Show empty fields in List view, when grouping by Custom Field
under review
Guy Mannerings
Currently, when you group by a Custom Field in List view, if there are no results for a particular field option, the Custom Field option does not show.
This is not useful if you like to move things between custom fields by dragging tasks.
For example, if you have a List grouping by a Dropdown Custom Field for each day of the week, but you have no items with the option "Thursday", Thursday simply does not show on the List.
It would be useful to be able to toggle empty Custom Field groups on, so that Thursday could be shown.
You can do this with empty Statuses and dates, but not Custom Fields.
You can also show empty columns on Board view when grouping by a Custom Field, but not List view.

Please, though Michael Van Doorn 🙏 😊 .
We can show empty rows for Statuses with no Tasks, so obviously you guys see the value in seeing empty groupings.
We just need to be able to do the same for empty Custom Field groupings, empty Due Date groupings, etc!
Also needed for Grouping by Due Date for areas like "Tasks Assigned to Me", because otherwise it's easy to get confused by not seeing empty days.
This is, in general, really important when you need to know that certain Custom Fields/other groupings do not have Tasks under them.
Hopefully an easy win!
Also, maybe the title should be changed to "Show empty fields in List view, when grouping by other options that aren't Status, eg Custom Fields and Due Dates".

Any update on this feature? It would be really helpful to show empty Custom Field when that field is used as the grouping mechanism.

Yes please, having to leave "placeholder" tasks to keep the sections from showing. A bit of a eye sore.

Yes please! Just got annoyed by this today when trying to have my daily focus work in a small Window on the screen side.
List view for my small window case is way better than Board view.
Since ClickUp can't aggregate different statuses I tried to use my own Custom Field for my Task Statuses, to aggregate, however not behaving like "show empty statuses" option like with custom fields you group by on Board views is just tooo many clicks :/
