Description
BuddyTask is a WordPress plugin that allows the members of a community to manage their tasks and workflows by using a KanBan like board. BuddyTask deeply integrates with BuddyPress (2.5+) and offers the following features:
- Ability to add a KanBan like board in Buddypress Groups where all the members of a group can organize their tasks
- Ability to add a KanBan like board in any Post or Page by simply using the [buddytask] shortcode
- Ability to assign tasks to specific group members or registered users
- Ability to break down a task into multiple sub-tasks or todos in order to better track their completion
- Ability for the users to prioritize the tasks and their sub-tasks by simply using drag and drop
- Integrates with the notification system of BuddyPress in order to notify the users about any changes in their assigned tasks.
- Automatic calculation and representation of the percentage of completion of each task
- Automatic sync of the board among all its users in the background, without the need to refresh the page
This plugin is available in english.
