Hi,

the advanced search currently doesn't return tasks of inactive projects. Are you soon going to implement a search option that allows to display them ?

Best,
Eric

Hello,

If convenient, may I know the reason why you want to see tasks under an inactive project?

What is an Inactive project? It is a project that you do not want to start right now. Since you plan to focus the tasks under it, why don't you activate it?

Thanks for your feedback and support.

Hi,

my purpose is to display on a *SINGLE* page absolutely all the tasks that I have fed to the system. That allows me to have a broad overview, and also to save that page in order to have a backup of my tasks.

This is why I also want the tasks of inactive projects (projects scheduled for the future, or project which date = someday) to be displayed in the search result.

As some people wouldnt want to display those tasks, the easiest is to add an option to display them : a check box, for example, that adds the tasks of the inactive projects in the search result.

What do you think about that ? And if you like the idea, when do you think that will be implemented ?

Best
Eric

@michelle1987

thanks. what is the ETA for that feature ? i'm not sure i can continue to use your service for a long time without it, or without a decent alternative to export my data (even in plain text)

best,

We are considering how to improve the search feature, but it won't be implemented so soon.

We are now busy making an all-new design for the app. The development of it will take a litte longer than we expected. :( But we believe that it won't disappoint you. Just stay tuned!

You may keep an eye on us by following us on Blog, Facebook and Twitter so that you will get informed immediately when there is a new feature or a new version.
