WordPress To-Do List Plugin
Download To-Do List Plugin – version 2.1.4 posted 08-21-2010
IMPORTANT: If you have existings items and enable categories, you will need to assign those items to a category.
This plugin provides users with a to-do list feature.
You can configure the plugin to have private to-do lists for each user or for all users to share a to-do list. The shared to-do list has a variety of settings available. You can assign tasks to a specific user (includes a setting to email a new task to its’ assigned user) and have only those tasks assigned viewable to a user. You can also assign different permission levels using capabilities. There are also settings to show deadline and progress fields. Category support is now included.
A new menu item is added to manage your list and it is also listed on a dashboard widget.
A sidebar widget is available as well as shortcode to display the to-do list items on your site.
The plugin is a extensively modified version of an abandoned plugin. I originally just fixed it to work in WordPress 2.7 for my own use, but have since made many additional improvements.
The plugin was originally a basic to-do list from Abstract Dimensions (site no longer available) with a patch to display the list in the dashboard by WordPress by Example (site also no longer available).

I just installed your plugin – right after your posting on 1-27 it looks like. using wp 2.9.1 It loaded and shows on the dashboard and under tools but it is not adding items.
The priority drop down shows up.
the website is a test one that I am developing at http://www.oldschool.rradvice.com
Thanks for letting me know. The table wasn’t being created when the plugin was activated, due to the old code still calling the file incorrectly.
I’ve fixed it so now when the plugin is activated, the table should install and items can now be added.
I’ve replaced the download with the fixed version.
Thanks, that did it.
id author status priority todotext
Edit Delete 1 1 0 1 Add your first To-Do List item
Edit Delete 2 1 1 1 test item – done
If you are taking feature suggestions,
the idea is for sites with a couple of authors / admins to have a super simple group task manager.
the ability to select making the plugin available site wide to users based on role (ie authors and above)
In other words one todo list for all authors, maybe tagging each item with user id/name that created it.
or maybe just the ability to make the individual’s todo list viewable by others in the dashboard.
I like that suggestion, thanks.
I started work on that feature tonight and should have it completed in a day or two.
Hey, there, just downloaded and installed your plugin. Seems nice, best todo-list I’ve found for wordpress so far…
However, one kind of strange thing happened after installing it… The dashboard thingy seems to mock a bit with the other stuff in the dashboard. This only seems to happen when I have two or more columns in the dashboard… The stuff in the second colums get their headers chopped in half, and some links get underscores and stuff. This is how it looks:
http://henrybowers.com/dashboardbugg.png
but anyways, cheers!
/oscar, sweden
That’s odd. I’ll have to look into that.
I’ve fixed the problem.
Awesome! That was really fast…
The plug-in works well, but I don’t want it to be available to the entire readership of the site – just the Contributors and Authors.
Therefore, when using the ‘assign’ option, the list of users should only be those above Subscriber level. It is taking so long to scroll through our thousands of subscribers to get to the authors that it makes the ‘assign’ feature – this plug-in’s real selling point – unusable.
If you could fix that issue and add in some deadline info too (complete by date), it would be perfect.
You’ve made some good points. Those features should be easy enough for me to add in sometime soon.
Great news – and thanks for the support. Always great to see good plug-ins being looked after!
Thanks Cindy…
A Feature Suggestion – an option to write To-Do lists with some formatting…so a option of having a TinyMCE Editor for writing to-do lists would be great.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will see about working it into a future version.
Hi,
This plugin looks really handy. I tried to install version 1.3 on wp 2.9.1, using the wp web-based plugin management, but I got this error message:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/allth7/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/cleverness-to-do-list/cleverness-to-do-list.php on line 392
Any idea what the problem is? Do I need to manually install it?
Thanks!
Fixed! It was an incompatiblity with the PHP version. It should install correctly now in version 1.3.1.
Love it! but still not getting my items to mark complete. I can check it off, the screen refresh’s and says the item has been marked complete; however, my completed Items is still empty and the item is stil in the main to-do. Upgraded 1.3.1 with WP 2.9.1.
Thanks
I am having the same issue as Christ on the most recent WordPress version (2.9.2) and your most recent version of plugin. Not getting my items to mark complete. I can check it off, the screen refresh’s and says the item has been marked complete; however, my completed Items is still empty and the item is stil in the main to-do.
Thanks for letting me know. I’m still trying to track down the issue and have been unable to replicate the problem.
