I’m just about done with the IP.Dynamic task manager. As the name suggests, it’s a little corner of the CMS to organize you and your staff.
It should be pretty self explanatory as-is. Just after I took the movie capture, I added in a check box to ‘Hide Completed Tasks’ and made it so the settings are stored in a cookie so they are remembered across pages and when you return.

Looks good Matt. I can’t wait to get my hands on it. This feature, along with the Calendar, could really assist my site in organizing all of our various projects.

Excellent job on this Task Manager, Matt; it’s very impressive and intuitive, and looks very nice on how it’s laid out!

Interesting that you say it’s pretty self explanatory, yet when I saw the title of the blog entry I immediately thought it was to do with an automated task manager, I.E. what IPB has. Does IPD not have something similar? If so, what’s it called?

I so wish some things of IPD (Besides calendar) were in IPB. Anything besides the calendar (last blog-post) going to be in IPB 3.x series?

“yet when I saw the title of the blog entry I immediately thought it was to do with an automated task manager”
Yes, IPD has this also. I’ve renamed that “System Task Manager” and the new feature “Project Task Management”

With all of these components, you have the framework and building blocks of a bug-tracking system…it’s just spread out amongst your different products.
I do have to wonder though, do you plan on using this over your Post-It notes now?

It would be neat to have some sort of Bug Tracking System implemented into IPD, or could be created by IPS as an add-on component.
Good question Brendon asked about your Post-It notes; which will you use now, Matt?

My personal thoughts on whether a bug tracking system developed by Invision Power should be implemented into, or created as an add-on… Well, since all of their products are implemented to use a single user database, I can’t say it wouldn’t be an add-on, but I would suggest if thought has gone on about creating one, not to have it as an after-thought add-on. It would be much more valuable as its own product, imo. Planning from the ground up could make it much more powerful and feature rich, as well as specific to its own needs rather than relying on the needs of an outside component or product.
Now, I don’t think this would be as much of a highly bought product as the other products primarily for the fact that it’s catering to a much more specific marketing niche. However, since a majority of the components have already been created in other products, putting one together might be pretty easy, and still make a little profit from it.

Hey there, have to say this is brilliant Matt great work, because this is for IPD I have kind of made a component out of it for IP.Board, just one question, not sure if you can tell me this, in those file browser drop down images. Does it say edit and delete?
