Remove Custom Fields

English Forum Tips and Tricks

I recently switched from a trial membership to the free version of Asana and have custom fields that I set up when I was on the trial version.

I would like to delete the custom fields but it appears that option is not available. I’d rather not recreate the project without those fields. Is there a workaround here?

@Jeff_Angell,

You can try asking support (I’m not positive if they’ll do that, but worth a try): To create a support ticket, go to www.asana.com/support (make sure you are logged in to Asana) > click the chat icon at the bottom right > type “speak to an agent” > click “Yes” > click “Something Else” > click “Create a support ticket.”

If you were willing, you could do this yourself by creating a new project and “re-home” all tasks (completed and incomplete) into the new project: Multi-select 50 tasks at a time and 1) add to the new project, and 2) remove from the old project.

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks very much for the suggestion -

I am up for the work certainly - How do i re-home a Task? Thoughts on exporting and then importing into a new project?

See Multi-homing and Add to project here in the Forum or Asana Help.

Export/Import will lose all comment threads and some other info as well; that’s why I recommended the above.