Hi,
Judging from the comments it looks like the To Do List only functions within the Dashboard (Admin) section. Is there a timeline as to when the plugin will be available to be viewed by the entire site/blog?
Thanks.
I do plan to add a sidebar widget and shortcode so that the list can be placed into pages/posts. I would like to have this completed by the end of the month, if not sooner.
Great plugin! A feature suggestion, it would be neat if users could somehow indicate the progress on the individual to-do item. Either a text field where they can enter a number (to indicate the %) or perhaps a dropdown with the numbers 5,10,15,20,25,30 etc up to 100%.
Thank you!
Good suggestion. Easy to implement too.
I am loving the plugin EXCEPT it’s missing one thing. Email notification. My users don’t log in daily and with a website like mine the timing matters on when a new post goes up. Can you implement some sort of email notification that goes out to notify them that they do indeed have a task waiting for them to be done.
I will definately look into that as an upcoming feature.
Thanks for this great plugin. I found it really easy and usefull.
I have traslate it to Spanish. Please let me know if you want to include the translation on the plugin.
Best regards.
Yes, I would love to include it! You can email it to me at cindy@cleverness.org.
Hi there. Love the plugin. Haven’t actually used it yet, as I’m hoping to include it on a client site I’m building right now, but, have read all about it and very excited to offer the functions you’ve included to them. I am building right now using the latest development version and the new default theme, so, should be able to give you some good feedback, first of which is … just upgraded to your latest version and activated for the first time. Everything looks good, except that when I click the submit to add a new item, nothing happens, and when I click the delete on the default to do item, it appears that I am being redirected to the same page ( item still there, stylesheet gone ). I’m figuring that this must have something to do with the form actions, but, haven’t looked into your code myself. Just wanted to give you the quick heads up. Feel free to contact me at my email address if you want to troubleshoot. The install I’m working on right now will be the default n about 60 days, so ….
Thanks for letting me know. I’m going to start looking into making the plugin work with the 3.0 version sometime next month.
Thanks for the response Cindy. Just wanted to let you know that I installed the latest version and experienced the same issue. I’m thinking it has less to do with the version and more to do with not being installed in the root. I have WP in it’s own directory on the server, and with the little knowledge that I have, I went hunting to try to debug what causes the weird issue, and perhaps it has to do with the form actions? It seems that they are all referencing a direct url query that is maybe not working because of this expectation? Just a thought~ Looking forward to it working with the site I’m currently building~
Thank you for that info. Yes, that must be the problem. I’ve attempted to fix it in 1.5.1, but I’m not sure if I’m using the right option to get the URL. Let me know if I got it right, if not I’ll keep looking for the right one.
I found out today that it is a problem with 3.0, although there was also a bug with having WP in its own directory in 2.9.2.
Hello dear Cleverness
I installed your plugin on both websites. 1 did well but other was returning an error after activating it in the plugin menu, it , i had no permissions <<< thats weird, both profiles i use have adminstatus.
Please could you help me out to fix this issue?
thanks in advance
Hans,
www,argusoog.org + http://www.argusoogradio.org
Are both sites using the same version of WordPress? If not, what version is the one that isn’t working? Are there any differences between the two websites, such as a different host for one?
Hello Cindy
thanx for the reply
Yes both sites are using wordpress version 2.9.2. Using same sourcedrive. Same profiles.
Hans
I will try and look into the issue sometime in the near future and see if I can track down the problem.
Great plugin.
Is there a way to still display completed items on the to do list.
I’m using the to do list on a page and would like to to display current items and also completed items. Ontop of this would it then be possible to display a “date completed” on the completed to do list which is then listed by date completed.
I have played around with the plugin and the PHP, and have used the Deadline Date to act as a Completed date (ideally want both), I also managed (don’t know if correctly, not very good with PHP) for it to output to do and completed on my page, I just cant seem to get them ordered by date.
I have also changed the view type to list (didnt like table) and (again not sure if done correctly) outputted more than just the item.
Please see link for example what I have done.
http://fuckinawesome.co.uk/log/
Kind Regards
Phil
I will add a completed field on the next update I do and also include the option to display the additonal info for list view. I can also add the option to show completed and will try to get them to sort by date.
It says I do not have permission to view that page on your site. Feel free to send a screenshot at cindy@cleverness.org if you want.
Cindy this is great news, you have developed a great plugin and try to include feature requests from it’s users. Fantastic stuff.
I have removed permission from that page so should be viewable now.

