Copy & Paste Lessons From one year to the next
I would like to go back to last year's plans and copy and paste the exact lesson(materials, standards, objectives etc.) to this years plans. I don't want to copy the whole year at one time though. Just a specific day.
We’ve added a new “Copy” button to allow you to copy lessons (includes drag/drop) from another teacher, another year, or even one class to another. Hope this helps, any questions just let us know at support@planbook.com. Thanks!

I tried the copy button, but it will not copy more than a year out.

It would be really nice if there was a way to "map" the lesson sections at the beginning of the year (or when copying). If I change or rearrange my lesson sections for the new year, then when I copy lessons from the previous year the fields get copied to the wrong sections. It copies from "section 1" of the previous year to "section" 1 of the new year--even if the lesson sections are not in the same place now.
So I often have to copy/paste text from section to section once I've used the build-in lesson copy feature.
I'm not sure if this make sense. If I have "lesson details" in lesson section 2 last year, but I moved it to section 3 this year, then the wrong text gets copied to the wrong sections.
Maybe the first time that you copy from Year X to Year Y, it could ask you to map/correlate which sections should match up when copying the lesson.
I guess this would also have to be addressed if copying from another teacher's Planbook. They may not name their sections the same as I do and then everything gets placed in the wrong fields/sections.

I just want to copy the classes from my old year to my new year. I'd like to add it with the template if there was one created. I think that I'm copying it but it doesn't seem to appear. What am I doing wrong. There are no tutorials on this.

It would be nice to have a search field in the "from" column. I might know the name of the book/lesson I want to copy, but have to manually scroll around and search for it if I don't know what date it was originally on.
