ClickUp users face limitations when organizing their workflows that involve items that are not strictly tasks. Currently, ClickUp's Time View is primarily designed to handle tasks, causing inconvenience to users who also want to manage events, general information, or noted absences like vacations directly within the platform. These users find it cumbersome to use tasks to represent non-task items, which often leads to a cluttered and inefficient system where true tasks, informational notes, and events are indistinguishably mixed up. This extension aims to clearly differentiate between these elements, providing an organized and visually distinct representation in ClickUp's Time View.
🗒️ Feature Requests
- Automation Integration:
Automatically trigger predefined events or create tasks from templates when adding new non-task items. For example, scheduling a meeting could automatically create preparation tasks. - Flexible Event Hierarchies:
Enable hierarchy settings similar to tasks for other item types like Events, where subtasks, notes, or linked tasks can be added to events. - Non-Task Items in Time View:
Allow users to add items to the Time View that are classified as non-task entities, such as Events, Information, and General Notes. These should be distinguishable from tasks and not necessarily need a status or a due date. - Customizable Visuals for Non-Tasks:
Include options for users to visually customize how different non-task items appear in the Time View, such as color coding or tags, enhancing the accessibility and usability of the calendar. - Time Blocking and Schedule Management:
Provide advanced features for planning using non-task items, like time blocking and visibility toggles for past events, echoing functionalities seen in tools like Google Calendar.
