Changing the default task type (plain sticky note) to custom task type

Every time I create a new task, it starts with the default task.. Which has a lot of useless (IMO) information like author, task ID, creation date, etc. I wish there was an ability to change the default task type to a custom task type so that it could display the information (that I find useful) in the item details.

Currently, I have to make sure to click the task type before I create the task, which is easily forgotten when making 100+ tasks a day. Further, my coworkers who are not tech savvy will 90% of the time leave the task type as the default, even after creation of the task.

If I could change the account wide default task type to be the custom item type we specified, it would streamline our processes and make the interface a lot more efficient. Changing the default task type for individual spaces and projects would be ideal, but I am sure it will be more difficult to implement. Thank you in advance!

Hi Mike Montalvo, welcome to the Community! Thank you for creating this post, it's an interesting suggestion. I've passed it on to our Product Team 👍

May I ask what is the process you follow to create your tasks?

Hi there! Any updates on this request??
It is something that is quite restrictive.

We also want to set our Custom Task as the default Task. But as Mike has pointed out, people on the team will inevitably miss it.
Otherwise, we should be able to change the "Default Task" to any structure we want.

Thanks
