Task List Template (Custom Days)
Could you NOT auto fill my days.
When I select Custom, I mean custom.. I know the platform is trying to be helpful, but it isn't.. It messes everything up when I put in for instance "10 days" and you auto fill it with 2 weeks, makes it IMPOSSIBLE to day any kind of templates with specific dates unless you do them manually.
Complete pain. lol
Make a task list template with like 5 items, choose custom for each, then put in like 2 days, 7 days, 10 days, if you look at a calendar from the start date, it will never match up. Frustrating.
Task lists now support being created taking into account working days (skipping saturdays or sundays) or not.
You can configure this per project, see Project Settings.

Still doesn't solve any of the problems, but way to go.
Honestly, suggest to re-work that entire logic.. its just not correct at all. I'm going to assume any of the scenarios and examples i posted were never even attempted to be replicated or you would see how bad it is to actual work with.
Anyhow.. D for effort.

Checking back into this as we have moved to Rule.fm but really like your product but the "task templates" functionality which is trivial for us, just doesn't work properly at all. I think the overall logic behind it is just kind of weird. The first task in the template should have a dropdown that simply says "Today" so when you are actually in the projecting and select a template and a start date the date you pick is when the first task is due.. not the "1day" after.. just seems weird.
I tried to make a basic 3 task template all having a fake task due each monday for 3 weeks. So i did custom.. put "8" cause you cannot put 7 or its on the weekend and the last task was 16.. when publishing it.. it said the last task was due "yesterday"... huh?
Help me out here guys! You said over the next few days.. that was Feb. 8th, not even a reply.
Thanks
Michael
