We are organized into Committees – so really I’m looking for members to be able to create ad-hoc projects under each Committee (presumably I could use Categories for this), assign a selection of members to the project, assign tasks and track progress. You have a frustratingly large amount of these features, but what’s missing is…

1) ability to create projects and posts through the frontend (I’d want an ability to add the category to the shortcode, so the project would be automatically created under the right Committee, when placed on a Committee page)

2) A list of projects with their status (which you already have) but filtered by the category (so I could display under each Committee the projects for that committee

3) a front-end project page with a description of the project, list of tasks with statuses for that project, and maybe last comment posted for that task

4) a front-end task page showing the description of the task and all comments with ability to comment of course. (the drill-through destination for lists of tasks)

5) a list of tasks by project that the logged-in user was assigned to, with latest activity

6) WIDGETS:
a) My tasks (shortcode option to filter by category)
b) My Projects
c) All Projects (option to filter by category

Hmm – ok – that’s quite a list!!! On the flip side I might be interested in contributing if I can’t find another WP plugin which better suites my needs….CollabPress is another solution I’m looking at…

I installed no problem…

What are “Categories” in Propel used for. I assume there are:

Projects
People
Tasks

1. Categories are for…?

2. Where and how do I assign tasks to the client?

3. Where and how do I assign tasks to myself?

4. Please can you tell me what code to edit, so I can place “Add new” in the Propel/WP sidebar fly out? So I don’t have to click “All Projects”, wait, then click “Add new”. Please could you tell me?

5. The screenshots that show the blue bar status/level of completion… Where can I put the different % in as I go along? (So the bar moves along). I found there is only a drop down, no place to put a number – Do you know what I code I can change so it’s a text box (so we can put any number)? Is that possible?

6. How do I assign multiple tasks to a project?

7. Where do I find the user guide? (I’m just asking as it was not in the download, I did a search of your site and in Google, but didn’t find one).

8. When client has a task to complete and upload some word or OpenOffice docs (for example), where do they click to attach/upload to the assigned task?

9. When I add task and assign it to a person, will that person get the email notification? Or do I have to manually send an email?

10. When a client adds task and assigns it to me, will I get the email notification? Or do they have to manually send an email?

11. Where can I manually tweak the email template(s) for task notifications?

12. How do I ensure that each project is not public?

13. How do I ensure that each client can only interact and see their own project(s)?

I know it’s a lot of questions, and I appreciate anyone’s time to answer.

I saw the message and I always have a backup. And the one I updated was a beta site so I didn’t have any loss.

I just thought I’d let you know about the crash so you could investigate it before it happens to others.
