I have created a number of files and directories within my project folder, however when I try to open the folder as a project it won't let me. After opening the project_name.cbp it only opens the main.cpp file and none of the other files or directories.
Is there a way of opening /importing the whole project as I saved it without recursively adding the files and directories, aka faffing about?
Thanks.

Codeblocks does not manage projects with folders, so you have to add all files manually to a project. Then you save the project and all should be fine on loading...
To add files you can use:
Project->Add files
or to add many files
Project->Add files recursively
To save a project you have to hit:
File->Save project
There are some problems with project saving:

if this does not answer your question you have to ask more precise what you want to achieve and the steps you try to do...

Great that did it!
I recursively added the project folder to the project and clicked 'Save Project'. Now when I open it all the files are there.
Thanks.
