Google Doc storage space
If I share a Google doc in Zoho Projects, is it just a link to the Google doc on Google servers, or is it copied and stored in Zoho Projects (takes up Zoho storage space)?
Generating browsable URL from GUID projectid and bugid
I'm trying to generate a url to a bug detail page (in the Projects bug tracker) from the identifiers passed back from the Projects RESTful API. The IDs I get back from the API appear to be GUIDs however, the URLs I see in the browser all used integer IDs. Is there a URL format available that takes the GUID form IDs, instead of the integer IDs? I've tried the following format, but it didn't work https://projects.zoho.com/portal/{portal}#bugdetail/{projectid}/{bugid} Thanks!
Maximum Note Length
One of my associates has reported that some of the notes he has made have been lost. After poking around the only think I can figure out is that his notes were too long and not storing properly. Is there a maximum note length? If so, I suggest implementing some means to limit the text before submitting or validate length after submitting. helsten
Email Notification triggered by completed Predecessor
Is there a way to have a task emailed only after the preceding or dependent task is completed? We have projects with dozens of tasks so when the template is moved over on a new project every user gets multiple emails with the tasks. When most of these tasks are not going to be completed for 4-6 months this creates a nightmare for the users in terms of sifting through active, current tasks that require attention as they have to be aware of which tasks have the dependencies met in order to proceed.
Adding creation of New Bugs from Email
While in email I have the ability to take an email message and turn it into any of the following: A New Task A New Forum A Timesheet Entry A New Project See Screenshot below: How about giving us the ability to turn it into a new Bug or add it to an existing Bug. Most Bugs are emailed, so why not give us the ability to do that. That would really be awesome!! Thanks! Gail A.
Email Link Formatting
Hi, It would be very useful to forward emails to the address link provided to associate the email with tasks. Normally we save our emails as a pdf and save them on our server so that we now exactly what occurred verbatim according to the email. But when sending this to the link the formatting comes out very difficult to read. Is there any method or suggestions to work through this? THanks

Projects and Sheet Issues
We are having issues with a Zoho Sheet we have in the project. (Well all sheets). Even with a strong wireless signal, often my sheets "disconnect from the server" even when my computer remains connected to the internet. This does not happen when leveraging sheet straight through docs. However, when using Sheet in Projects I need to continuously be conscious of saving because I continue to lose information when the sheet simply fails to save or gets stuck "saving", or when attempting to save, the
Just Saying Hello
Hey everyone, I just got started with Zoho Project so I wanted to say hello to everyone and let you know that I'll probably be asking lots of questions. I'm a professor of Organizational Behavior and was looking for a project management tool for leading a team at a distance. I decided to plunge into Zoho to see if it fits my needs. I like what I see so far but I have a lot of learning ahead of me. gsw
Linking to a project doc from project wiki
I have a Project Pages (Wiki) that I use within my project. However, it seems to be a self contained entity where I cannot link or embed a Doc or spreadsheet that is part of the Project right within the Project Pages... Why not? I do not want to re-upload as an attachment within the wiki as well as in the project docs because then I have 2 independent copies. Also, when linking it allows from a URL, "Wiki" or Google Docs... why not Zoho Project Docs or Zoho Docs?
Organise forum into groups
This forum is difficult to navigate. I have no choice but to start at the top and trawl my way down through every topic. Why can't it be organised by function? When i use ZOHO projects, it is divided into the various functions dashboard,tasks, calendar, documents,timesheet,forum, pages, chat, users. Can we please organise this forum into these major functional groups so if i am looking for help specific to "pages", i can go direct to this section of the forum. cheers!
No login for new user

Problems with Client Users in 4.0
I don't know what is going on, but my company just made the switch to Zoho from a competitor. All of our testing went well, but now the most important part of the product for us does not work at all. When we add clients as client users, zoho does not send anythign out to them asking them to register. Their email addresses are listed under the client companies, but they have no way of coming to the site to register for our portal. Also, under bugs, we are not able to include our clients in email notifications.

