Carry backlog folder name into subtask / task
Jamie Morin
The backlog folders are very helpful for tracking subtasks to keep things moving. The folders have specific names, but the subtasks are generic. It would be nice if the subtask referenced back to the folder it came from. My initial entry didn't include the project name from the backlog folder, so when it's in my daily list, I have to go back to edit which project it came from.

Backlog folders for scheduled tasks: keep, show and filter by folder after scheduling
Brian Davis
Backlog folders are the closest thing Sunsama has to projects, but they stop working once a task is scheduled. When I pull a task from a folder onto a day, I lose sight of which folder (project) it belongs to.
Request: let folders work for scheduled tasks too.
- Keep: a task stays in its folder after it's scheduled, and can be filed into a folder from Home or Today (not only from the backlog).
- Show: display the folder on the task card and in task details, the way channels are shown.
- Filter: filter Home, Today and the calendar by folder, and open a folder to see all its tasks, scheduled and unscheduled.

+1. Once a task leaves the backlog I can't tell which folder or project it came from. I've asked for folders to stay visible and filterable on scheduled tasks: https://roadmap.sunsama.com/improvements/p/backlog-folders-for-scheduled-tasks-keep-show-and-filter-by-folder-after-schedul
