Allow to duplicate checklists for recurring items

Right now the checklist only shows up on the first occurrence of an item

App:
Duplicates 2
Allow sub-tasks to carry over when setting a parent task as recurring

Not sure if this is a bug, or if it's by design, but when I add sub-tasks to an event and then set that event to recurring, the sub-tasks don't appear in the future events. This is annoying when you want to repeat a task with the same steps every time. Can this be added?

Is there a way to make subtasks repeat?

I have set up a recurring task that has subtasks. The task is repeating but the subtasks are not.

Hi everyone, I am very happy to announce that last week's release has introduced something you will be interested in:

Subtasks repeat across a repetition! You can also choose to have different subtasks per exception in the repetition.

Youhou!

Hi, Krystle!


Thank you for reaching out.


Our apologies as repeating the subtask is not yet available with the current version.

Thank you for voting on this.


We appreciate the feedback and will pass this along to the Dev team . It may not be in high priority at the moment but we will have this noted for future improvement.

SO DISAPPOINTED when I created a pretty detailed checklist on a recurring task thinking that it would be duplicated later and it wasn't. Frankly, this was a feature I thought was in the software and was a big contributing factor to me considering Weekplan over Todoist. I hope there are plans it implement it soon.

Same for me.  I have just realised that this isn't the case and hope it is implemented soon.  To be honest, this seems to be something that has been overlooked as it is fairly common

Ana - I would be interested to know what other things are higher priority. This is a key feature in terms of having a checklist that repeats if the main task is repeating.  Maybe fixing the Goals section which is just terrible to be honest.

Friends, although we recognize this feature can be important for many of you, I have to draw a line at which features we implement now and which ones have to wait still. 


There are 1000s of small features we could be implementing that are important to pockets of users but I believe other things can better help grow the community.


In the meantime, I suggest you use the notes to store your checklist as it works per event:


[ ] subtask 1

[ ] subtask 2

[ ] subtask 3

The formatting of the notes section is terrible.  The support section (this particular window) is way better than the notes section.

It would be useful to see the planned developments/features etc so active users can vote.  At the moment, given the formatting of the notes, the issue in this thread, the goals section and the app which is beyond belief terrible, I am reconsidering my use of this tool as well.

Dang 11 months later and this is still not implemented. I guess it's back to Todoist for me :(
