Change REDMINE project name

Added by mark f over 3 years ago

I am currently using one main project name for all system activity.
I would like to create a new project name and use this new project name for a portion of the system activity while leaving the rest of the system activity to use the current (and different) project name.
So I would effectively need to change the project name for those REDMINE issues intended for the new project name and leave the other REDMINE issues with the current (and different) project name.
I believe I can change the project name for each of the existing issues one by one individually by updating the project name field within each issue with the new project name.
But I am not sure whether all the affected issues that I would need to change can be changed in any way in bulk.

Could anyone please offer some confirmation and/or help with this?
Thank you very much.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Do you want to move an issue of project A to project B?
If this is the case, you should be able to select another project while editing the issue. If you don't see the drop down list of projects it may be set to read only in the workflow. To edit a list of issues at once you can go to the issues table view, check them at the left side of the list and then right click on one of the selected issues and choose edit.

Yes, I would like to change the project name associated with specific issues from project A to project B. I can select another existing project while editing the issue. I would like to know if it is possible somehow to make a mass change of the project name for several issues all at one time. Does your last sentence explain how that can be done?

I have tested the process that you described in your last sentence and it does work and is very helpful. Thank you very much for your response and your help with this.
