Copy and paste lists?
Long time Wunderlist user trying just starting a new project with todo. Looks like I can not copy and past lists or specific items. I use template lists every day. Any help would be appreciated. Wind...

It's been a few years, and it looks like this isn't directly addressed yet, but I thought I'd add a workaround for the record and for anyone else that searches for this issue and winds up here like I did. Here is my workaround:
- Using the desktop Windows app (not sure about other platforms), if you go into a list and click the "..." button at top right, you'll see an option to "Email list". Clicking this will initiate a new email in your default email client with the list copied into it. From there you can copy the list and do with it what you please.
- Better yet, if you do the above and your list is "too long" (don't know how long that is exactly), it will actually let you just copy the list to the clipboard directly! (Now was that so hard, Microsoft...)
