User Story

As a user, I want to be able to add new activities directly from the Activities component in the sidebar, so I can quickly create and track my tasks without navigating away from my current view.

Acceptance Criteria

• A prominent "Add Activity" button is visible within the Activities sidebar component
• Clicking the "Add Activity" button opens a textarea for creating a new activity (see the video)
• Users can submit the form to create a new activity
• The newly created activity appears immediately in the Activities list without requiring a page refresh
• The form includes proper validation to ensure all required fields are filled before submission
• A success message is displayed after successfully adding an activity
• The UI is consistent with the overall design of the dotCMS interface

Proposed Objective

• Core Features

Proposed Priority
