Transmogrifier allow copying of folders

Erich S. said: It was insinuated a while back, maybe a year ago, that this would be finally resolved in Jumpgate.  Maybe they will give us the ability to move folders in Jumpgate.  Maybe? That's what i'm hoping. But they've mostly been silent on this since then.

I wonder how much the high turnover at Roll20 affects initiatives like this? I noticed that the fellow who replied on this thread a year ago no longer shows as "Roll20 Team" but a lowly "Pro" user like ourselves. Searles is his name if I recall.  Did the work to make this pretty enough go out the door with him?

That'd make sense why so many projects seem to take forever and about every update is full of bugs if they have such a high turnover lately. 0_O

Roll20 please we still need this. :) 

For the same issue, i made a copy of my main campaign and then i deleted all the maps. This means the game maitained all macros, APIs, and monsters including all macros and settings and all i had to is upload new maps

One of the highest upvoted topics for years now. 

Yeah, +1 from me.

I wonder if we'll hit the 10 year mark of wanting this feature lol. 

Almost 10 years guys. We still need this. Cmon you can do it devs~ :) 

Once again, I find myself working on a game with Roll20, and once again its so much effort I see so many opportunities to improve the experience. I have a bunch of campaign info on a vastly over-sized campaign i am playing, that I made before I really understood some of the finer workings (limitations) of the platform. Now I want to bring a selection of content from that game into the much leaner smaller game I have set up to run just one Chapter of that campaign. Managable and neat. But omfg, I have to bring every separate page over - every single thing in the world, without any organisation other than an a-z index, and then i have to recreate folders and re-organise everything by hand.  Please f or the love of "why-are-we-paying-for-this" give us this improvement. Please. Plllleeeaaase! Organisation is the heart of content management - we need it! R20 needs it badly! would benefit from it a lot!

I have several hundred maps in a dozen or so folders. It would be so nice to have the ability to move the folders. The new improvement to condense categories in the transmogrifier is fluff compared to the heavy lifting it takes to move and re-order hundreds of maps much less handouts and such.

This would be AMAZING ! As Is.  and  yet  (2 years ago) We ALMOST had it too. I saw a working prototype. It worked well enough.  Simply  being able to see the folders and sheets would be huge if they don't want people moving whole folders. But NOTHING has been done. :/ It's baffling. Even the tool "characters" where you can port in your sheets doesn't have folders or any way to organize things. I guess they're cheaping out on storage?? I'm just baffled constantly on this.

It's nice to see that Roll20 is still rolling out changes to the system: primarily for the newest games and such. Yet they won't finish this working process so everyone can use it. If I played Daggerhard I am sure this new range thing would be great. But does it help anyone else? No, not really. 4th bubble on tokens? I'm all for it and I can use it myself. Being able to move folders of handouts, maps, characters, etc would surely trump all that in my opinion.

Or at the very least make it so we can organize things better or view what things are when we're moving.  We've been able to move character sheets out of game to store for awhile but no way to really organize them. That'd be a simple one.  The endless wait is real. 

Sure would be nice to move all of my folders from game to game without having to track if hundreds of maps and such copied over correctly.

Please roll20 please please please~
