Unlinking Issues

Issues that are linked, either by copying the Issue within a Project or to another Project, through a Master/Subtask relationship, or directly from the Details or Edit page, can be "unlinked" if you no longer wish the two Issues to be associated with each other.  Issues that are linked together can only be unlinked from the Details view of the Issue.

To unlink an Issue from another issue:

  1. Open the Issue in the Details view from the FootPrints Homepage or click the Details option, if you are viewing the Issue in an edit window.
  2. Select the Unlink button:
  3. For Copied Issues—Next to Linked To, select the Unlink button.  The current Issue is no longer linked to the previously linked issue.  The Details view refreshes without the Linked To information.
  4. For Master/Subtasks—In the Related Issues section in the Details view of the Master or the Subtask, select the Unlink button.  The Issue is no longer linked.  If a Master Issue only has one Subtask, unlinking the two issues removes special properties from both Issues; they revert to regular Issues.
  5. For Global Issues and GlobalLinks—In the Related Issues section in the Details view of the Global or the GlobalLink, select the Unlink button.  The Issue is no longer linked.
