You could set the view to ignore orphaned tasks and then delete those manually during your review. I wouldn't delete the project, though, as that would also delete any research I had put into it. You could add a status of "Deleted" in projects and tasks, then set a trigger to change the status of all related tasks to "deleted" when that's chosen in projects. Then, set your views to ignore tasks and projects with a "Deleted" status. During your scheduled reviews, you then select to view all "Deleted" tasks and projects and manually delete them. Either way seem like they would effectively solve your orphaned tasks issues until Notion adds the feature to delete all associated tasks.

This is awesome. Notion has such a learning curve but I'm really excited that it can yield so many benefits once I get a bit more familiar.

Can I tryout your automation templates if I'm using another template from another productivity creator?

why no link to the article, of the notion update, in the description?

Hi Thanks! is it possible to automate that when I click on 'Done' the next person who is in the task next, can see it or is tagged automatically?

If I create a new task within a project, is it possible to have certain properties within that task (like priority, area, goal, etc) auto populate to reflect those properties that are in the parent project? Similarly, is it possible to have this task auto relate itself to the parent project?

Thanks for this! Is it possible to create an automation where when a box is checked on a page, it will duplicate that page? I have a sales booking database, which needs to be organized by 'week start date.' I would like to have a 'renew booking' checkbox which when selected, will do the following:

A) Duplicates the booking page (which contains all the company information, etc. from that booking).
B) Adjusts the 'week start date' on the new booking to the next week
C) Unchecks the 'renew booking' box on the new booking.

B) & C) seem pretty straightforward, it's really A) that I cannot figure out using the new Notion automations. Right now I am using copy and paste to duplicate, but it slows things down if I have 100+ sales bookings each week.

I cannot seem to access the free template I click on the button and I get a success message but I do not receive an email nor am I redirected to the page that allows me to download the template

The automations are great for smaller things, setting statuses and the like, but theres still no real solution for templating larger projects in Notion.

[lowkeyproducktvt]

these features should be free, i don't understand why such a core feature is paid ?

[SiHargreaves]

Man, I don't get this crap at all. Not from your explaination but it's just confusing lol

[Global_Epicurean]

Don't want to pay for automations.
