Please speed this up, it is very important to be able to apply list templates to an existing list.

The concept of a template is to "not" start from scratch when doing repetitive things... not being able to add a template to an existing list is very counter-efficient.

Use Case: When we have word of a new contract, I need to create a list to mark that as a placeholder for a portfolio view. I don't want to populate that list from a template because we don't know what the product mix is until the contract is signed. So I have to make another list FROM a template when it is signed and then move all of those templated tasks into the placeholder list. And then delete the template-generated list because I don't want to have to redo the associations from that placeholder list! Aghhhhh!

Also, we can create a template out of 1 task; but can't make a template out of a couple of selected tasks (should be able to select random tasks and then make that selection into a Task template that could be inserted into an existing list). This makes me do extra work. And yes, you can duplicate tasks and then move them, but I swear, there is something buggy with duplicating large count of tasks and moving them.

Please move this to In Progress!

Any update on the status of this ???

This post is originally from 2020?! that's really not listening to the customer...

+1 totally baffled how templates are supposed to work otherwise

This should be priority #1 for CLICKUP developers!!

What is the purpose of having templates if they cannot be applied to existing List, views, etc.???

Also, ensure applying a template will work with the built-in automation suite

This is a must have for standardization. When you have a lot of lists where you email into them, you can't just go through and create new ones without redoing all of the emails also. Now anytime we have a change to a list we have to go through manually and update it setting by setting for every list that should be updated to the new standard. It's a giant waste of time and allows WAY too many opportunities for mistakes in the settings. That leads to errors. Leads to pissed off people.

Not sure why this isn't a relatively simple request. If settings are changed, just ask which one you want to keep. Keep them in the status group that they're in and just make it the lowest version of that status. For other settings either add it to the template or drop them all together. Things like this are WAY more important than having ancillary features (screen recoring, whiteboards, etc.).

We need it to be THE BEST task management system. Full featured. This is a big hole for anyone that wants consistency across their organization.

Please fix.

please please please!

Agree this would be helpful
