Custom solution configuration not showing up in Visual Studio 2010

Question

I added a solution configuration called 'Staging'. It does show up on the drop down in VS, but not in the Configuration Manager in 'Package/Publish Web' screen. On this screen, the ones I see in the dropdown are:

• Active (Release)
• Debug
• Release
• All Configurations

I don't see Staging in here for me to package in the Staging mode

Answer 1

This happens when you first add the custom solution configuration, and later add a new project. The new project will not have the solution configuration available to choose from.

I'm also looking for a solution.
