Tasks - more Progress Status Types
It will be great if you add task statuses different than 'in progress' and 'closed' i.e. we are software company that have different workflow:
'not started', 'in progress', 'done', 'for testing', 'competed', 'archived'

Custom Statuses for tasks – beta testing is open now.
To enable it for your account and your projects and users you need to be on our Business or Enterprise plans or their equivalents. Please contact us as shown in the attached picture to help us to process your requests faster.
Please check documentation – https://freedcamp.com/Freedcamp_LxR/Freedcamp_Devel_yOf/wiki/wiki_public/view/Espab after getting access especially if you will be applying custom statuses to your existing projects.

nice one! hopefully some other improvements won't take 7 years

Here is the public documentation page - https://freedcamp.com/Freedcamp_LxR/Freedcamp_Devel_yOf/wiki/wiki_public/view/Espab
It is nearly ready - it is amazing how many places are affected and how many tiny and big decisions have to be made ....
Cheers,

Can you add more status for the tasks sort of like Monday.com has.
currently there are only 3 no progress, in progress, completed.
it would be nice to have more sort of like monday.com
- No progress
- Re-assigned
- Paused
- Cancelled
- In Progress
- Stuck
- Completedsome task for me are really disorganized due to the status, some stuff are marked as in progress when in reality the task has been pause due to waiting for a vendor or more paperwork, or i have a couple of task that were assigned but i needed to cancel, not delete so there is record that only for that week that task was cancelled and i cant do it.

Concept looks similar to github and will allow for personalized swimlanes so I think that would be fine. What is the ETA of this being released?

Hi Freedcamp,
On August 15th 2020 you wrote:
"Sorry, I have no updates. At the moment all the team is busy switching our interfaces to React modern-micro-interactive UI."Did you find in the mean time some time to make it possible to add custom statusses for tasks?

Josef Pajskr commented
Yes, Freedcamp needs custom columns / statuses for Kanban view asap. Otherwise it seems almost perfectly suitable for my needs

How hard is it to do this? Looks like over 6 months and this is a HUGE deal for most of us. Without this feature we will be leaving Freedcamp very shortly.

Hi Igor, any progress on implementing custom status columns in Freedcamp?
I definitely would use this, as our current workflow relies upon the following statuses:
"no status / inbox, high priority, next actions, in progress, blocked, done, nope"

Just started with freedcamp and like it much - but: I urgently miss the ability to define more task statusses, like: Idea, Planning, ....
Thanks

All I need for this to be perfect for me and a collaborator is something between "in progress" and "completed", like "in review".

My company was trying this out, and within 10-15 minutes of my dabbling with it, I was poking around trying to figure out how to add more states. It was an immediate issue.
At minimum, an "On Hold" state would be desirable.
The plan seems to treat this as little more than a percentage-complete indicator. Each state may just be replaced by "0%, 10%, 20%". It doesn't allow for the possibility or concept of tangential scenarios.

Being able to set a colour to a task is a feature we are also expecting for.
As a small development team, we are using Google Agenda to set tasks and a colour according the one who is supposed to execute the task. It give us the opportunity to manage available ressources inside the team in a simple way bust by checking the planning.
Eg: if for a week, a task is in green, then it means I'm already working on this task so I'm not available for a new task to schedule. If I have to do a new task, I will search for another available (not green) slot in the calendar.
We would like to remove Google Agenda and use only Freedcamp calendar for this feature, as we are trying to use only Freedcamp for projects / development management.

Hey Igor - any updates on this? I love the platform, and this is the one big thing that it's missing.
