Quantalog Tasks

Turn on the Tasks app for a shared To do, Doing and Done board with assignees and due dates.

Quantalog Tasks is one shared board for everything your team has to do next: fixing an SEO issue, replying to reviews, writing a post or following up a lead. It is an official Quantalog app: it ships with every workspace and stays off until a workspace admin turns it on.

#Turning Tasks on

Open Apps, find Quantalog Tasks in the Quantalog apps group and press Enable. Tasks then appears in the sidebar for everyone in the workspace.

#The board

  • Tasks are cards in buckets, the board's columns. Every plan starts with six: Backlog, To do, In progress, Review, Blocked and Done. Press Add new bucket at the end of the board to add your own, and use the ⋯ menu on a bucket (or double-click its name) to rename or delete it. Deleting a bucket moves its tasks to another bucket; nothing else is deleted.
  • Drag a card to move it within a bucket or into another one. Click the circle next to a task's name to complete it; completed tasks fold away under Completed tasks at the bottom of each bucket.
  • Use Group by to arrange the columns by Progress, Assigned to or Priority instead. Dragging a card between those columns changes that field.
  • Press Add task at the top of any column to add one straight into it, switch to Grid to see every task in a table, or open Charts for how many tasks are left by status, priority, bucket and person.
  • Search by name, label or task number such as T-12, and click people's pictures above the board to show only their tasks.

#Task details

Click a card to open its details: the name, labels, who it is assigned to, progress, priority (Low, Medium, Important or Urgent), due date, notes, a checklist and a link to a web page or a Quantalog page such as /app/seo. Changes save as you make them. Turn on Show on card to see the checklist on the board. Late tasks show their date in red.

#Assigning tasks

Pick anyone in the workspace as the assignee. They are told in the notification bell straight away. Click your own picture above the board to see only your work.

#Plan limits

Free workspaces can have 50 open tasks at a time, Starter 500 and Pro 5,000. Finished tasks don't count towards the limit.
