Copy/Duplicate tasks
A lot of my to dos are duplicates of a task but with slightly different specific information such as ad numbers or names to be completed. Would make adding them a lot faster to simply be able to copy the whole the whole to do and simply change a couple of words.
Hi All,
https://blog.freedcamp.com/2018/03/23/duplicating-and-copy-task/
We will update https://freedcamp.uservoice.com/forums/126945-suggestions-for-features/suggestions/10032216-move-or-copy-tasks-in-the-same-or-another-project when ‘Move’ action is added and post here a status update when copy task list action will be completed later this month.
Regards,
Igor

A way of working around a proper "duplicate Task Group" function might be the ability to Add a Task Group via plain text. This way, we users can copy-paste our Task hierarchy and with appropriate text edits. For example:
# Task Group 1
## First Task
* Red
* Green
* Blue## Second Task
# Task Group 2
## First Task
* Yellow
* Orange
* Purple## Second Task
... imagine being able to create all those Tasks and Groups with a simple copy-paste or upload.

Now that sub tasks are working so great. We need to be able to duplicate tasks (with the sub tasks) for things that are recurring without having to use the project template.

Recurrent tasks are tracked here - https://freedcamp.uservoice.com/forums/126945-suggestions-for-features/suggestions/4956225-recurrence-in-todos-events-in-calendar-applicatio and will be added later this year.

We do a lot of project based work, but also have recurring weekly tasks. We'd like to be able to have all of them included in our task lists. Is there a way that there could be a recurring feature -- recurring each week, or each month, so the to-dos are automatically duplicated?

Agreed. Many of the things we work on are duplications-with-variations. Being able to duplicate an existing Task, or duplicate an existing Task Group would be super-awesome.

Hi Igor,
Usually it is duplicating an individual TODO numerous times within the same project because the requirements for different projects are different. As I said in the description, this would be super helpful in monitoring when ads are due and where their at in progression because the info in the TODO will be basically the same with a couple of small changes.
Thanks!

Hi Jay,
Thanks for posting. May I ask if this is needed to create a duplicate TODO in the same project or it is a bunch of tasks you want to move forward from an existing project to a new one? Also if practically you need to clone a lot of tasks at once or doing them one by one will be OK with you?
Cheers,
Igor
