Sortable Dashboard To-Do List

The plugin adds a sortable to-do list to your WP dashboard. This can be useful for developers, or even for content writers. With the possibility to affect tasks to other users, it’s like having your own mini Trello directly on your dashboard!

NEW! Task Affectation

• To-do list items can be affected to other users
• Users with affected tasks can easily see by whom they were affected, and easily flag them as completed
• Users who affect tasks can easily see which users have completed them, and which still haven’t
• Users who affect tasks can decide if they want affected users to be able to edit the task description
• Affectation ability depends on the current user role
• By default:
  • Administrators can affect tasks to all users with the “edit_posts” capability
  • Editors can affect tasks to editors, contributors, and authors
  • Other user roles can only affect tasks to other users with the same role
• This feature is currently not activated for multisite setups
• 4 WP filters to provide further control on affectation rights

Item Creation

• To-do list item creation, edition and deletion via ajax. No page reload.
• To-do items are timestamped. You’ll never forget when they were created, or when you last edited them.
• The list is individual. Each user has their own list.
• For multisite, it’s one list per user and per site.

Front-end Display

• Option to display the to-do list on the website (for the current logged-in user only).
• Website list can be collapsed and expanded. But website items can currently NOT be edited or sorted.
• Website list remembers its last display state (showed or collapsed)
• Website list remembers the size, position and state of opened to-do items
• Website list can be displayed on the left or right side of the window
• Possibility to decide to not show some to-do items on the website.

WP Filters

Manage affectation rights:

“sdtdl_users_not_allowed_to_affect” to prevent some users to be able to affect items, by returning an array of user IDs: add_filter('sdtdl_users_not_allowed_to_affect',function(){return ['3','6','8'];})

“sdtdl_[user_role]_can_affect_to” to allow a specific user role to affect items to other roles, by returning an array of roles: add_filter('sdtdl_editor_can_affect_to',function(){return ['administrator','editor'];})

“sdtdl_[user_role]_cannot_affect_to_users” to prevent specific roles from affecting tasks to specific users, by returning an array of user IDs: add_filter('sdtdl_[user_role]_cannot_affect_to_users',function($current_user_id){return ['2','4'];})

“sdtdl_never_affect_task_to_users” to prevent specific users from ever being affected any tasks, by return an array of user IDs: add_filter('sdtdl_never_affect_task_to_users',function(){return ['1'];})

Administrators can affect tasks to all user roles with the “edit_posts” capability, but this can also be altered with the previous 3 filters.

Manage list creation rights:

By default, users with the “edit_posts” capability can create a to-do-list
“sdtdl_min_user_capability” to override this minimum capability: add_filter('sdtdl_min_user_capability',function(){return 'publish_posts';})
