krellan	Posted: Jun 07, 2013 From Topic: Thanks for fixing site, Outlines button was alone at top Wow, I was just about to post this, but did a page refresh and it all came back. My task list in ToodleDo was seriously messed up, and unusable: * No left column, so I couldn't change view * No top bar, so I couldn't create a new task or search * The "Outline" button was the only button visible at all I was dreading this at first, thinking it is one of those "simpler and flatter is better, let's hide everything you need until you mouse over the secret area" redesigns. Glad it's not! Please never do this. I was struggling to figure out how to create a new task. Thanks for fixing it! Josh
krellan	Posted: Nov 29, 2012 From Topic: iOS app update: Version 3.0 includes over 100 improvements. When I saw the update on iTunes, I got a bad feeling. Glad I came to the forum here, to confirm. The App Store's recent reviews are also overwhelmingly negative. What strikes me is the sheer arrogance of this. Why take a good product and ruin it? Why has the developer not responded? Pages of pages of bad reviews, and still no reply. Please explain why a good color scheme had to be faded to gray. Please explain why a good page layout had to become cluttered. Please explain why these changes had to be made at all. I can understand making back end bugfixes and improvements, but why ruin the front end? What's going on here? Did I make a mistake in entrusting my personal to-do list to ToodleDo?
krellan	Posted: Jun 12, 2012 From Topic: Just upgraded to Pro again I just upgraded to Pro again. I had let my earlier subscription lapse, but now I'm back. The reason is the fast response here, from these forums. Even if ToodleDo has some limitations, it's nice to see that they're being addressed, and triaged for future work. Just wanted to say thanks for quickly responding to the questions that I had posted earlier, in the Questions forum. Josh
krellan	Posted: Jun 07, 2012 From Topic: Indicating abandoned task without delete? Thanks! Is it possible to use the Status pulldown, instead of having to apply a tag? Can additional words, such as "Abandoned", be added to the Status pulldown?
krellan	Posted: Jun 07, 2012 From Topic: Indicating abandoned task without delete? Hi! I'd love a way to indicate a task as Abandoned. It would work like Completed, in that it would disappear from the active view. However, I feel like I'm lying to myself, when I check as "Completed" a task that's became irrelevant or that I've given up on, because I never did complete it. Anybody else feel this way? I don't want to delete the task outright, because it would be nice to maintain some record of it. Then, an option to view abandoned tasks could be added, just like how there's an existing option to view completed tasks.
krellan	Posted: Dec 21, 2011 From Topic: Main Toodledo webpage loads very slowly Nice, thanks! My annual renewal's coming up in a month or two, and this is #1 on my list that will determine if I renew or not.
krellan	Posted: Dec 21, 2011 From Topic: Main Toodledo webpage loads very slowly Thanks for the update. The site has just become unusable for me, unfortunately. It takes upwards of 5 minutes to load the page, and I have to keep dismissing Chrome's "JavaScript is running too slowly, kill this page?" prompt. Running with other browsers or other computers doesn't help. Is there a way to use ToodleDo without having to enable JavaScript? That would fix the problem neatly. The problem isn't my Internet connection or anything like that, because the iPhone app works great and is very fast and efficient. It's on the same wireless network. Please, please, try to find some way to keep the page loading fast. The old site, before the "redesign", didn't have this problem at all. I'm sure I can't be the only person who has noticed this!
krellan	Posted: Dec 12, 2011 From Topic: Main Toodledo webpage loads very slowly OK, but the problem didn't happen before, until the "redesign". It was beautifully fast before then. If Toodledo has scaling issues at 1500 tasks, that's something to be concerned about, because I'm sure there's people with more tasks than that. I use Toodledo to gather tasks and prioritize them all for me, and being able to see the "All Tasks" view is important, because it's by far the most useful. Would it be possible to establish a limit on the number of tasks shown per page, perhaps 100, and then give people little arrows they can push at the bottom of the page, to advance to additional pages? It's what large search engines like Google do.