Hi It seems I have discovered an shortcoming of this plugin. I was wondering maybe if you could help. I am using the Capability Manager/Role Manager plugin and have created a separate class of users (different from Editors and Authors) called Publishers. However, none of the users from that usergroup show up in your plugin – as a result I am unable to assign any tasks to them.
Is there a way to fix this? Please let me know. Would really appreciate your help! Thanks in advance.
I didn’t consider that possibility. I will figure out a better way to select which users to show hopefully in the near future.
In the meantime, if you are comfortable editing the plugin file, you can try adding the following at line 571 in cleverness-to-do-list.php:
$publishers = cleverness_todo_get_users('publishers'); foreach($publishers as $publisher){ $user_info = get_userdata($publisher); echo '<option value="'.$publisher.'">'.$user_info->display_name.'</option>'; }I am not entirely sure this will work with the custom defined roles or not.
Hi Cindy,
Thanks for your prompt response! Really appreciated it.
I was able to successfully get it to work using your hack. Just one change, instead of ‘publishers’ in the cleverness_todo_get_users function I used publisher.
Thanks a lot, this is a great plugin, and I am really thankful to you for creating this.
Hi,
I would like to use this plugin with the P2 theme (who allow user to post from frontend like twitter for example, so is there a way to add tasks from blog frontend ?
Currently there is no way to add the tasks from the front end. I don’t think the way the original authors designed the plugin will allow it to be accessed like that.
Hi i hade some trouble with the install proc. regarding creation of database table, i had to make changes to the method “cleverness_todo_install” ( see below) this has to do with the “UNIQUE” keyword on the ‘id’ field.
// New query
CREATE TABLE wp_todolist (
id int(20) UNIQUE NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
author bigint(20) NOT NULL,
status tinyint(1) DEFAULT ’0′ NOT NULL,
priority tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
todotext text NOT NULL,
assign int(10),
progress int(3),
deadline varchar(30),
completed timestamp
);
//
Thank you, I have now fixed it in the latest version.
I am having trouble with the latest release, 1.5.
I click to add a new to do list the message pops up saying “New To-Do item has been added.” but nothing is actually added.
No table has been created in my database for this install (clean install of this plugin, no prior version) hence probably why nothing gets added.
Yep, I apparently broke it. It’s now fixed so the table should now be created.
Hi and thank you for this plugin.
I’ve found it very useful. I’ve been using it for a few days from the admin panel without a problem.
Today, I decided to give the shortcode a try and display the list in a page. When I went to save the page, I got the following error message:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at [my blog address stuff]…/wp-content/plugins/cleverness-to-do-list/cleverness-to-do-list.php:725)
Oddly enough, the page did save, which I saw when I went back to look at the page again after exiting the tab with the error. Also, the table displays on the front end of the blog without the error. I hope that helps to pin down the cause of the error.
Let me know if you need any more info.
Thanks again!
Cathy
Thank you for the info. I will look into it
Great plugin!
But I found a little mistake in translation:
On the “Lists To-Do Items”, can not be translated item “None” (it is in the file cleverness-to-do-list.php) in the form of selecting a performer.
Also, when you are on the “cleverness-to-do-list” settings page, the main menu of WordPress, you see that at the same time marked two items “Settings” and “Tools”, although it should be marked only to “Settings”.
Sorry for my lame English.

Sorry for my lame English.
Thanks, I will fix the translation error and look into the other one.
I am not able to get items to save – I add an item it says it has added, but it is not inserted into the database. I have tried many things including removing/uninstalling and reinstalling, etc. I am not sure why it would show me everything and tell me it is adding when it is not.
I did add one manually to the DB and then I could see it fine, delete it, but can’t create one through the UI.
Also, on the ROLES option you state ‘admin’ where I believe the default role is ‘Administrator’.
Please let me know what else I can try to make this work.
Thank you,
Jason
Are you using WordPress 2.9.2? Which PHP version are you using?
I’m going to be modifying how the plugin works (on the code side) next month, since the way the original authors did it is not the best way.
I’ll look into it to see if I can spot the problem and will release a bug fix if I find it, but in any case version 2.0, released by the end of April, should work better.
Hello,
I’ve just installed your plugin and I think it will work great for my sales people to indicate which sales categories they have completed.
However, I think a great addition to your plugin would be a small place next to the to-do item for notes. That might be a huge request.
Thanks in advance for considering it, and great work on the plugin!
