After deleting a project, when I begin adding a task to a new project, the names of deleted projects will appear. I have always gotten deletion confirmation emails for the projects.
Same as this, which was never fully addressed/answered. While it was suggested that these would disappear with time, months have gone by in some cases, with no change.
Steps to reproduce:
Create Project
Delete project
Attempt to add a task to a project with a similar name
Deleted project will appear in the suggestions
Chrome - Version 75.0.3770.142 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Upload screenshots below (note that suggesting a project multiple times comes from past deletions of projects with that name):
Thank you for taking time to report this! Iāve gone ahead and filed a task with our development team and will keep you updated as soon as I have an update from them.
I got an update from our Development Team and theyāve confirmed that when you add a task to a project, the deleted projects shouldnāt appear in the dropdown list . I have tested it on my end and I was not able to find any of the deleted projects Iāve recently deleted.
Could you please confirm that those suggested projects are not duplicated Projects or Template Projects?
Looking forward to your reply. Thank you for your help!
Thanks for the follow-up. Unfortunately, I am still seeing the issue.
Iāve confirmed that the projects showing up in the suggested-projects list are not in my list of projects. I donāt know where to search for other duplicated or template projects beyond the regular project list sidebar. I also do not have the ability/option to create a template project; only a āsave layout as defaultā option in the dropdown list.
Is there a place I should be searching for āduplicatedā or ātemplateā projects, where I would not normally see them?
Could you please try to add a new Task to one of these deleted projects that are suggested? What is the result?
Could you also search for these projects in the Search tool and send me a screenshot with the result?
Looking forward to your reply! Thank you for your cooperation!
Hi @Wes_F and thank you so much for the follow-up!
Iāve gone ahead and share your screenshots with the Development Team for them to investigate further. Iāll keep you posted as soon as I have an update! Thank you for your patience and cooperation!
I got an update from the Development Team that has confirmed that the reason you are experiencing this issue is because you are using Personal Projects. To give you some context, we are planning to depreciate them in the near future since they are not really flexible and they have some limitations (you can learn more about it in Why maintain Personal Projects? ).
Since we are not planning to address and fix these issues, I would highly suggest you to create a brand new Workspace (private to yourself) and to transfer all your Projects and Tasks using Kothar. This way you wonāt be experiencing this issue anymore.
Hope this helps! Thank you for your patience and cooperation and please, let me know if you have any follow-up questions! Have a great weekend!
