# Task Actions Explained

The task creation pop-up includes several task actions that provide additional options for better task organization. These actions make task management easier and more effective:

- **Join as Assignee**: Assign the task to yourself.
- **Move**: Allows you to move the task to any board and stage.
- **Watching**: The **Watching** option lets users stay updated on changes and activities for a specific task.
- **Change Cover**: Let you change the task card's cover color. Also, you can **Upload an Image**as a Task Cover.
- **Custom Field**: If you need a custom field for your task to add extra information based on your use case, you can easily do that in FluentBoards. To know more about **Custom Fields** read this [article](https://fluentboards.com/docs/custom-fields-for-task/).
- **Make Template**: This enables you to create a template from the task.
- **Recurring Task:** To create a recurring task for your board, you can set it up here. For more details on recurring tasks, check out this [documentation](https://fluentboards.com/docs/recurring-task/).
