 * I have set the “**Allow co-workers to edit tasks**” to disable, i assumed this
   would disable the ability of an assigned user to edit the task “content” this
   includes the status, I also assumed that this would not permit the assigned user
   from creating new tasks in the project. However it seems both of these are happening.
   
   is this the intended behavior? i need to set tasks from a “manager” that are 
   compelted by a end user and the task is only marked as complete or in progress
   by the manager who is checking hte content of an attached file. I like this plugin
   as the attaching files in comments is very useful.

 * Hello,
 * Unfortunately, it is not possible for now to not permit assigned user (co-workers)
   to change status if allow co-workers to edit task setting is disable. Also, it
   is not possible for co-workers to not permit to create task if setting is disable.
 * Thank you for your suggestion. We have added your suggestion into our suggestion
   list. It will be available in future update.
