  • What about a todo board?

BlackSheep thanks for your kind words. Good to see your face pop up again! ?

This extension most likely will take some time to come available in beta as there is lots to offer in terms of ux and functionality.

I'm curious what others think, eg @Eldenroot @AngelAvila @SierraKiloGulf @[deleted] @UaMV @Prosperous ? Sorry for mentioning you directly but you guys are amongst the people that have always offered great, honest feedback ? ?

      luceos good one.. can be of good use when threads need multiple action steps by different user groups. A great idea indeed

          th30n3 Thank you, I'm considering adding the ability to add an Assignee to a discussion. Just unsure whether to allow one or more and whether to include permission groups as Assignees.

          Thoughts?

              luceos permission to groups would make more sense in case of forums as each user group normally has collective responsibility of something.

                  selcukahmet What about card details? It will be really usefull ( file uploads, rating etc.)

                  For that I was considering several things aside from Assignee;

                  • Native integration with Github and Gitlab, so referencing discussions (or issues by then) in commits or PR's/MR's will auto link them.
                  • Number of comments.
                  • Staleness.
                  • ? ? and so on should not be forgotten on cards ?

                  Cards in the end remain discussions and so, you can use whatever extension you need to enrich the card experience in the detail view.

                    I must personally say that this is the most interesting extension I have seen yet! A kanban board with flarums flavour would be most welcome indeed!

                      andreherberth that is very kind of you. I also feel an interest for this extension, although it feels like quite the undertaking ? Is there anything you think is definitely required for you to adopt such an extension personally and/or professionally?

                          luceos For me to use it professionally, it would need github/gitlab integration.
                          (And as a bonus, being able to click a button to add a card for each open issue ? )

                          Additionally,
                          Setting a soft due date would be good.

                          If one was to use it on a publicly visible board, displaying images like this: https://trello.com/b/DBOhTfQm/rust-concept, would be swell.

                          For using it personally though, setting a fixed due date (With time?) would be the most needed.

                            I would prefer this over using GitHib/GitLab for Scrum/Agile/Kanban. We use it heavily in my company (but mostly Kanban as seen below):

                            [Image is RIP]

                            I would say for additions, Quick Filters are very popular and I would intently use this for ReFlar ?

                            If a git repo manager came along with this extension or further down the line, I'd be sold ✂

                            Though, who says I haven't sold my soul already? ?

                              Ralkage professionally I also use JIRA for everything. Gravure (and so Flagrow in some sense) also uses JIRA. I do like Gitlab and GitHub with their boards (used it previously both professionally and personally), but somehow never got to keep a clear overview. This is also worrying me for this extension.

                              I think a good least of a minimal viable product is needed. So please do send in those requests, I plan on putting in quite some effort in this in the future.

                                This feature is indeed the next big thing! I've been looking for a way to have something exactly like this to keep track of my community projects among my staff inside Flarum. It's gonna be heavily useful for different environments and needs.

                                In addittion, I'd kindly throw my ideas if you haven't thought about these features yet

                                • Having the ability to add a comment (quote) per post tagged on the board page by anyone with permission, for anything that could come on the way. This would make the board itself more useful

                                • And of course: notifications when someone moves from TO DO to DOING, etc.

                                Thank you so much for taking me into consideration! Hope my ideas can be useful for you to develop this piece of diamond!

                                  AngelAvila Having the ability to add a comment (quote) per post tagged on the board page by anyone with permission, for anything that could come on the way. This would make the board itself more useful

                                  Can you explain this. I can't seem to make sense of it, either the heat is catching up or age is.. ?

                                      luceos Hahaha it's mostly because of my English. Apologies. Let me put it this way:

                                      Someone creates a discussion saying: "Hey your website has this bug with this error". Then you classify it into TODO.

                                      After that, someone from your staff knows how to fix it but doesnt have the access/privileges to do it. So in order to make profit of time, this staff member creates a comment inside the board (avoiding everyone but staff knowing/reading the fix in case there could be some private info), with the code/message/stepts to fix it and wait for the responsible person to accomplish that.

                                      EDIT: Or, if the case is that this extension is intended for anyone to read and keep track of the progress, then my suggestion might be a little bit dumb hehe. I was thinking on a more collaborative and secure environment where staff could share some private info in a comment textfield.

                                          AngelAvila well that's a good question. I am basing this on the permissions already existing. If you, as admin, open up discussions but not the board, it's up to you. If you open up the board, but deny writing replies in discussions, that also possible...

                                          This makes it all a lot more complicated and challenging ? ?

                                            @luceos - looks really nice and useful. I can imagine use this plugin on my own board with my colleagues.

                                            I am looking forward ? you can take a lot of ideas from GitHub.

                                            Thank you, keep good work!

                                            It could actually play nice with a "Support" section of a forum.

                                            On a game forum I manage we have a place where people report issues. Having a private kanban with assignees and deadlines would be useful.

                                            Being able to mix a private (admin) discussion with a public topic would also be an amazing feature. That way admins/problem solvers can discuss things without everyone knowing.

                                            I also think at the moment we don't have private tags ? For example some reported issues are really not important/urgent and could go in a secret backlog (so it's still there but admins using the kanban don't see it in the list of things to do). Of course a good GitHub/GitLab integration could also allow this. The private part/tags being the third-party platform.

                                            luceos THIS WOULD BE ONE HECK OF AN AMAZING FEATURE!!!! I love ❤ the idea!!!! I can see it being super handy (for me at least)!

                                              It is a very intriguing concept and one that I reckon would be beneficial in a number of communities on different subjects if I'm honest. I don't know how I would incorporate it into my community for example but definitely useful in the long run even to help engage staff for project work and the like.

                                              Really keen on seeing how this progresses and what you make of it though @luceos. It really is a good idea.
