@Paul Rieckhoff

When duplicating a board with a background color, the background color does not transfer to the new board. 

I am 99% sure this is still expected — when the feature was released, background colors were not copied over:

@Eca Perhaps the product team can confirm the functionality and if it’s expected, the HC team can update this article’s FAQs:

After testing with the different steps, the problem is not resolved. 

 

I am using Chrome. There are no error messages or unusual behaviors. I have attached screenshots of the original and the duplicated version.
