Summary
In the Saved tasks table (https://console.apify.com/actors/tasks), the only reliable way to open a task is the small <a href> link on the task name. The rest of the row — including the whitespace immediately around that link — is wrapped in a click target that navigates to the Actor (the Actor dashboard) instead of the task.
So a slightly-off click ("miss-click") next to the task-name link does not just do nothing: it silently takes you somewhere completely different, and you then have to navigate all the way back to the tasks list.
Steps to reproduce
- Go to
https://console.apify.com/actors/tasks.
- In the task-name cell of any row, click a few pixels beside the task-name link (still inside the same cell / row area).
- You land on the Actor page, not the task.
Expected
Clicking the task-name cell and its surrounding area should open that task. The row's click target should match what the user is pointing at — the task the row represents.
Actual
The row wrapper's click target wins and navigates to the Actor, so a near-miss on a small link produces an unrelated navigation.
Suggested fix
- Make the task-name cell (and ideally the whole row) a single click target that resolves to the task detail page.
- Give the link a larger hit area (padding / full-cell anchor) instead of a text-sized one.
- If navigating to the Actor should stay available from this table, put it behind an explicit, distinct control (the Actor column, or the row's
⋮ menu) rather than the row background.
