I'm attempting to use webcollab for my business. but I'm having issues cloning projects. I have a clone template project set up with dates, but when I clone a new cloned project, the deadline dates go all wonky. Some are reset up to 10 years in the past, showing 1500 days overdue and the like.

I would really appreciate some guidance as to how I'm screwing up.

    Can you show me the (basic) project template that you are using? I am not seeing this behaviour.

    Also, what database (type (mysql, postgres) and version) are you using? The date calculations are done within the database.

        Yep, either I'm screwing up or something didn't install right or I'm
        setting it up wrong, or there is a bug. I cant figure it out. My host is
        using php 7.3.6

        How do I show you the basic project template I'm using. I'm just setting
        it up through the software

        Ive tried all kinds of ways to set the dates and its just not working
        right. If I set a deadline date for the project, the due dates literally
        wind up years ahead or in the past. I don't know how its doing the
        calculation.

        Thank you so much for your help

        if youd like to login to the site and see what i mean please take a look.
        the admin username and pass are admin and pass.

        Ive also included a backup of my current sql database

        thank you so much for everything. this is an awesome piece of software!

    Well, I spent a while looking for a bug, but there actually wasn't one.

    When you clone a project, you give a new deadline date, which is then set in the new project. To keep everything in order, the tasks are also shifted in date proportionally to the old and new dates.
    With your clone project the deadline is set to the year 2029. When you clone the project to current day, all the tasks are shifted by the difference of (2029 - 2020) years - or about 10 years.

    Shifting the clone projects to a more current date will fix that.
