Hi Cindy,
I am new to wordpress and I am using buddypress. I need a private to-do list for my members. I installed your plugin; everything is working awesome using the dashboard. However, I want to show a page with a shortcode as “My Todo”; I did use your shortcode and it lists the existing items. However, I want the user to have the ability to add, edit and delete in this page itself. What am I missing.
Thank you,
Joe.
Hi, are you using 2.2.8 or the 2.3 beta? The 2.3 beta has this feature. http://cleverness.org/2011/10/02/to-do-list-plugin-2-3-beta-now-available/
Howdy –
Thanks for all your time and expertise in developing this plugin.
I’ve been using this plugin, version 2.2.8 for a couple of months now and have a few questions:
1.) When ‘table’ is selected, and you have asked that ‘completed items’ to be displayed [todolist type="table" completed="show"], the tables don’t align. Also, it’d be nice to label the list of ‘completed’ items differently and add some horizontal space between the two tables (I’ve been looking at your code and think I can add this manually). Is it possible to show only the completed items in the shortcode, i.e., ['todolist type="table" completed='show'] so it only displays the completed content? I tried not to show the current non completed items and while I was successful at not showing all the options, the items themselves still show up. If I add item=”" then even the completed items disappear.
2.) I am using the Suffusion theme and your widget apparently isn’t compatible; all I get is some text in the background which is covered over with a bunch of the theme’s bullet icons.
I will look into the two issues and see about adding a new option to the short code for completed only.
I’m having trouble trying to figure out how to assign a task to more than one user. If two, or six, people have volunteered to–for example–clean up after the meeting, how can I select them all and have them show up in the “Assigned to” column?

You can only assign a task to one user right now. I’m working on a new version right now and will see about changing it.
Hi can’t add more To-Do in WP 3.2. I have a lot of to-dos though — so think maybe that’s the problem?
About how many do you think you have?
Hi – great plugin, but is there an issue with being able to assign the role of edit to a contibutor? I tried it at the lowest level with “manage options” and when I log in as a contributor I still do not have edit capability – keeps giving the message that I do not have sufficient access. this is on wordpress 3.1
I’ll check it out
Hi, very good plugin.
A few suggestions:
1) Add an “Edit To-Do” link at the bottom of the widget AND the Admin Taskbar when viewing on the front end
2) Like Google’s to-do list, let admin/user can check off the To-Do List on the front page (ajax?)
Best regards.
Cindy,
Is it possible to add the adding and editing todo function to a page.
Would be awesome if some of this features will be included in an update:
* Send a notification when the deadline is almost reached
* Sort on date added, assigned to etc. by click
* Add a comment function
Dear All,
is it possible to set a link or Permalink inside the ToDo textbox, that the link will be shown on the page?
Thanks
Best Hepman
No, not currently but I plan on adding that.
I get “security check failed” when I add a category or task. I have wordpress 3.1.1
What settings are you using? Is it an admin user? I haven’t been able to replicate the issue yet.
Hi Cindy,
I have the same problem.
But I am running it on WordPress MU (I guess Alex and Kathy as well?). The plugin is activated as “Network activate” for all sites and when I then try and add a task on a single site, it gives me “security check failed”
I run WP 3.1.1
Thanks for providing that info. I was able to reproduce the problem, so I will have a fix soon hopefully.
The problem only occurs when Cleverness To-To List is “network activated”. Activating the plugin on a per site basis works fine (doh!). So I guess thats that. Would be nice if “network activate” would work, but that is not really an issue in my opinion.
Error when adding a category – get message “Security Check Failed”
Is there anything else you can tell me about your WP install or To-Do List settings? I haven’t been able to produce the error yet.
It seems the tasks are not being ordered by date…but only by the order I entered them (after the default priority, of course). It does seem to order them by month only, regardless of the entry order, but I really need the items ordered by specific due date, month and day. I’m wondering how to get the to-do items to order by due date, with the earliest due date shown before the later due dates…
Thanks!
I will look into this.
Thanks for the excellent plugin. It has been most useful for me.
Just one small enhancement request:
Make it honor line breaks/carriage returns for an entered task.
I have been manually entering the html br tag for this but it is a bit of a pain and not feasible for the contributers.
Hi,
I installed this plugin on through wordpress and activated it. Having updated the settings I went to the dashboard but the To Do list is not there…is there something I have missed or am doing wrong?
Make sure it’s checked on the Screen Options for the Dashboard. Otherwise, it should be there.
Is there a way to list the Completed items on the list as a strike through or grayed out?
hello, i have some trouble with the to-do list plugin.
the problem is that i cant write in hebrew, when i write in hebrew i see only question marks. i tried to change the format of the php files to utf8 but it dosent change.
This was exactly what i was looking for, great stuff! I did modify it a bit since we don’t assign tasks to people outright. Once a task is checked, it is assigned to the checker and is assigned the appropriate deadline.
Really nice plugin with a lot of capabilities.
Here is my comments:
* I would also suggest to have possibility to comment tasks.
* Can’t really understand difference between Master list and Group List. What is “individual completing of items”?
* There is a “Show Each User Only Their Assigned Tasks”, so if user1 and task for user2, he won’t see this task and can change it. It would be nice to have something like “Show Each User their added tasks” too.
Thank you.
yeah,I just thought you may want to realize that your blog is messed up when you view it on my iphone. I?m not certain if it has something to accomplish with my telephone?s browser or your site? just declaring…
I’m enjoying using this, but I’m wishing there was more. Here are some ideas I’ve had:
* Add a “step#” field (integer) so it’s easier to add things that need to be done in an order. Ensure they’re displayed in order regardless of the sort order selected. You have to prefix names with numbers and sort alphabetically to get it, but if you sort by Categories, they show up backwards or mixed up.
* Primary and secondary sort orders would be good to have, esp. if sorting by category.
* Add the notion of a “task” that consists of several sub-task items. Allow a pre-defined task to be added to the To-Do list, which brings in all of the sub-task items. The completion percentage would be calculated automatically based on how many of the sub-tasks were done. So with 5 subtasks, one finished = 20% done; two = 40% done, and so on.
* Add the ability to add a comment block to each item.
* Add the ability to change the font attributes like color, size, weight, etc., for the three priorities (besides just the label).
* Allow the priorities to be defined as a list by the admin in the Settings panel, so there can be more than just three.
Thank you for all your ideas for new features.
You may be interested in the plugin CollabPress (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/collabpress/) which is more of a project management plugin. It looks like they’ve done a great job with it.
Would be awesome if you could sync the list somehow with your android phone…
