Cannot remove custom field from Asana template w/ form

[Randi_Shapiro]

Description:
When I disable the Asana field “Work Progress” in my copy of the Work Requests template, the field is still visible in tasks.

Steps to reproduce:
Create new project using Work Requests template. Modify input form. Disable “Work Progress” field. Open sample task: field still enabled even though the slider indicates it’s off. Have tried reloading, deleting the tasks that existed prior to turning off the field, and no luck. At this point I will have to just create the project from scratch to get what I need, which defeats the purpose of the template and duplicates work I’ve already done.

Browser version: Chrome Version 78.0.3904.97

Hi @Randi_Shapiro and welcome to the Forum!

You should be able to remove this custom field from your tasks following these steps: How to Create and Use Custom Fields in Asana | Product Guide • Asana Product Guide

Hope this helps, but let me know if you’ve any follow-up questions!

I see. The slider tab is just for field visibility in the project view but does not remove the field from tasks. The removal instructions worked, thanks.

Correct @Randi_Shapiro! Glad we worked it out

Hi @Marie!
I have a free version of Asana.
Before I tried to use the premium version and I added some custom fileds. Now I use a free version, and I don’t need a my custom fileds anymore, but I can’t delete them. What can I do?
Thank you in advance,
Gabor
