Project Chat and Task Comments

Use project chat, mentions, reactions, and task comments to discuss shared work in TodoTicked.

TodoTicked provides conversations inside projects and comments inside tasks. It does not provide direct messages or general-purpose chat channels.

Project chat

Open a shared project and use its chat panel or chat dock to discuss work with project collaborators.

In project chat, you can:

  • Send text messages to the project conversation
  • Mention a collaborator
  • React to a message with one of the available reactions
  • Load earlier messages
  • Delete a message you sent

Project chat keeps discussion with the project instead of creating a separate team-wide conversation.

Task comments

Use comments when a question, decision, or update belongs to one task.

  1. Open the task.
  2. Open its comments area.
  3. Write the comment and mention a collaborator when needed.
  4. Send the comment.

You can edit or delete comments you created. Keeping decisions in task comments makes the history easier for collaborators to find later.

Notifications

Project members can configure in-app and email notifications for task additions, edits, completions, deletions, and comments from the project's Notifications tab.

Use mentions when a specific collaborator needs to see a message. Avoid relying on project chat as an emergency or guaranteed-delivery channel.

Tip: Put decisions in the relevant task comment even if the discussion started in project chat. The task will retain the context where the work is tracked.
