There have always been additional option when assigning contact groups to WATO folders or hosts. The effect of this options meanwhile has not always been absolute transparent depending if the user is in folder or in host properties. Especially the outcome of option "Always add host contact groups also to its services" has not been clear.

The titles do now explain better, what a particular option really does. This is just a clarification of the current, actual behaviour and no change of the behaviour itself. Therefore there is no need for manual interaction.
