Hello.
First of all I have to thank you for a great product!
And secondly my question is how can I make custom fields in tasks use autocomplete when I type something. It would be a very usefull feature, expending OpenProject possibilities.
As you enter text in parent issue field it lists all issues that match your search. I need this feature for a custom field. What should I do to make this possible?
Thank you!

Hi Seymon,
there is no such feature ATM. If you want to take a shot at it, you might have a look at how the edit view of timelines is implemented. We have paginated autocompletion for, e.g., types.
It uses select2 and the version 2 of our API. You could have a look at extending the API to include custom fields, and go from there to include autocompleted select2 inputs where costom fields are used.
If you’re up for it, we could provide some more support and pointers into how to continue.
Cheers,
Martin.