Matthew
Thanks for your work on this – great plugin. However I’ve just found that it appears to conflict with ‘Dashboard Heaven’ plugin http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/dashboard-heaven/ which hides all the default dashboard widgets – the to-do list doesn’t show in the Dashboard when ‘Dashboard Heaven’ is activated.
Another dashboard widget that I’ve added with a plugin works fine (Dashboard Post-It http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/dashboard-post-it/) – it would be great if ‘Dashboard Heaven’ and ‘Cleverness To-Do List’ worked well together
Thanks for letting me know
I will take a look sometime to see why it isn’t working with that plugin.
Hi there!
I was wondering if it is somehow possible (it is, but I lack the skill) to add more fields to the todo-list?
The thing is that I am looking for an application/program/whatever to handle our orders. For example:
One of our customers order an item. I type in the order in the todo-list, I want to add the customer’s name, number and where we order the item from. I then want to be able to sort my todo-list based on: Current status (not completed/item ordered/item delivered to customer), Customer name and the name of the company that we order from.
If that is possible I would very much see it implemented. Or if anyone can hint me in the right direction as to how to edit this plugin for my purpose.
This is not something I would be adding to this plugin, although it gives me an idea for an Order Management plugin as a possible future plugin to develop.
In order to add new fields to the list, you will need to edit the switch statements for adding and editing an item along with the functions that perform the actual database work. You will need to edit the install function to add the new fields to the database table. And the new fields would need to be added to the HTML forms to add and edit an item. Sorting the items would be done by changing the SQL statement that selects the item for display.
Whenever I try to edit or delete another user’s to-do item, it says “There was a problem edit the item.” and “There was a problem deleting the item.” respectively. Is there any way to solve this?
I’ve released a bug fix tonight for that, version 2.0.1. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
How do I get the bug fix?
I just installed your plugin. When I try to edit I’m taken to the “To-Do Items and Delete Items page. I’m getting the error message “There was a problem editing the item.
What do I do to fix this? Thanks.
That message will appear when you are editing an item and do not change any values. What field were you changing in the edit window, so I can test?
Congratulations! It was worth the wait, and is now working beautifully in 3.0. Thank you so much for all of your prompt attention and hard work on this great plugin~
Well, darnit, I spoke too soon again, I’m sorry. This time it appears to be a conflict with Slidepress, and it’s a little baffling to me. Whenever I activate ToDoList, some of the menu options in that plugin disappear. Very odd. Any ideas?
It looks like it was caused by having require_once for pluggable.php (in the wp-includes directory) in the main body of the plugin. It seems to work after moving it inside functions for version 2.0.2
Excellent and prompt as usual, will test now and report back
Just updated to the latest and activated, but, got the same result. Half of the options in the Slidepress menu disappeared. Very strange huh? If you’d like to take a look ( I’m in development ), if it would help just email me and I will give you a login okay ~
Aha! I think the real culprit here is the Maintenance Mode plugin. I had ToDo List deactivated and was working in slidepress, when my menus disappeared again. I know that a lot of things have difficulty in communicating when Maintenance Mode is activated, so, I deactivated it, then decided to try the combination of ToDo and Slidepress again, and voila, they are fine together … so far anyway … with maintenance mode deactivated. So sorry if I sent you on a wild goose chase, and thank you so much again for this great bundle of coding.
Glad you got it figured out
I did come with a permission error on the SlidePress plugins setting page when my plugin was activated though, so it wasn’t just a wild goose chase.
First, thanks for sharing this, it adds some great admin functionality. I’m having a small problem getting it working though. It installs okay, and I can access the configuration, but when I try to add an item, when I click “Add Item” I get a blank page that says “Security Check” and nothing gets added. Any ideas? Could it be a permissions problem on my server?
That is due to the WordPress nonce check. When you fill out the form, it passes a nonce value in the form to the plugin, which checks it before adding/editing an item to make sure it really came from WordPress.
What version of WordPress are you using?
I’ll need to look into why it would fail for a valid attempt.
I’m using 2.9.2
I also have a metric ton of other plugins installed, could one of them be conflicting with it, or would that not produce this kind of error?
Try version 2.0.3 of the plugin. I had accidently put a nonce check in the wrong place when moving things around earlier this week, plus I added some code to make sure the value was passed to the function correctly.
Hi there,
I installed your great plugin but it appears at the bottom of my dashboard. I can’t seem to move it to the top/right which is where I would like to place it.
I’ll double check the dashboard widget code to make sure it’s all correct. Are you using any other plugins with dashboard widgets that you are able to move?
