Load default tasks with buttons

Notion database templates are awesome for automatically adding a pre-configured list of blocks whenever the template is selected. However, sometimes you don't want to see them all at once. Often, a project is composed of sub-projects, each of which needs to be tackled separately.

One solution would be to create a "Sub-projects" database and link it to your "Projects" database. Another solution would be to use Notion buttons to set pre-configured tasks for each sub-project.
