How to set default status when moving an issue to a different project?

Philip Ng

When moving an issue from one project to another, it asks you what status you want it to be changed to. Is there a way to change what the default target status is selected? It keeps defaulting to Blocked but I want it to default to "To Do". It used to default to "To Do"

Hi @Philip Ng 

I do not believe setting such a default is possible, based upon this 20 year old suggestion to add that feature:

Kind regards,