It’s working now, thanks!
Can this plugin be modified to allow plain lists. I want to put up a list on my sidebar that I can manually add Bailees Friends as they appear. Too much?
You may have better luck just using a plain text widget in your sidebar for that. This is more designed for things you need to check off.
hi.. i want to edit/add/confirm the to-do-list via the widget.. is that possible?
or where in the php-files do i need to place this pice of code?
echo ‘Confirm/Edit/add‘;
i tried, but im no good in php
thanks for reply
You could try adding it after line 52 in cleverness-to-do-list-widget.php
echo ‘a href =”http:// www. website .com /wp-admin/tools.php?page=cleverness-to-do-list#addtd”>confirm/edit/add<
I absolutely love the plugin, but I have two questions:
1) Is it possible to display not only the posts you are assigned to, but the (yet) unassigned posts as well.
2) Is it possible to order the items in the important, low and normal group in alphabetic order. This is not a huge problem fur sure (just a compulsion).
I will have to think on how best to accomplish question 1, but question 2 can definitely be incorporated as a setting in the next release.
Thank you for your response
Running 2.9.2 and tested on two systems, a Contributor is not included in abilities to use the task system.
Great plugin other than that, exactly what I needed!
Can you elaborate a little? I’m not able to replicate the problem at the moment.
Hi,
Thanks for this plugin ! I’m a new user of WP and so on … so I don’t know exactly where the problem I have comes from :
- I’ve installed the Cleverness To-Do List as usual, using a FTP.
- in my dashboard, the Cleverness plugin doesn’t appear (nor in Tools, nor in Plugins)
- when I want to intall it directly from the Plugin Panel, as it is possible too, it is checked as installed yet.
Is it a problem
- with WP 3 ?
- with my theme configuration(Headlines, from Woothemes) ?
- with another plugin (I use WPML, WP.com stats, Really simple catcha, Members, Google XLM Sitemap, Contact Form 7, Akismet, Add to any)?
Thanks for your help !
I will have to look into that more.
Does the plugin work if you disable the other plugins or use the default theme?
Hi, thanks for the great plugin! I’ve been looking for something like that for ages!
I’m running the plugin on WP 3 and everything’s ok, I just have a question: I run a book review blog and I’d like to have a page with a list of all uncompleted reviews, sorted alphabetically, no matter the priority. I know that someone already asked about the alphabetical order; I just wanted to ask you if there’s a code I may have to add to have it as soon as possible.
Thank you anyway!
Just another little idea I had
Is it possible to personalize the email that can be sent to assigned users? Maybe in the settings? To change it a bit I have to modify the plugin file, but every time that I update I have to do it again. Just an idea
That is a good idea
I will add it in the version after next (I have the next version about 85% complete)
I’ve completed this feature and it will be in the version I’m releasing tonight. Let me know if it needs any adjusting.
You can edit the SQL statement to order by the to-do field:
Assuming you want to use the shortcode –
find where it says:
$sql = “SELECT * FROM $table_name WHERE status = 0 ORDER BY priority”;
and replace priority with todotext.
How can i use the shortcode? I would like to create a separate site for the todo list and have no idea how to do.
You place the shortcode into the content for a post or page.
Hi Cindy
Just done the upgrade to v2.1 and about half way through the assigning groups I viewed the dashboard – it only shows items that are not assigned to groups when the “All” setting is chosen for which groups to display.
I’ve messed around with things like only show users their own items and so forth, and it seems to be pretty constant – it’s as if the “All” selection is only for returning items with no assigned group.
I’ve had to turn groups off for now – but look forward to it being fixed – in this instance, because it’s on a site where I’m the admin and site builder, but the client is the content creator / editor and we have a bunch of other editors due to it being multi-lingual, so the plugin is great for assigning tasks to them.
Thought I’d best let you know about this ASAP
Gaz
I’m having some trouble recreating the problem.
When the Dashboard Category is set to ‘All’ for me, it’s behaving as expected and returning all the categories.
If you set the Dashboard to a specific category, does it display the correct category?
You said you changed some of the settings and it still behaved the same. Was there any settings you were leaving the same? I’m assuming possibly the Category, Group View, and Assign Tasks to Users settings?
Hi, thanks for the great plugin! Everything works fine, but I have a problem when using the shortcode.
You can see it here: http://www.amazingreaders.net/indice-prenotazioni/
Basically when I created the page, I placed the shortcode after a few paragraphs explaining how to use the page. But the list appears before my text!
