    Hi Brajesh,
    The most wanted – or missing feature for BP-based collaboration is a simple “Task Manager” or To-do list. A few plugins are around…
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/cleverness-to-do-list/ or
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/collabpress/
    …but would say they are not up-to-date, to complicated or not well supported.

    For Easy Digital Downloads there is a premium add-on…
    https://easydigitaldownloads.com/downloads/product-support/
    …but again: EDD isn’t needed for most communities, they don’t sell. Anyway, this add-on leads me to the following idea.*

    First of all: for collaboration we need a simple solution what should be based on components we already have, BP and bbPress. Topics can also be To-dos. And to start with, only three things are missing in bbPress:

    – a field to assign a topic (a “to-do”) to a user
    – a deadline (date field)
    – a status (not finished, on hold, finished – something like that)

    The third point could be based on a plugin imath already did…
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddy-bbpress-support-topic/

    * I will send you an image by email to show you what I’ve found based on EDD.

    Is this something you can provide, a bbPress (!) plugin to extend BP-based collaboration?

    Thank you,
    Hans

    Hi Hans,
    Thank you.
    Does not this plugin fills 90% of what you are looking at ?

    “Last Updated: 5 years ago” – no way.

    buddydev code is needed… what I wrote: something that’s up-to-date, not to complicated AND well supported.

    Hi Brajesh,
    one solution could be to use…
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/zendesk/
    …but that way the “to-dos” are no longer inside a wp/bp installation (not private) – and not integrated into users & groups what’s definitely not user/team/workflow friendly.
    I will also ping jjj to see what his thoughts are…
    Thanks,
    Hans

    Hi Hans,
    I will be taking over it in next 2 week. Actually, It can be quiet useful for our own forum and I wanted to add some features here. So I think your topic is a good start for that.

    Let us keep it open and I will keep you updated.

    Sounds good! Thanks Brajesh

    It’s really the most wanted feature… All members in a team have to do some tasks while collaborate and it’s important to know who, when etc.

    PS: One more thought: there should be a new sub-tab in /members/username/forums/ with the “to-dos” I’m assigned to…

    Hi Brajesh,
    It’s interesting to see what Google integrated in their G Suite with Action Items…

    https://www.blog.google/products/g-suite/five-new-ways-reach-your-goals-faster-g-suite/

    But would say it’s still a good idea to do something re “to-dos” based on bbPress.

    Hi Hans,
    Welcome back. It is nice to see you and I hope you are doing well.

    Thank you for that link. Those are smart actionable items. I will certainly do it but a little bit delayed. I am sorry but due to current work queue, It is a little bit low on my priority.

    Regards
    Brajesh
