Default List When Creating a New Task in Everything View
Trever Berryman
Can be cumbersome to select the list every time. Some folders are used more than others in Everything View

5 years and counting to implement what seems like a basic option.
We tell our uses to never use the "new" button as it's more hassle than it worth.

This is such a pain in the butt not having this feature, so often I am missing tasks in 'Everything View' only to find out it was created in the 'Personal List' that I never use!

Honestly if I need to set a quick task now, the lack of this feature is a blocker. I'll just set a reminder or task in Google apps as they are designed for quick on the go capture. Even on Notion you can create items quicker.

Apparently this is slated to be fixed on mobile (in "PLANNED" status as of Dec 2024): https://feedback.clickup.com/new-mobile-app/p/select-a-default-location-for-created-tasks-on-mobile
I don't understand why it isn't already slated to be fixed in general.
BEST WORKAROUND I've found thus far: create an automation from within the Personal List to move any newly-created tasks to another list of your choice.

Fairly new user here. This is one of the first major issues I have noticed.

This is such a basic feature. Unbelievable that this is not solved.

Wait, it's over 4 years later and this still isn't addressed? what is ClickUp team doing? no default list?!

This is desperately needed. And particularly galling given the default 'Personal list' doesn't even show up in Everything view!

I agree with the rest - This feature would be appreciated!

This would be very useful - I work in the Everything view almost daily, and having to change the list each time I enter a new task is incredibly frustrating.:
Edit: this request has been open over 4 years (1460 days!). I guess that means it's not happening?