I’d like to have the text before the list, actually – I tried deleting the cache and everything but still, the list is before the text. How can I fix this?
Thanks!
Thanks for letting me know about this. There was an issue with the shortcode code. I’ve fixed it and will be releasing a new version tonight.
First off, great plugin! I have a problem with backslashes being added to apostrophes in the item box. ie: when I type “I’m” it displays it as “I\’m”
Also, I was wondering if you plan to let users assign “unassigned” items to themselves (and only themselves).
I am using it as a queue system. An admin post to-do items unassigned, which all users can see. I would like authors to be able to “check off” that they want it. Then, it gets assigned to them, which only they (and the admin) can see. All other authors can only see unassigned posts and posts assigned to them. Thanks!
Thanks for the bug notice. I’ll try to get that fixed soon.
That’s an interesting feature possibility. I’ll look into, but August is looking pretty busy at the moment.
Hi. I’m using the plugin on a couple of other sites with no problems at all and find it very useful. However my new install is not adding todos and giving me the following message: “There was a problem adding the item to the database.”
I’m running WordPress Version 3.0.1, PHP Version 5.2.10and mySQL Version 5.1.38-community.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
I’m unable to test on those exact PHP and mySQL versions, but on PHP 5.3 and mySQL 5.1.39 and WP 3.0.1, it is working correctly on a new install for me.
Have you tried deactivating, deleting, and then reinstalling the plugin?
The problem may be it isn’t creating the database tables needed.
Same problem over here. I tried deactivating, deleting, and then reinstalling the plugin with no success. I also tried editing the default task and I get “There was a problem editing the item” when I try saving. Categories can be created though. WordPress 3.0, PHP 5.2.13 and mySQL 5.0.51.
Well, that is odd. It must be creating the tables if the default item is there. And with categories working okay…
I’ll need to take a look at the code that adds and edits tasks.
First, let me thank you for the wonderful plugin. I love how simply it works and I also enjoy the clean look of it.
I have installed it on recup-o-jouets.com and it is working without a problem. The domain is on an Apache server running MySQL 5.0.90, PHP 5.2.13 and WordPress 2.9.2.
The server I mentionned previously is running on windows server 2003, I had to painstakingly setup quite a few things manually on it to have wordpress work. I would tend to blame my server setup for the plugin failure but wouldn’t know what to tweak to fix it.
Two things that could improve the plugin: typing an apostrophe in a task description adds a backslash to the final text when the item is added. Also, it would be an added bonus if it was possible to assign a task to multiple users at once.
Thanks for the quality work.
I just want to add that when I mentioned Windows Server 2003, I meant 2008. Also, one strange thing I noted, and I don’t know if it is related to my other problem, there is no “assign to” user list field when I create a new task or edit the default task. I went and checked the wp_todolist DB with phpmyadmin and there is an “assign” column, but it is “NULL”.
Would like the option to hit “return.” instead of listing everything in one big line.
Also the ability to recognize links and add an href automatically would be nice.
Hi Cindy,
Thank you very much for this very useful plugin. I love it!
I will try to create a dutch translation for you some time in the next few weeks.
I have one small (tiny) issue I’m running into:
When I try to save changes to the settings, I get a ‘You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.’ message.
URL – http://mysite/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cleverness-to-do-list-options%3Fpage%3Dcleverness-to-do-list-options&updated=true
The changes in the settings *are* saved correctly, so there’s no problem there. It is just strange to get that message when all should be fine.
Login in with admin rights.
WordPress v 3.0.1
Plugin v 2.1.3
Thank you
I haven’t been able to reproduce the issue, but will keep in mind that it’s happening when I next work on the plugin.
Hello,
thank you for the wonderful plugin. I use it as a group To-Do-List and assign tasks to group members. The Dashboard shows this very pretty. The widget though doesn’t seem to show the person who got the task assigned. I tried different settings with no success. The widget shows category, task description and progress. Not the person.
I am running the P2 theme on Wp3.0.1 on Apache server PHP5.3. Any idea where I should look for debugging?
Again my warm thank’s for the good work.
Hi Cindy, have you given any thought of incorporating your To-Do plugin into Buddypress, so that to-dos can registered in the activity stream, show up on individual member pages and have a front-end to-do editor to add a new to-do, edit existing to-dos, and mark a a to-do completed, all without having to go into the admin?
Would be a killer feature.
