Archive or hide Tasks and Discussions
Right now if a project has several todos, it can look messy. It would be nice to archive to-dos (still be searchable, just hidden somehow) so that the to-do page is cleaner. It's hard to see which todos still need completing once there are 20-30 todos.
Hi All,
We allow to archive Tasks and Discussion groups now. We will be redesigning Discussions to make better soon too.
We already have Saved Searches http://blog.freedcamp.com/2016/06/17/how-to-use-new-saved-searches/ and will be adding GMail like filters including once like completed_older_than:: or created_older_than:: which you can use in search box inside our filters.
So you can easily have a filter which filters out tasks which were completed more than 2 months ago and see them back by turning off that saved search back.
Cheers,
Igor

I am looking to know how to archive at the discussion level. How do I archive a single discussion? Any one have any advice?

I'm the owner of the project. When i click the cog on the project view and right click it, it just says leave project. This particular project doesn't let me complete and archive it for some reason. I finished/completed all the tasks but it still won't give me the option.

@Mirna, You can ask project group administrators or account owner to archive it. Right now we do not have tags for projects where you can simply add a tag and filter out by it in Freedcamp.

How about projects that don't let you archive them?

Actually all you have to do is create a group called Archived discussions. And move the discussion to that group!

i think we can use Task Group feature and name it as archive, the Task Group archive can be collapsed so it keep the screen clear. just move the task between task group via kanban view
just my oppinion

This isn't really completed, as I understand it. It would be good to archive single to-dos without having to archive the entire group of to-dos.

I agree - It would be great to be able to archive/hide individual discussions when they are "completed". I have about 30 discussions going on one project at the moment and it is messy that I can't "complete" them like a task and "hide" them like individual ToDos. At the moment I have to group them, but they are not "hidden" and take up too much of my screen.
Please say that this is still being worked on, and an approximate release date? Thanks :)
Please admin!Igor mentioned this was being worked on, back in Dec 2014. Any update please Igor?

Archiving is done now in TODOs and next upgrade will be added in Discussions. Yes - archived records are searchable.

Angel, according to your comment, the whole discussion group has to be archived? We have 3-4 discussion groups, and once an idea has been discussed, we'd like to archive that discussion (still searchable, just hidden).

It would be nice if it were possible to close or mark a discussion complete once it is no longer needed. Similar to what you can do with to-dos that have been completed.
