[Feature Request] Automatic Design Updates

[DevPentest]

When updating design templates, any open/non-final projects with the design attached are not automatically updated. It would be a convenient feature to have it always synced up with the latest design upon saving edits to the design for the project.

Also, clearing design history from the project - can this be done easily?

This behaviour is intended.
When a user creates a project, SysReptor creates a copy of the selected design (this copy creates a "Design XY from 2024-10-30" - which I think you refer to as "design history"). You can delete these designs via the Django interface at https://yoursysreptor/admin/pentests/projecttype/ or by exporting and re-importing your project.

This behaviour makes sure that if you create a PDF report for your customer at one point in time, you can reproduce the exact same report, months or years later, even if the design has changed or became incompatible.

The main idea behind design snapshots was to prevent unexpected changes of old projects when the design changes and also prevents data loss when a field is deleted from the design or the field data type is changed.
