What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
Say you have an older world - one you're scrapping - but there are still gems of good ideas you want to keep or repurpose for a new world. Currently, the process is to go to each individual article's edit page, click on Additional Actions, then transfer the article. I would suggest a way to speed this process along by adding the option to transfer an article to Athena (Categories and Articles page), maybe under additional actions similar to assigning parent articles/categories on Athena.How does this feature request address the current situation?
Like the ability to add a subscriber group to an article through Athena, this would help users quickly move articles to the destination world.The Team's Response
I was planning to implement this but it has achieved so very little support within the voting period. The truth is that this is a painful process when you are trying to move your articles from one world to another in mass but it's hardly the case. Putting it on a very used interface in the eyes of people that will never use it will make that interface more clunky with little benefit and in fact causing more clutter. A different solution is required for this possibly its own "transfer" interface Consider rethinking the implementation and resubmitting

on 2021-04-26 06:23Yes - I sometimes want to duplicate articles in multiple worlds or, as the original poster said, transfer articles to a new world. Surely other people want to do this too? And when transfering multiple articles, a smoother system would be hugely beneficial
