Description

Problem:
Currently in Vikunja, buckets are tied to their original project/board and cannot be moved directly to another project. Users must recreate buckets manually or move tasks individually, which is time-consuming and inefficient when reorganising projects or restructuring workflows.

Proposed Solution:
Add the ability to move a bucket from one project/board to another.

Move Bucket
• Option in bucket context menu: Move
• Allow user to:
• Choose destination project/board
• Choose position within the destination project (optional; default = end)
• Preserve tasks, ordering, and metadata

Default behaviour:
• Bucket retains all tasks and associated metadata (labels, attachments, comments, assignees, subtasks).

See an example of how it is done in Trello:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/8e0dccd3-82ac-415a-972a-d1f855421506?target=https://github.com

Benefits:
• Enables easier project reorganisation
• Supports evolving workflows and restructuring
• Avoids manual recreation of buckets and tasks

Which alternatives did you consider using instead?
