Posted Oct 17, 2016 in: Tasks that are only relevant during certain times of the year?
Score: 0
I have seasonal chores too. Here's what I do...
1) In Notes, I make a list of tasks stacked one on top of the other. 2) When it's time to load all those tasks for the specific season, I copy them 3) I create a new task, click on the "Add multiple Tasks" hyperlink 4) Paste them into a new task and click accept. Now I just created 15 seasonal tasks. I'll also use a symbol like ">" so I know that task is a special one I added in a certain way. Here's an example of mine. I also use a header to identify each season. WINTER TASKS >XMAS lights DOWN-Jan >XMAS tree & decorations DOWN-Jan >FURNACE Clean & Check >TREE Prune Front Tree-March >Humidifier setup Ours-Dec >BUSHES (north) trim-Feb/March |

Posted Mar 06, 2016 in: We Need Examples of Search Criteria
Score: 1
Hi All,
I have been a user of ToodleDo for about 5 years and enjoy the many benefits it has to offer. I’ve used simple search criteria for saved searches. I understand Boolean logic with AND / OR statements etc. However, why have I just spent the last 1 ½ hour on a Sunday Morning with my coffee struggling to create a simple search with subtasks??? ToodleDo tease us with subtask criteria (Is Subtasks…Has subtasks) but I can’t get it to work ever! I went to the FAQ help area for this topic and it was too superficial for someone actually attempting to get results. Here’s my suggestion. We need visual examples of criteria that can generate search results. Screen shots of syntax that can be modeled. Example: “To search for subtasks in 2 of 4 specific Parent tasks that have the context of XXX” Then, here’s what the syntax should be (Screenshot). Visually show us how you built it properly in the Advanced Search screen so users can model their criteria to fit the example. Speaking for myself (and I’m sure others would appreciate it), 4 or 5 examples would probably go LIGHTYEARS in helping many of us to take advantage of the powerful features ToodleDo has to offer. Thanks for considering! |

I second that idea for some kind of "Drag and Drop" capability...and color scheme for priority. Here's what I do to "modify" the way to execute this...
Instead of folders, I name specific "Categories" as parent tasks in a single folder. Then, I can "Drag & Drop" them back and forth (because you can drag child tasks between parents). I also use Stylish to define my own colors for each Priority. Mine are: Top=Bold Red High=Bold Blue Medium=Bold Black Low & Negative=dark green not bold I basically took one of their stylesheets, figured out how to change the code for my colors and discarded the rest. In fact, I saved the code in one of my tasks and can use it any time I need to! Here's what I did. I went to this site: https://userstyles.org/styles/browse/toodledo and chose a Toodledo style and then pasted in my code into the section. For colors, you can change the number ###### by picking a color and the corresponding number. Check this or other sites for internet colors: http://www.astrodigital.org/digital/htmlcolors.html Lastly, here's a screen shot too. http://ul.to/i6ylhd9f MickeyVee |

Score: 0
Yes, please move both the "Add Task" and "Save" to the left side. We read from left to right and design should assist function...not make it harder to execute.
Oooops...should have read the first post! Sorry for the redundancy. However, it's says something when two separate people say almost the same words. This message was edited Oct 28, 2015. |

Hey Brian...here's a screen shot too.
http://ul.to/i6ylhd9f I like doing it this way because I can click and drag tasks between my Parent tasks. This is something you can't do in Folders, priorities etc. This message was edited Oct 17, 2015. |

Posted Oct 10, 2015 in: Search to display subtasks
Score: 0
I am trying to create a search which displays one parent task and all of its child tasks. I have my subtasks set to hidden in my folder. How do I create a search that will display ALL the tasks (without including completed or future tasks)???
I found this post (which didn't help). http://www.toodledo.com/forums/2/20185/0/overide-show-all-to-show-subtasks-when-searching-parent-tasks.html Suggestions? I just want to be able to set priority of all the child tasks to Medium using Multi edit. Thanks! This message was edited Oct 10, 2015. |

Hi feinbergc & Brian,
I too wanted to color code me tasks by priority, I needed a quick color key so I can glance over my tasks to see what needs attention. I hope toodledo is working on colors in the upcoming updates. Mine are: Top=Bold Red High=Bold Blue Medium=Bold Black Low & Negative=dark green not bold Here's what I did. I went to this site: https://userstyles.org/styles/browse/toodledo and chose a Toodledo style and then pasted the code below into the section. For colors, you can change the number ###### by picking a color and the corresponding number. Check this or other sites for internet colors: http://www.astrodigital.org/digital/htmlcolors.html Here's my code: /* the code in here only applies to: -pages on the domain toodledo.com */ #tasks { font-family: Tahoma !important; color: #595959 !important; } .pri-1 { color: #474C49 !important; font-weight: normal !important; } /* This is LOW Priority */ .pri0 { color: #035018 !important; font-weight: normal !important; } /* This is Medium Priority BLACK */ .pri1 { color: #050505 !important; font-weight: bold !important; } /* This is HIGH Priority BLUE */ .pri2 { color: #3333FF !important; font-weight: bold !important; font:13px arial,italic; } /* This is Top Priority RED */ .pri3 { color: #FF0303 !important; font-weight: bold !important; font:13px arial,italic; } END OF CODE DO NOT INCLUDE |

Posted Apr 21, 2015 in: Toodledo Structure for personal vs. work
Score: 0
Hi acc.mcpherson,
I keep WORK and HOME totally separated. I have two folders and work in each one separately. Two move one to the other, I just change the folder field. In each folder, I have some Main parent tasks that look like this: >>>>>>>>>>>>TODAY<<<<<<<<<<<<< Task 1 Task 2 >>>>>>>>>>>WEEK<<<<<<<<< Task 3 Task 4 Then I have subtasks that fall below each main task. The reason is I can "click and drag" subtasks from one task to the other. (Dragging functionality is something I wish was more prevalent in Toodledo.) |

Posted Apr 12, 2015 in: Ultimate To-Do: Make view displaying subtasks correctly?
Score: 0
I use folders, tasks /subtasks, and repeating tasks driven from Start Date in Toodledo. I'm trying to create this view for each folder in UTD. I'm successful in the main folder view but my subtask view is displaying all the future tasks too! Here is my criteria and display settings:
Task not complete Folder = work Start Date on or before today Subtask Display setting: Hidden (accessible via long press) It is still displaying any repeating task that occurs in the future. I don't want to see future tasks. I tried to rearrange the order of fields and can't get the future subtasks (driven by start date) to disappear from any of my folders. Also, this is only happening in subtasks...not parent tasks in the folder. I'm using Hidden (accessible via long press) All my folders are displaying future tasks like this. Any other ideas? |

When I print out my outline, it is outputted to about 8 point font. Any way (or trick) to increase the size when printed to paper? Or copy it to MS Word so it looks like an outline? I tried all of the export solutions but none work for me.

I use it to plan out my weekly 1 on 1 agenda with my employees and my boss. Each employee has their own outline. Clone tool helps too.
However, would I rather have a more colorful, click and drag to do list? YES!! |

Can I have a repeating task that has the star already selected? For weekly tasks that I automatically want on my "Do Today" without having to select it.
