Hello,

one thing that bothers me in activecollab is the fact that the tasks do not have a field "description", only a "name". On the most cases, i need to describe what's expected to be done on that task, and i have no field to do that...
For my situation, this is extremely limiting.

Am i missing something, or this feature is really lacking?

This feature, and sub-tasking are the things that i miss the most. But the first one is the one that is really creating some difficulties right now :|.

Thank you, and congratulations once again! :)

If i want to change the code of my activeCollab installation to add the above feature (the extra field on the tasks), can you tell me where to change? (so i can spend less time digging into code, trying to understand it and find where i should add the funcionality).
Since there is no screen for "view task details", one possibility would be to add that screen, or simply add the field to the edit page of the task, and that would solve the problem for now...

Thank you :)

Nevermind, i've changed the code and solved it :) My solution is not perfect, but it solves the problem :)
