Offer option to stop posting Planner activities in Group conversations
Group conversations get quite cluttered with activities in Planner eg. Task xyz assigned to John Smith. Would like the option to turn this off
117 votesThanks for your feedback. We now set posting Task Activity (Task Assign and Complete) to the Group Conversation to Off By Default. Plan/Group owners can turn this setting on/off in the “Edit Plan” dialog.

Checklist Improvement
The checklists need to be more edit friendly. Also sometimes my checklists that I fill out with 10-12 pieces of information either completely disappear or half way disappear. Sometimes my descriptions also disappear.
27 votesWe believe the issues outlined in this thread have been resolved. If you experience any other issues with the Checklist, please start a new thread for visibility.
Thanks for your feedback!

People with long names cannot be removed from the plan
If a person has a really long name, the ellipses to remove them are blocked from being selected and the person cannot be removed from the plan.
