-# Skeleton -- a Kanboard plugin template
+# BulkMoveTasks -- move a whole column of tasks at once
 
-A minimal, working Kanboard plugin that you copy and rename as the starting point for a
-real plugin. By itself it does only one trivial thing: it renders the word "Skeleton" at
-the top of every page. It changes no data and runs no database migration.
+A Kanboard plugin that adds a "Move all tasks to another column" action to the board
+column header menu. It moves every task of that column (within the swimlane you clicked)
+to a destination column you pick, in one step, instead of dragging cards one by one.
 
-## What it demonstrates
+## What it does
 
-- A complete `Plugin.php` registration class with all the metadata Kanboard shows in
-  Settings -> Plugins (name, description, author, version, homepage, compatible version).
-- A template hook (`template:layout:top`) that injects a template into the page.
-- Asset hooks (`template:layout:css` and `template:layout:js`) that load a stylesheet and
-  a script. They are empty for now but prove the injection path works -- handy when a real
-  plugin needs custom CSS or JS.
-- The standard plugin directory layout, with stub folders (`Controller/`, `Model/`,
-  `Schema/`, `Locale/`, `Test/`) ready to grow into.
+In the board, open a column's title dropdown. When the column has tasks you will see
+**Move all tasks to another column**. It opens a small dialog listing the other columns of
+the project; choose one and confirm. All open tasks of the source column and swimlane are
+appended, in their existing order, to the end of the destination column.
+
+Each task is moved with Kanboard's normal move logic, so positions are recalculated and
+the usual move events fire (activity stream, automatic actions, etc.) just as if you had
+dragged the cards yourself.
+
+## Scope of a move
+
+- Acts on one swimlane at a time -- the swimlane of the column header you used. On a board
+  with several swimlanes, repeat per swimlane.
+- Moves the open (active) tasks shown on the board. Closed tasks are not affected.
+- Only users who can modify tasks in the project see the action, and the server re-checks
+  that permission before moving anything.

 ## Installation
 
-No build step and no dependencies.
-
-1. Copy this folder into your Kanboard installation as `plugins/Skeleton/`.
-2. Reload any page. The word "Skeleton" appears at the top.
-3. Confirm it under Settings -> Plugins.
-
-To uninstall, delete `plugins/Skeleton/`. Nothing else is left behind.

-## How to fork this into a new plugin
-
-1. Copy the folder and rename it, e.g. `plugins/MyPlugin/`. The folder name must match the
-   namespace and start with a capital letter.
-2. In `Plugin.php`, change the namespace from `Kanboard\Plugin\Skeleton` to
-   `Kanboard\Plugin\MyPlugin`.
-3. Update the metadata methods (`getPluginName`, `getPluginDescription`, `getPluginAuthor`,
-   `getPluginVersion`, `getPluginHomepage`, `getCompatibleVersion`).
-4. Update the hook target paths: the lowercase prefix in `'skeleton:layout/header'` and the
-   `plugins/Skeleton/Asset/...` asset paths must match the new plugin name.
-5. Replace `Template/layout/header.php` with your real template, or attach to a different
-   hook. See the Kanboard plugin hooks documentation for the full list of hook points.
+Copy this folder into your Kanboard installation as `plugins/BulkMoveTasks/`. The
+directory name must be exactly `BulkMoveTasks` (Kanboard derives the plugin namespace from
+the folder name). No build step and no database migration.
