Description
I setup the desktop app and I can view all my tasks but I cannot create a new tasks from within a project or using the search command. It is possible to create a tasks from “Overview” but just like any other tasks it’s impossible to edit any of them. It only shows the name, project (tag), and description but no buttons or fields to edit.
Is this a bug or hasn’t this been implemented yet?
I’m using a selfhosted instance by the way.
Version: v1.0.0-rc2-288
OS: Arch Linux 6.17.8
Hey 
Which version did you download for the desktop app? This sounds like you’re using an older version with a newer API, which use different permission handling.
Hi, thanks for the reply
I listed the version in the post but here’s the specific package I use:
Vikunja Desktop-v1.0.0-rc2-288-g37473005.pacman
According to the timestamp, this was released today…
And I used /api/v1 as shown by the API documentation.
Which api version are you using?
Doesn’t it default to the latest? The about section shows v0.24.6
Oh and sidenote, I notice now that I can create a task using a command but there’s still no input field for creating a new task inside projects, and I’m still unable to delete/edit them.
That’s not the same as the unstable desktop package you’re using. You’ll need to either upgrade your api or downgrade your desktop client.
Okay thanks! However, using v0.24.6 results in Error javascript desktop version · Issue #404 · go-vikunja/vikunja · GitHub , and the official TrueNAS app for Vikunja uses v0.24.6 for the API. This means nobody using the official TrueNAS version can use the desktop app.
The documentation states:
For installations using docker, it is as simple as using the unstable or latest tag to switch between versions.
Would it be a good idea to have the user choose the tag/branch when configuring the TrueNAS app?
By the way, I’ll try to use a custom app using the unstable branch and report back
TrueNAS is not an official package by Vikunja, I think that would be a feature request for them 
They’re not planning to merge the unstable tag, so let’s wait for the next official release
