Task List Workflow Rule
I'm having an issue when creating a workflow rule to notify customers by email of the project progress. I need the criteria to be TASK LIST STATUS not just task status. I don't want our customers getting too many email notifications throughout the project,
Milestones - must they always include a tasklist? Is there a way just to have task(s) within milestones?
We like using the milestone feature for project organisation and visualising the Gantt chart, however we have no need for "task lists" in some milestones because some milestones might only include 1-2 task. As far as I can see, I cannot assign Tasks to Milestones - I can only assign a Task List to a Milestone. Is this correct or is there something I am missing? Having to setup a task list makes the system look bloated and creates unnecessary clicks and confusion when there are only a few tasks required

Can email notifications be opt in rather than opt out?
Could you please make it so that email notifications are opt in for users and not opt out? We may have to stop using Zoho. Some of my colleagues like and use it; others don't want to experience the details of project management—they just want to be updated verbally at meetings. Sure, they can configure their own settings, but why do I have to make them do that? Many will just say: make this stop; I don't care if it means that you have to stop using this tool. I guess I could give the an alias email

Field Dependency in Task Fields
Please consider introducing field dependencies such as you are doing it on Zoho Desk. Yesterday I was customizing a Task layout for the first time where I did require to relate 2 fields and I did assume that Projects would already have this feature because it was already being presented in another Product from Zoho but to my surprise I've found out that there isn't a dependency feature in Projects. Below is the "Field Dependency" option menu from Zoho Desk. This feature is not a full fledged solution

Administrator having the ability to change user profile deta
Dear Zoho: I have been using BasecampHQ and they allow the Admin to do anything to the Users. Change: name, photo, address, etc. This is a useful feature, as most users are lazy and most admin have to do the work for them, or risk having incomplete user profiles. I highly recommed changing this to give the Admin more rights. Thanks, Andy Andy Jacobs
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).
