This update makes bringing your work into Nifty, as well as managing it, even easier, starting with our Weekly Productivity Reports! 🚀

Weekly Productivity Report

Workspace Owners can look forward to advanced weekly reporting by receiving a Weekly Digest email (sent out on Mondays at 11am local time) that gives a rundown of:

• Completed, Overdue, and At Risk Tasks
• Amount of Time Tracked (if time tracking enabled)
• Most Active Working Day (based on tracked time)
• Messages Posted in Project Discussions
• Direct Messages Sent (if DM's are enabled)
• Docs Created
• New Members Added

To enable or disable this report, visit your Notification Settings in your Profile.

Task-based Milestone Extensions

If you select a new due date for a task that exceeds its Milestone's end date, you will now have the option to extend that Milestone's date range. This means your Milestone's end dates can now react to your task due dates!

This can even be done through Bulk Actions if tasks are tied to different Milestones.

Improved Teammate Tasks in User Profile

Tasks in user profiles are now sorted automatically by dates instead of by projects to help you gauge teammate workloads just as easily as yours.

Other Fixes and Improvements

• Zapier apps are now available to everyone on the team inside the Nifty app center.
• Added option to sort by custom fields in task's list view.
• Labels and Statuses from Asana, Clickup, and Trello will now be imported as Tags.
• Fixed a bug where Custom Field Links were exceeding their column's width.
• Fixed a bug that showed a project's Home module when the module was disabled via project configuration.
• Miscellaneous bug fixes and performance improvements.

We're excited to introduce more improvements to Nifty as well as some highly requested tweaks!

New! Subtask Due Dates

Reintroduced to Nifty by popular demand, Subtasks can now have their own due dates! These due dates serve to help you flexibly manage subtasks and do not interact with the task's deadline nor the Milestone that your task may be a part of.

Hidden Task List

You can now enhance your privacy controls by hiding entire Task Lists to mask the list and the tasks within them from the role(s) of your choosing.

Other Improvements

• Recurring Milestones will now recur completed tasks as well. This update requires resetting current milestone recur config to include completed tasks.

Fixes

Get ready for better automations with our improved Recurring Milestones and Tasks! 🚀

Recurring Milestones

Tasks tied to a milestone will now recur with the milestone to automate the recreation of sprints, content schedules, and other repetitive Milestones with all the attached tasks!

Recurring Milestone Task-Lists

Milestones that are task-list based will now duplicate both the milestone and the entire task-list with all the tasks for improved tracking of your source and recurring lists and tasks. Recurring lists and milestones will now have the new dates added in the bracket for easy tracking.

Dynamic Due Dates with Recurring Tasks

Recurring Tasks will now pick up the deadline of when the next version of that task is set to recur. For example, a task set to recur on Monday-Wednesday-Friday, will have the due date of the next recur on the source task.

Other Improvements
