Feature Requests

Problem: Custom fields can become messy when you have different types of work (tasks) within the same lists. For example, having a bug, feature, and an epic task all in the same list would cause them all to have the same custom fields, even though I would want specific ones for each type. Other issues arise when fields that should only belong to the top-level task spread down to all its subtasks. Ask: Custom fields should have the option to be added to a custom task type itself. Whenever I create a new task of that type, it will come along with all its custom fields. Those fields will not spread to any task that is not of that type.

When a Task is linked, or a Custom Relationship is added, the Task name should be visible.

Problem: We manage different types of work within ClickUp, and how sections are organized in ClickUp Tasks do not always work across each type. In some tasks, for example I want subtasks and fields front and center, while in others, I need to bring relationships front and center. Ask: Give the ability to have a different task layout for each task type. This would allow each type to have a layout that is better organized for that type of work.

It would be great if in the Task View we could have the ability to customize (globally) the columns that we see next to each task. By default it is Assignees, Priority, and Due Date, with an option to manually add in columns, but that doesn't translate globally. I think a separate global setting for this would be a great addition as a lot of us are looking at start date and due date, not just due date.

At the moment, task types are Workspace-wide. However, different teams have different needs as far as task types, which is why Space-level or private options would be optimal. For example, an HR team wouldn't rely on the same task types as an IT team. Each department may have sensitive information in their workflows (represented by a task type) that they don't want other teams to have visibility on.

Problem: Often within a single list, we have different types of tasks: some represent projects, designs, and smaller action items. Each one should go through their own set of statuses, but this is currently not possible. We are forced to either use dropdown custom fields as a workaround or create large status sets to try and encompass everything, leading to confusion among people. Ask: Give the ability for statuses to be set by type. This will allow each task type to have its own status workflow.

I'd like to create multiple task details views for a given task/list/project/task type and make it default for all users, but still allow them to see the hidden fields. View examples: Essential info: name, description, assignee, start and due, tags, 1 or 2 custom fields, Status. Detailed: the current one Estimating: name, assignee, start, due, tracked time, estimate, and a few custom fields. Worst case scenario, have the ability to hide fields and custom fields by default to all users, but allow them to view by clicking on "show all fields"

In Clickup 3.0 we can set "Default Task Type" in a list (Which is awesome). But it doesn't let you set default "subtask" types. e.g. - I want to make a "Person" task type for the default in my List, but I want each Sub-Task of those "People" to be an actual regular Task. (This will help me utilize CRM style functions, while letting those subtasks show up in my everything view as actionable tasks, without showing the CRM lead name, since those aren't actionable tasks...)
