Fix the issue of deleted project tasks still appearing in "My Tasks."

Updated over 2 months ago

You've deleted your projects but for some reason they are still showing up in your search menu and their tasks are still appearing in the My Task tab. This is caused by the projects index not being updated and here are some steps you can try to get rid of these ghost/phantom projects.


Transfer Ownership

  1. Following these steps to Transfer Ownership of the workspace which contains these ghost projects to another user. This second user can your friend/teammates or a second account.

  2. Leave the workspace.

  3. Get the second user to invite you back into the workspace.

  4. Check if the projects and tasks have been updated correctly.


Missing Folders

If you have followed the above steps and now have missing folders after you rejoined the workspace, get the second user to follow these steps to gain them back.

  1. Open Workspace Settings

  2. Click on the Folder Section

  3. Click on the folders that are "missing" and click Join as Owner

  4. Navigate to that folder and then re-share the folder back to the original account
