Is this a feature for the backend or frontend?

Frontend

What would you like?

I’d like the ability to assign individual due dates to checklist items inside a card. Currently, Planka only supports due dates at the card level.

Why is this needed?

Often, a card represents a larger task or project broken into multiple sub-tasks (checklist items). These sub-tasks usually have different deadlines. Without individual due dates, users are forced to:

create multiple cards (which clutters boards and breaks context), or

manage deadlines outside Planka (which reduces visibility and collaboration).

Hey! Thanks for the feature request. We thought that adding more per-task attributes might be too much and could make it hard to display everything clearly... but we'll definitely consider it.

We need this Feature also. Would it help if someone (perhaps our company) paid for this?
