Hello, I though we have a bug in the “Duplicate tracker items” option, but it seems this is a feature as that is in the code since 2012 and has been improved for Cartography. (Thanks Victor for digging in the code 🙏) In short, when you duplicate and item that is used through an item-link in another tracker, the action will silently creates children of this items. In detail, see : https://dev.tiki.org/item8169-Trackers-Duplicate-a-trackeritem-on-an-item-used-in-another-tracker-will-create-duplication-for-all-the-items-where-the-original-item-is-used With user interface and trackers improvement added our capacity to create more and more complex cases it look to me that this need some revision. For example duplicating an item with children using a user-selector field and auto-assign to creator the newly created item will be all assign to this user.😳 I promptly added some documentation and I would like to improve the duplicate option but I wonder what other people think. I suggest we discuss in the comments of the tracker item (https://dev.tiki.org/item8169-Trackers-Duplicate-a-trackeritem-on-an-item-used-in-another-tracker-will-create-duplication-for-all-the-items-where-the-original-item-is-used) but if people prefer to discuss it here… Bernard _______________________________________________ TikiWiki-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tikiwiki-devel
