Description

When importing new fields using the tracker import "Import Fields" button, they all need a different FIELDXX text.
If they have the same [FIELDXX] line, only the last one is imported and all the others are discarded.

This is unexpected because the field number is ignored anyway unless "Preserve field IDs" is checked below.

This is a UX failure because the common use case is

  • export a field
  • duplicate and adapt in a text editor
  • import new fields
Solution

Fixed in 21.x, a bittoo late for Tiki 20.x
