When i set a task to closed, it disappears

I have community edition 5. When i set a task to complete, it disappears from the task list under the project task. How can I change this behaviour?

Thanks!

Hi,

When you set a task to complete it is moved from the activity subpanel to the history subpanel. Have a look there.

This foxed me for a while until I saw what was happening.... It probably in the documentation.... but as usual... I haven't looked at that for a while.

In the logical process I think that it is probably the right way to handle it. You just need to educate the users that things that have happened and complete are in the history.

Hi bigpappatrader

By default the closed tasks are not displayed into History subpanel under ProjectTask .
So you can create a extended layoutdefs to include it.

The file to be created: custom/Extension/modules/ProjectTask/Ext/Layoutdefs/layoutdefs.php

Add into it this code:

 <?php
$layout_defs['ProjectTask']['subpanel_setup']['history']['collection_list']['tasks'] = array (
    'module' => 'Tasks',
    'subpanel_name' => 'ForHistory',
    'get_subpanel_data' => 'tasks',
);
?>  

After saving this file, you may need to create the folders, you need to go to Admin -> Repair -> Rebuild Extension

Hi Well caught Andopes...

I missed the part about it being in Project Tasks (duh it was pretty obvious) and assumed it was a general activity being closed. I was working on a custom module at the time and just checked the behaviour on that.

Sorry for any confusion bigpappatrader
