Subfolders
building now

It would be very convenient to have the ability to have subfolders. I use folders for classifying projects. For example, Projects would be a Folder name. 2019 Projects would be a Subfolder name.

Hey everyone! I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself as I will be joining the Hierarchy team as the Product Manager and we will be working on getting this shipped.
We know—Subfolders have been at the top of your wish list for what feels like forever. Trust us, we hear you (loud and clear) and are equally as excited to get it out to you.
Our engineers are working through the final challenges to ensure subfolders function as expected, without impacting the rest of ClickUp or its performance.
In the meantime, your feedback keeps us honest and fired up, and we’re committed to getting this right. Thanks for sticking with us and keeping the pressure on—we’re building this for you, and we won’t stop until it’s done!
It's nice to meet you all and I look forward to sharing more updates.

As a paying customer of multiple workspaces since 2020, I'm curious about
❓How is it possible that a project management software company can't provide project timelines or regular progress updates?
(on projects that are allegedly "building now")
> 2019 September - Subfolders (all-time HIGHEST VALUE/VOTED)
> 2018 June - SORT tasks in list view by status in order
Most PM software users would call these ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS from the beginning, rather than nice-to-have features.
I'm living on the fumes of hope since the newly updated "building now" status starts with a "B" and since list view only sorts status in alphabetical order, it's now on top of the SORT in list view and may now get done before we are all another 6-7 years older.
❗️It's been 3 months (another quarter of a year) since the last update pinned by Vincent Varghese

Hi Vincent Varghese
Thanks for the latest updates. Do you have an eta for the release of this feature request?

Yes, I requested this some time ago. On a Project, you can have lots of documents and "Old documents" the ability to create Folders in the Attachments section of a Task > to store documents would be great (Like the functionality Teams has for Folders) See attachments

Any update on when this will be added to the platform?? In my mind this is a core function to a project management system and should absolutely be prioritized above AI Integration, which is largely cosmetic features.

Depending on the complexity and specific subdivisions of an organization, it would be very important for the tool to allow the creation of sub-folders to adapt to other types of hierarchy. It would make the tool much more adaptable.

It won't be more than 1-2 weeks before we switch to Monday, as this is too slow. It also shows that the clickup team does not prioritize the user's requests but only what they think is “smart”.

For a company specializing in project management software, the lack of a release date for subfolders is astonishing. I've been following this thread for five years with no insight into when this feature will be released. The ClickUp team repeatedly states that subfolders are coming, but they never arrive. What is ClickUp's actual committed release date?

Hi Vincent Varghese
I understand this is technically a complex topic. But it is by far the most requested feature and one that keeps a lot of people using clickup to its best. It was on the H1 roadmap, now it is on the H2 roadmap. We signed up thinking this would be priority (which it should be if you look at what your customers want). Yet there is loads of stuff on the H2 roadmap that is not deemed nearly as relevant by the community. Maybe you need to attribute more team power to this topic and ship it.
Can you give us an estimate? Is it even happening in H2 this year?
I love clickup otherwise. Thank you for the support and the hard work,
Peter
