How to associate a task with a milestone
Hi there, Is it possible to associate a Task with a Milestone without creating a TaskList please? When creating the task there's no such option (or at least I am not able to find it).

We are a consulting firm that bills clients a flat upfront annual fee plus an hourly rate and offer a discount for pre-paying a block of hours.

Project Templates & Blueprint Templates
I am trying to have a blueprint activated, when a new project (based on a template) is created. So the blueprint restricts the whole new project created.
