, we are also using custom fields for signoff and SOx compliance.
Since we have LOTS of custom fileds and catagories it is becoming difficult to creat new sub projects. Has anyone come up with or discovered a way to clone a project to include all Catagories, custom fields and users?

Thanks for the help or input.

Once you create a project, you should be able to go to the Manage Page of the new project and copy categories and custom fields from another project.

I know that catagories can be copied from one project to another as a "group" in one command. Custom fields are probably the biggest issue, You have to copy each custom field one at a time, THEN go back and set the order again, one at a time. I think this is the must dificult part of setting up a new project.
So in my origonal question, catagories was a bad addition, but custom fields and users, those would be great if there was the same "copy from project" just like catagories.
I am trying to figure out if I can add that button and creat the code to do it, but I am not a programmer, so I am flying blind. :D
