Re: Move existing jobs into folders
That should work by moving in filesystem. (the move feature is part of the Folders Plus plugin that is part of Jenkins Enterprise offer) Vincent 2013/11/22 Eric Wood eric.w...@rocketmail.com The only way I could figure it out was to actually move the job to the folder in the underlying Jenkins file system and then reload configuration information. Which seemed to work, but I have not played with it enough to know if there is some embedded information that needs to be adjusted. Is this an acceptable method or is there a way in the UI?

Re: Move existing jobs into folders
You can manually move jobs from the 'jobs' directory into 'jobs/foldername/jobs'. It will break any existing job relationships, but plugins should be able to deal with disappearing jobs. But you should still be able to use the full-featured, closed-source Folders 3.x if you tell Cloudbees your email address. The following features exist in Folders version 3 that have been removed from Folders 4 (and moved into commercial Folders Plus 2): * Move jobs into/out of folders (without reloading data, but will still break job relationships thanks to JENKINS-18028 -- it will appear to delete the existing job and to create a new job to plugins monitoring such things) * Configurable health reports (for the weather icon) * Custom icons * Folder-wide environment variables inherited to all descendent items/job * Restrict job types possible in the folder On 22.11.2013, at 18:30, Eric Wood eric.w...@rocketmail.com wrote: I just starting using the folders plugin and it looks great.

Re: Move existing jobs into folders
Just thought I'd add that 3.15 is a dead end. It's no problem for me to use it on temporary test instances (and Folders 4 on the Enterprise-licensed instances), but if, for some reason, Folders 3.x becomes incompatible with future Jenkins in some way, you'll be in trouble -- upgrading to the then-current version will remove all of these shiny features, which can be painful especially for the folder-wide environment variables!

Re: Move existing jobs into folders
Found how to do it under the advance tab on Manage Plugin, Initially it failed, but when I restarted jenkins it tells me I have 3.15 installed and 4.0 is available.
