Thank you for developing and improving planka! We are happy to use planka at Stengel Engineering!

Is there an option to implement copy and move functionality for boards and lists?

  • Moving boards and lists could help us when we re-organize the collaborators working together in common projects. Currently, alike functionality is implemented for cards, which can be moved to arbitrary others lists on arbitrary boards.
  • Copying boards and lists could help us with new tasks being similar to existing ones (our projects often have very similar constellations like e.g. milestones). It also might be used - for the entire planka project - for the implementation of template functionality.

Since we use planka in a commercial environment, we can also provide financial support for the development - details to be discussed! Nevertheless, the development shall of course be part of the open source hosted here.

Hi! We're very happy to hear that you're using Planka 🙂 As far as I know, Nick is trying to contact you directly.

@meltyshev I anyone working on moving the order. Can I pick this up ? Also if yes can we use new framer motion reorder to achive this.

Hi! I'm not quite sure what you mean by "moving the order", could you please explain it?

But moving a card/list/board is already in Planka and we're using react-beautiful-dnd for that 🤔

As I understand it, the feature request is about moving boards between projects or lists between boards and duplicating boards or lists, but it doesn't require drag and drop, just need to select a destination project or board. So I'm not quite sure what you want to add :)

Any updates, after more than a year? :P
I would also love to move boards between projects in an easy way. Now only way seems to be to create a new empty board in the target project with all lists needed, then move all the cards one by one. This is not very convenient as you could imagine.. :)

+1 ... searching around for a way to move a board from projectX -> projectY as projects scope tend to change often.