Reordered subtasks revert back to original order when tasklist is saved as template... why?
When I save my tasklists as templates, the template version reverts back to the original task order (if subtasks have been reordered). Is there a way to prevent this? Why does this happen? I also have to enter subtasks in the opposite order I want them to appear (starting from the last and ending with the first). Is this an issue with settings, or is there anything I can do to change this? Any help would be great! Thank you!
Forgot Password does not send any email
Example problem: Client Users does not know password. Click Forgot Password on login page. Enter email, etc. Appears to be successful. No email is received. Nothing in SPAM folder. I have waited more than 3 days now for a response. I am also angry that every forum post a make seems to disappear or never gets posted!
The effect of an upgrade on contractors
At the moment, my project is only using the Free Online Zoho Project. If I, as the Administrator, raise some funds to purchase the upgrade I think that I need, do all the other contractors have to upgrade too or will they still be able to read and facilitate their task completions etc from the free online product. Thank you for all your help.

Recurring weekly tasks
Hi, In a project when we set the a test to be a recurring task we select a date start and a date end - for instance in three months time. Then we set the recurring to be one every week for 9 week. However, the system just puts the task on every day and not each week. This is a glitch with your system I think, can you test it for us and see if you have the same issue. OR - if we are not understanding the system properly can you send us a COMPREHENSIVE set of settings to set up a recurring task for

Client invitations expiration

I will gladly pay for Enterprise if......
....the items listed below are addressed. I really, really, really want to use Projects. But, there's some basic functionality and quirkiness that needs fixing. I'd be happy to expand on any of these. Also, please feel free to add to the list. Dependencies Can't apply dependency unless start date is after predecessor finish date Add WBS or task number to "classic view" and add predecessor/successor columns there. Or, list all tasks in the Dependency view regardless of dates Tasks make all values

Zoho Project: New vs Old
Dear Zoho Team, I've been using zoho projects since August 2012 and has been promoting it among the multiple teams I work with as well as partners and friends. It use to be very simple, quick and fast. After you have upgraded, I tried to be pacient and get used to the new version, however, now I'm thinking seriously of looking for a new tool provider. Here are few of the things that really annoy me in the new version: Task Lists: with slow connection, I need to refresh the page any times in order
Task List
I am sorry I am posting so many questions today but I am new to Zoho and trying to work out how to use it for a large project. I have fed into over 200 task lists and then I will be breaking down each task list into mini tasks to be done by around 29 people. As I produced all the task lists, I inadvertently made mistakes as I wasn't used to either Zoho or the writer of the document that I was copying. Now however, I would like to ensure that the task lists are kept in numbered order, is that possible?

Comments on a Task List
I have inadvertently made some comments on a number of task lists that i have now found out were a problem with what I was reading and I need to take the comments out. I have only been able to delete the whole task list and write it again without the comment. Is there an easier way to take comments out of a task list please in the feeds.

Classic View Problems in 4.0- Please Vote
Hello, As a Zoho Projects user for more than 2 years, a person who has provided ample feedback and often received constructive responses and a person who has driven over a hundred users to your systems, I'm writing one more time with only one week before you say you will stop 3.0 to concisely restate the case of the Classic View features. And to ask for a voting response from the readers of this group. The problem I am reporting is that the only way to interact with a task on the Classic View is

Task Reminders
Hello, Some requests/thoughts on the task reminder system... 1. The options for the Reminder feature on a task are very limited in use. We basically need to use another software for reminders since the options are only Daily, Day Before and On Due. We have around 40 active projects with dozens of tasks for each team member. Getting a daily reminder for tasks that might not be due for 2 months makes it unusable. If someone gets an email with 90% of the information being not relevant, they'll
Archiving a Forum Topic
Is there anyway to archive a forum topic? I have a topic for each of the benchmarks on my project. We just completed one and I do not want people to post to that forum any longer. I don't want to delete it because I want to keep the record, but I want it to disappear so that it can no longer be accessed by the employees on the project. Is there a way to do this?
Inline editing for tasks
In the new 4.0 version of projects it doesn't seem that you can schedule "in-line" when you are in the tasks view. You have to open the properties window for each and every task/sub-task to add a date. The older version allowed for editing dates, assignments, etc. in both views. This change is cumbersome and increases the time that it takes to create a schedule. Can this feature be added to the new 4.0 version as well?
