Zach - ClickUp I vote for the summarized view of recurring tasks. But also it would be very beneficial if we see all recuring instances below each task. This could be in form of drop arrow menu, which be placed beside the Task, and by clicking it lists all recurring instances.
having this will give us 360 visibility to recurring tasks.

Zach - ClickUp just went into the new recurring tasks manager, and I found a few that I forgot to turn off recurring so I clicked through and turned them off..... but they still appear in the list from the new manager. Is this supposed to be like this? I was expecting it to disappear from the list, or maybe put a strikethrough.... or something.... anything other than still appearing in the list along with the 'next run' date.
Zach - ClickUp
Stephanie Henry: Hmmm, they shouldn't show anymore. What happens when you revisit the experience after a refresh? Do they disappear?

Zach - ClickUp I even closed out of clickup completely and reopened and they still appear.
What's also strange:
1.) One of them that I cancelled the recurring today, also now is blank on the breadcrumbs/hierarchy that would normally appear in the upper left hand corner. See here: https://app.screencast.com/BGichHT8HLAfz - And now that I have this task open the X/close button does not work. It stays there on the screen and I have to completely close out CU again and reopen.
2.) When I first loaded this new manager page I was surprised to see some recurrings with future dates even though I cancelled the recurring a couple days ago.

Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce that the Recurring Task Overview is now available in your Workspace! 🎉
We've released the first version of this feature, providing a comprehensive overview experience. While it doesn't have management capabilities yet, we're working on adding them in the future.
One question I need help on!
Regarding the new feature we've shipped, I have a question for you. Currently, recurring tasks are displayed as separate line items, with each recurrence indicated by an incrementing run count (188, 189, 190, etc.). However, all of these line items are related to a single task.
Would you prefer to see each recurrence as a separate line item, or have a streamlined experience with only one unique task displayed per line?
Lastly
I understand this will only be a partial solve for many of you that were following this Feature Request. Although I'm closing this one, if there are still strong needs you have, let's use this to chat about them: https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/add-management-features-into-the-recurring-task-overview
Thank you for your support! 🙏

Zach - ClickUp I like the unique item that is summarized versus each recurrence as a separate line item. I took a look and it was a lot of line items, so just seeing one task that has a reoccurring setting attached with the extra data you put is more useful/effective. I REALLY look forward to updating the settings for the reoccurring from within the manager view. Thanks for the update!
Zach - ClickUp
Jarod McPherson: we'll make the change for the summarized version like you mentioned.

Zach - ClickUp Hi, I also like the summarized version of a recurrence, it is easier to read than it would be if splitted in separate items.
However, there is one thing missing in the recurring task manager : show the name of the folder / space in which the task shows up.
Recurring tasks are often set up for weekly meetings, so our tasks all have the same name and I am unable to identify to which project it refers without clicking on it to open the detail.
Zach - ClickUp
Marina Schnoerringer you got it!

Hey folks, the first version of this will be shipping relatively soon.
To be clear, it will
not
have management capabilities at first. This first version will purely be an overview experience. Based on the survey results, this first version will meet the needs for 40% of you. But for the 55% of you that said this would somewhat meet your needs, don't worry - this isn't the end!
Try it out, provide feedback, and then we can work on building out the management version next.
Thanks everyone 🙏

Allocating user stories or tasks to a clickup list is challenging. Recurring tasks inherit all the activity and time tracking of the original task; irrespective if you set recurrence to create a new task each time.

I really like this idea. I'm a fairly new user, and I already find myself trying to remember if I already set up a recurring task or not, having to go search. And moving forward, I'd really like one place from which to be able to review these tasks to adjust dates or change associated notes, etc.

Hey everyone, I have a quick 30-second survey for you that will help us understand what features you would expect from this. It would be really great if you could take a moment to fill it out. Here's the link: Click here to take the survey.
Thank you so much for your time and input!

Zach - ClickUp I'd say having a central manager, such as the custom fields manager, would be very helpful!
