repeat subtask on every n occurence

lennardh says:
Hey guys,

I am looking for a feature to have sub tasks of a repeating task only appear every N occurrences of the parent task. I assumed that would be a common feature but I cant find it.

I think it would be useful for thinks like

check my bike (every week)
--put oil on chain
--check brakes
--check pressure on tires (every 2nd occurence)

or

clean my room (every week)
--vacuum the room
--change sheets (every 2nd occurence)

etc. I think you get the point.
Am I missing something? Are there better ways to solve it than the way I would like to.

I want to group it in 1 task, bc. I will do all the things in succession and I dont want my overview of tasks to be cluttered with many small tasks.

Thanks in advance!

The link to add a post to the Ideas forum is not in the typical location. Go to the Ideas forum, scroll down a little bit, and you'll see it on the left column. I don't think it's a Pro-only thing.
