    Hi!
    Thanks for the nice plugin!

    Several points though:
    1. ToDos in languages other than English don’t show up correctly. In my case it was Russian (“?” shown instead of characters).
    2. “Ready” and “Add new item” overlaps with each other (Firefox).

    Question:
    How to remove ToDo item from the list? Just hitting on “Ready” don’t help at all (no changes happend).

    Feature Request:
    Is it possible to make two buttons under every item: “Done” and “Remove”. “Done” will render item in strikeout font indicating already completed task. “Remove” will remove task from the list. “Done” is needed to evaluate performance and review list of completed tasks withing period of time (e.g. during the day/week/etc.).

    Thanks in advance.

    @Pavel,

    What kind of charset do you use for the Russian Language? If you don’t know the answer: Go go your admin panel -> Settings -> Reading Settings.

    The last field in the settings form is Encoding for pages and feeds. In my case this value is UTF-8 but what’s yours?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    Can you please fix the plugin’s directories? They’re still all messed up on Wordpress Plugins. (I don’t think someone needs to upload 300 files for this plugin?!)

    [...] WordPress Easy Todo Hiervon hat zwar der Leser nichts, aber das Dashbord im Adminbereich wird um eine nützliche Funktion erweitert: eine To-Do-Liste. Für jemanden, der ähnlich vergesslich ist wie ich, ist dieses PlugIn quasi ein muss. Außerdem hat man die Möglichkeit, Aufgaben einzelen Autoren zuzuteilen (sofern vorhanden) Ich füge einfach mal einen kleinen Screenshot hier ein, damit ihr euch ein Bild machen könnt. [...]

    Manu says:

    Hi this plugin is just what I needed!
    But it doesn’t work :-(
    Actually everything works except the “add new item” button that links to my admin/index.php# page.
    It’s kinda sad but I’ll get over it eventually…

    Ortixia says:

    I am having the same problem as Manu above. I cannot ‘delete’ as well.
    the links just return to the same address. index.php#
    i am still investigating.

    Crispijn says:

    Hi there,

    I’ll try to fix it this evening. The links are ajaxified and it has to work just as you expected but it isn’t. I hope to release a fix this evening!

    I’ve fixed the bugs so everything would be fine after the new version, version 1.1.4, is available in the plugin directory!

    Teh Dude says:

    I’m trying to display a avatar on the dashboard widget, I get all the to show correctly, but now it shows “Added by 0″ in the dashboard… I looked into the mySQL database, the add_user field all have 0 id. I tried to look into the code of wp_easy_todo.php, for clues which part writes the todo creator id to database, but couldn’t make it out. I created the todo’s as admin, for editor profiles, tried also as editor, but still the same

    Hi! I Like the plugin a lot.

    Sugestion: I now the plugin is to admin area, bit will be cool to put it as a widget to show to user my todo list.

    Thanks by very good work

    FYI

    Installation in WP 2.9.2 triggered fatal error:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /nfs/c01/h08/mnt/12492/domains/blog.woodenfoundations.com/html/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-easy-todo/wp_easy_todo.php on line 193

    It was downloaded from WP plugin depository.

    This plugin could be great if there wasn’t some missing files that slowing down the loading of the whole page.

    /wordpress-easy-todo/js/jquery-1.3.2.js -> missing file
    /wordpress-easy-todo/js/jquery-color.js -> missing file

    total loading time: 6 seconds.

    Crispijn says:

    I’ve updated the plugin to v1.1.6. The jquery files are not required for the plugin so I’ve removed the script tags pointing to these files.

    Hope you’ll enjoy!

    thanks for this quick fix ;) I was ready to delete this plugin and choose another one.

    It’s not updated on the Wordpress plugin database ?

    kalamity says:

    Hi,
    Great plugin ! Here is my suggestion :
    Why do you think of an integration of your plugin in the admin menu so that we could have access to our todo list. You could also display the number of todo thing remaining.

    Tell me if you implement those suggestions, thx :)

    Is there any possibility to embed this plugin in the frontend of my Blog?

  27. April 15th, 2010 at 00:53

    Niels says:

    Thanks for the quick fixes Crispijn. One more thing: You’ll need to update the version reference at WP plugin depository as it says version 1.1.5 and therefore the new version is not registering when I attempt to update through my wordpress backend. Thanks :-)

  28. April 15th, 2010 at 01:16

    Niels says:

    Just had another look at the plugin code and saw that you are referencing jquery and the jquery color plugin. These should be referenced using the ‘wp_enqueue_script’ function to avoid conflicts and duplicate script loading.

    Both scripts are available in the wp_includes/js/jquery directory.

    Enqueue scripts like this:

    wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’); // for jquery
    wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery.validate’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/js/jquery.validate.js’, ‘jquery’, ‘1.5.5′);

    I installed it to Wordpress 2.2.1. It didn’t show it on the dashboard. Do i have to add a code to dashboard?

    Crispijn says:

    I haven’t test the plugin for WP 2.2.1… I’ve build it for WP > 2.5… Consider to upgrade to the latest version of WP!

    Tim says:

    Hi, seems like this could be a great plugin, but doesn’t work for me

    I’m using WP 3.0, Easy Todo 1.1.5. As stated above WP doesn’t have your latest 1.1.6.

    On my admin dashboard I see:

    [add new item] (button)
    There are no things todo!
    [add new item] (button) Q: Why two add new item buttons?

    Also, when I try either of the buttons and enter some text, the
    page flickers and then goes back to the original display.

    Feature Request(s)
    1. Any way this could be displayed on as a widget on a page?
    I actually use WP as my own internal diary, it would be cool
    to see it on my post(s) pages or at least on my user dashboard
    2. could todo’s have dates associated with them and could they
    some how connect to the calendar. Thats probably a bit too much
    to ask for.
