Import Pages while creating a new project using a template project

Hi Ilija, Team,

While creating a new project, there is an option to use another project as a template. This is a great feature and saves a lot of time.

Though it does not import pages, discussions or files. It imports checklists, tickets and people.

Please add support to import Pages. (I would say even discussions and files).

Refer to a use case here: http://getsatisfaction.com/appsmagnet/topics/activecollab_project_brief

Pages can be used as project specification, documentation placeholders. Importing them will really be useful!

Do we have an eta or any other information on templating these features? I am looking at refining my communication processes and would really like the discussions and pages to be importable. I know it would definitely be valuable to our company.

Hi Ta Mel,

So, we do not provide estimates for any of the future releases or features. We'll consider this, but I really can't make any promises.

We just released this hack. Read more about acHack - Copy Pages and Discussions with Project

BTW, that page also has a tutorial video on how to create and use project templates to bring structure, organization and best practices to your projects.
