Issue Summary

The C2C Data Transfer process modifies site-level global settings on the destination site that are outside the scope of the transferred projects. In this case, transferring two projects caused a global UI setting ("Simple create as default") to be enabled, which altered the Create Screen layout across every project on the destination — not just the two being transferred.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Have a Production site with "Simple create as default" set to OFF (or absent)

1. Perform a C2C Data Transfer of projects from a source site where the setting is ON

1. Observe that "Simple create as default" is now enabled on the destination site

1. All projects on the destination site now show the compact Create Screen layout

Expected Results

• Transferring selective projects should only affect those selected projects — no changes to other projects or site-level settings

• Create Screen layout on the destination site should remain unchanged for all existing projects

Actual Results

• Data Transfer enabled "Simple create as default" (Settings → System → General Configuration → Options) — a site-wide global setting outside the scope of a 2-project transfer

• Create Screen layout changed for all projects on the site, including those with completely unrelated configurations

Workaround

Settings → System → General Configuration → Options → Toggle "Simple create as default" to OFF.
**

• Root cause: "Simple create as default" toggled ON by C2C Data Transfer

• Location: Settings → System → General Configuration → Options

• Fix: Toggled OFF → layout immediately restored

 

The Create Screen layout returns to its original state immediately.
