🎉 Introducing Project Automation

While we are still in the initial stages, we have started introducing automation by unveiling two new features: Issue Archive and Auto-close Issues. These will enhance transparency regarding existing issues and facilitate the transition of your issues in 'Done' and 'Cancelled' status to your archive box.

• Auto-Archival for Completed & Cancelled Issues: Define specific durations to automatically archive issues in the Completed and Cancelled state groups. This feature ensures your issue board stays organized and clutter-free, without the need for manual intervention.
• Auto-Closure of Inactive Issues: You can now set a customized duration for automatic closure of inactive issues.
