Confusing workflow

No due dates. Task disappears from lists when i schedule them.

How I want it to function:

I want to create tasks in lists. Each task has a due date when they must be completed. I will work on the task off and on up until the due date. What i want to be able to do is to schedule multiple work sessions for each task until it is completed. Hence, it should not disappear from my list just because i schedule it. Also, hard due dates is a must. I donโ€™t get why so many developers miss this; it is equally important to know when i will WORK on a task, as it is to know when it must be DONE.

    Honestly, after just a couple minutes, I understood the workflow. Seems kinda intuitive.

    • You first organize stuff into lists, if necessary.

    • Then you plan stuff, assigning due dates.

    • Then you focus on tasks during particular days.

    The only thing I miss here right now is the ability to see all my planned tasks in a list or even a calendar.
    (I think I just found this in the โ€œOrganizingโ€ tab, which is, in fact, counterintuitive, since I already organized stuff)

    Hi! @Andreas Chatzopoulos I am founder of OFFLIGHT and so nice to see you here.

    First of all, I 100% agree with you. That is reason why we built our product separating due date <> planned date.

    You can actually set the due date here.
    1. click a task, click flag icon and select a date

    1. If you pick a date it will show up in task like this

      • From task list

      • From Task pop over


    The feature you have been using is actually our planning feature. So when you scheduled it for specific date, It disappeared.
