If we can support custom task types too...please?

This would be a huge, huge improvement, it's rough that nearly every other majorly upvoted feature request is "Planned" or "Future" except for this one.

It's shameful that this bug hasn't been fixed yet! It's impossible not to hire the competition.

I have the same problem and I think it's very serious. Especially for how expensive the plans are

Once I nest a task the progress auto update stops working. This seems like a bug

bump. we need this.

We faced a recurring problem in ClickUp related to the automatic updating of progress between tasks, subtasks, and checklists within our project management framework.

Currently, our operation was built using a structure of:

* Main tasks (mother tasks)

* Submissive

* Internal checklists

The expected behavior is that, when completing a subtask or checklist item, the progress of the higher structure is automatically updated, reflecting the actual progress in the execution of the project. However, that is not happening.

Problem detail:

* Progress is updated only on the subtask where the checklist was inserted.

* However, this update is not automatically reflected in the linked parent task.

* The subtask is correctly marked as complete.

* However, the progress of the main task is not automatically recalculated or updated.

That is, there is a break in the synchronization of progress between the hierarchical levels of the task structure.

This behavior is directly impacting:

* The operational monitoring of the projects;

* The progress dashboards;

* Managerial view of deliveries;

*The automatic indicators for the execution of the lists.

We have previously opened a request with ClickUp support, but we have not yet presented a return or definitive solution.

In fact, we have already granted authorization to access our Workspace/List so that the ClickUp team can analyze the configuration internally and identify if it is:

* Platform bug;

* Setup problem;

* Limitation of native automation;

* Or automatic progress synchronization between linked tasks fails.

We need support to identify the root cause and make the necessary adjustments so that:

* The completion of correctly updated checklists as subtasks;

* And when you complete/advance the subtasks automatically reflect the progress of the main tasks (parent tasks).

Currently, this automatic update is not working at any of the levels of the structure.

"Calculating the progress of activities manually is very exhausting."

This really should have been inherently how it works..
