Feature #6965

Option to Copy Subtasks when copying an issue
Added by John S almost 14 years ago.
Updated about 12 years ago.
Description
I am wondering if there is a way to make the copy function, copy the subtasks related to it? This functionality is similar to the move function where if you move a main task, all the main tasks sub-tasks are moved as well.
Maybe there should be an option on the copy and move pages that lets you say wether or not you want to also copy/move the subtasks associated to the main task.
I couldn't find any open issues related to this so I am logging this as a feature request.
Thanks,
John

Anyone able to give guidance on how to do this? I am trying to make this change on my own. I believe the change needs to be made in the issues.rb model and the issue_moves\new.rhtml view... perhaps changes to the issue_moves_controller.rb file need to be made as well... and the en.yml file?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Patch can be found in #7023.
Hi,
I also was looking for a solution to copy all subtasks when copying the main task. In addition it was necessary for me to allow copying across projects including all subtasks. The author of all newly created tasks should be automatically set to the user who copied the main task (#8452).
I merged all these approaches into a plugin for 1.3.1.
Please feel free to test it.

Great plugin Tiemo, thanks a lot! I was looking for something like this long time ago!
One thing: it doesn't copy the relationships between issues along them. Also, when I tested it, it assigned the target version to the child issues, but not to the parent one. Can you take a look at that?
Many thanks!
Sounds like perfect feature but doesn't work with 1.4.2 :(
rake db:migrate_plugins RAILS_ENV=production
(in /usr/share/redmine)
undefined method `move_to_project_without_transaction' for class `Issue'
Tasks: TOP => db:migrate_plugins => environment
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
Plugin works just fine on 1.3.0. Thanks a lot!

Anybody tested the plugin successfully with 2.0.3?
To me this seems rather a major bug to be fixed within the core.
