# Inline Task Settings
These settings control the behavior of TaskNotes' inline task management features, including the Task Link Overlay, Instant Task Conversion, and the natural language processor.
## Task Link Overlay
You can enable or disable the **Task Link Overlay** feature, which replaces wikilinks to task notes with interactive widgets.
## Instant Task Conversion
You can enable or disable the **Instant Task Conversion** feature, which allows you to convert any line type (checkboxes, bullet points, numbered lists, blockquotes, headers, or plain text) to TaskNotes with a single click. You can also choose whether to keep the original checkbox marker in the source note and whether to apply your default task settings to converted tasks.
The folder where inline-created and converted tasks are created is configured in **Settings → General → Folder for inline-created tasks**. See [General Settings](general.md#task-storage) for details on folder configuration options, including `{{currentNotePath}}` and `../` sibling-folder paths.
Instant conversion uses the same filename settings as other new tasks. Configure these in **Settings → Task Properties → Title → Filename format**, including custom templates such as `{{date}} {{title}}`.
## Natural Language Processing
You can enable or disable the **Natural Language Processor (NLP)**, which allows you to create tasks using conversational language. You can also set the default date type for ambiguous date references.