krellan	Posted: Dec 09, 2011 From Topic: Main Toodledo webpage loads very slowly I have a large To-Do list, about 1500 active tasks (it's a very long list that dates back to PalmPilot days). Ever since the "redesign" of the website that took place a few months ago, the main Toodledo webpage has been loading extremely slowly. Chrome pops up the "Kill pages?" watchdog prompt. It's not my computer, because I've also tried with Firefox, and also with other computers. The page just loads extremely slowly: there's a ton of JavaScript happening in the background and slowing everything to a crawl. Is there a way to disable some features, or display an alternate view, to go back to the way it was before the "redesign"? The iPhone Toodledo app is quite fast and responsive, which is a good thing, so I know it's not a problem with Toodledo's backend or my Internet connection. The problem seems isolated to some slow JavaScript on Toodledo's main webpage. Has anybody also experienced this? Josh
krellan	Posted: Aug 24, 2009 From Topic: Discarding tasks, instead of checking them off? I didn't know there was a Status field. How do you edit this, from the Web page? The only fields I see there are the text, the checkbox, Folder, Repeat, Due Date, and Priority.

krellan	Posted: Aug 24, 2009 From Topic: Tasks created on iPhone not Syncing? I haven't had that bug, but have had something similar: if I create a task on the iPhone, or check off a task, or do anything in general that edits the state of the tasks on the iPhone, then sometimes the task list gets truncated. Instead of seeing my normal 200-or-so tasks, I'll only see about 3 of them or so. Kind of scary! However, if I sync several times manually (hitting the "Sync" button), perhaps create a dummy task then check it off, all my tasks will eventually come back. I don't like this bug, and wish that the application would be more careful with my data. I haven't lost data yet, but feel that I have came dangerously close. One thing I've learned: DO NOT interrupt the ToodleDo iPhone application while the little blue bar is on the bottom of the screen! This means that it is in the progress of syncing. Let it complete its sync, before exiting the app. I've found that the bug often happens if I exit the app too early, before it has had a chance to finish syncing.
krellan	Posted: Aug 18, 2009 From Topic: Discarding tasks, instead of checking them off? Question: Is there a way to mark a task as discarded? I'd like to do this, instead of checking off tasks, for tasks that can't be completed for one reason or another. I don't want to completely delete the task, because that loses information. For similar reasons, I don't want to "cheat" and check off a task that was not successfully completed in real life. Ideally, this "Discard" option, would retire a task from the importance list, similarly to checking it off, but without actually checking it off. A filter option "Show Discarded Tasks" would work similarly to the existing Show Completed Tasks. Thanks for reading this! Josh
krellan	Posted: Aug 18, 2009 From Topic: How about wiki Syntax in notes? Please, if "smart formatting" of any sort is implemented... have an escape for it! This applies to Wiki syntax, HTML, Microsoft AutoFormat syntax, or similar. I often cut-and-paste code snippets and such. Any kind of "smart formatting" breaks this. This is especially irksome with Evernote. There's no way to just declare a note to be pure plain text, without formatting. If you cut and paste stuff into Evernote, it gets marked up, often against your will. I'm hoping ToodleDo can remain "plain text friendly"!
krellan	Posted: Jul 29, 2009 From Topic: Does Pro allow exceed of 1MB size limit for upload? Thanks! I tried again in Palm Desktop, for Windows. I exported all records, to a file in "To Do" (not Tasks) format, using .tda extension. It seemed to work MUCH better. The file size was only 189KB! I have a total of 1561 tasks, of which 207 are not completed (sigh). They seemed to all import into ToodleDo without a problem! That's really good.
krellan	Posted: Jul 28, 2009 From Topic: Does Pro allow exceed of 1MB size limit for upload? Thanks! I'd be curious as to what you find.
krellan	Posted: Jul 28, 2009 From Topic: Does Pro allow exceed of 1MB size limit for upload? Hi! I'm one of the many "Palm refugees" who are migrating years of data from Palm OS to iPhone/cloud storage. I'm looking at ToodleDo, and it seems very promising, especially the many varied import/export options. Does buying a Pro account, on ToodleDo, allow for exceeding the 1MB size limit of uploads, when syncing data? Currently, my iCal file is 29MB. I'm not sure how to break up the iCal file into its individual components (calendars, to do lists). I will try my Palm Desktop file soon. I'd love to be able to break the 1MB size limit. This is a feature I'd gladly upgrade to a Pro account for! It would most likely be a one-time thing, to upload all of my old Palm data. Then, individual edits should be very small, from that point forward. Thank you! Josh
