By default, updates to all the tasks in a project will be sent in a Primary Project Message on the channel. Depending on how much time has passed since the last message was sent, the message will be updated with new information, or a new one will be sent, replacing the previous one.
Check off this option and “Save” to stop sending new messages automatically. Instead, the pinned message will always be updated, new one will not be sent.
A message will be sent to the channel to let others know why they might not see new updates.
