Kanban Board for Microsoft Outlook Tasks

Idea: Instead of the text-based configuration in an Outlook Journal entry, have some sort of dialogue opening, offering configuration options.
I'm not sure how exactly to implement this, and I probably won't have time to take care of it myself. But if anyone has an idea for an efficient way of implementing this, it would probably make the taskboard a lot more usable.
I am trying to create multiple task folders which are all individual projects with own kanban.
Also this task-folder with configuration should be shareable with my collegues.
Is this doable?
I am happy to help out, but please provide some pointers to what is needed to get this working.
Best
It might be nice to be able to add tasks directly to those lanes as well. Also see discussion in #7.
maltehi,
I've tried using evrenvarol's fix to add the To-Do List items to include any flagged emails. I haven't been able to have success adding his code to yours. Could you see what my problem is and potentially add this feature to the taskboard?
everenvarol's fix:
evrenvarol@011f814
evrenvarol@a3da5be
My attempt:
app To-Do Items fix attempt.txt
Thanks!
Multiple instances accessing the same KanbanConfig (e.g. on an Exchange server) often end up creating modification conflicts, even if the files are identical.
Maybe do this while reading in task list
the default is the white mode, but the new dark grey mode is what i use so its a little jarring since everything i do is in dark mode, allow an option that can change the CSS background colors to match the themes?
✔️Default
❌Dark Mode: background: #6A6A6A
See discussion in #7
The Kanbanboard uses the status of a task to work with.
On iOS i cannot see the status within the iOS reminders app. It is only possible to work with folders. Is there a possibility that the board recognizes if I move a task between folders?
Also if I finish a task, it wont be recognized on the board, because the iOS app isnt changing the status.
And if I add a new task via iOS it also wont be recognized by the board, because the status is "not started" and the backlog need the status "deferred"
Loading of the task board can take quite long, especially when many tasks have to be displayed. This can have a considerable impact on the workflow, since the taskboard is reloaded after any task is changed in order to keep the overview up to date.
The process of loading the tasks from Outlook should be looked into and, if possible, made more efficient.
HI,
Using French Canada Outlook 365, my tasks are not showing in the swimlane. I still see the number. Lost the feature since update last month.
I tried reinstalling again without success
Any thoughts?
Issue copied from internal repo:
When I edit a task and add a second category, this change is automatically shown in the Kanban view. When adding a third category, the Kanban view does not change. Also not when saving and closing the Task.
Only after hitting F5, the change is also reflected in the Kanban view.
The same happens when removing categories. The first removed category is also removed from the Kanban view. Any further changes are not reflected.
I'm using the taskboard from within Microsoft Outlook.
Hello maltehi,
First of all I wanted to thank you for your work, I have been using it for 1 year now and I find this tool really effective. i love it !!
I don't know if I'm in the right place to ask this question, but I'm going to do it.
How can we make sure that in the Status Report the information of each task appears ( ##to do, ##status, ##issues, ##reference)?
I don't know if I'm perfectly clear in my request... but thank you in advance
Hi,
I try to use outlook-taskboard with outlook 2019, but so far without success.
When the html is loaded I only got an empty popup and could see the search bar, but not much more.
I now added a way to send some debug messages via popups and could narrow down the (first?) problem to this line:
var configFound = false;
if (configItems.Count > 0) {
var configItem = configItems(1);
var prop = configItem.ItemProperties
writeLog('Prop7: ' + prop(7).Name) // Here "Body" is available as property
// Get text
try {
writeLog('Debug 1'); // printed
var configText = configItem.Body;
writeLog('Debug 2'); // not printed anymore
}
catch (err) {
if (configItem.IsConflict) {
alert("The configuration could not be loaded. There seems to be a modification " +
"conflict with the configuration object in Outlook. Look for an entry called \'" +
+ $scope.configName + "\' in Outlook's Journal folder and resolve the conflict, then try again.")
}
else {
writeLog('Debug 3' + err.message); // control flow ends up here, message is empty
alert(err.message)
}
It looks to me that accessing the Body property of the configItem
fails. Have you experienced this or know how to investigate further? Maybe there is a (new) registry setting preventing access?
I am a bit lost now.
Hi there
First: I love this Kanban Board and it was exactly what I needed. The changes re Status and the new drag & drop are great!
My questions:
I cannot see any change whenever I change the "sort" values in the config. I've tried "subject" first, but it does not seem to work, all taks are still in some kind of other order (I don't have priorities so far).
Then I tried "categoryNames" but this did not work either.
If (!) it will work somehow, could I add more or other sort options? In a task I work with the field "Firma" (German, probably "company" in english) which I can see under the "Details" tab in a task. I would like to sort columns by this field, if possible...
If all of this is not working, can I set Sort to "no sorting"?
And could I add more columns with new statuses?
Thanks for your help!
Thanks all for the good work on this, I can confirm full functionality on Windows 7 (64-bit) with MS Office Pro Plus 2013 (32-bit). I used the method where I replaced my home page location for my main account folder, but also works in IE and Chrome (with IE Tab extension) once ActiveX controls are enabled.
A couple things I've noticed, and I'm sure I can probably modify for my needs, just either haven't found the setting or dove into the code yet.
If you deactivate the 'Next' folder you do not see new tasks. I do not use Next so I've changed the title of Next to In Progress and disabled the In Progress folder. What determines the default folder where new tasks are created or sorted to by default?
I would suggest adding a setting which provides the ability to remove the Reminder info within the task list items. I have commented this out on my end for now, may try to add a setting when I have some time.
Off topic (Outlook specific): Do you happen to know of a switch/setting in Outlook that will permanently allow access, so that you can avoid the frequent "Allow access" notification? By default, the maximum duration that can be allowed is 10 minutes, at which time you must approve again.
Thanks again! This will really streamline my workflow and I've already eliminated the Meistertask, Notion.so, and OneNote kanban boards that I was using.
Set this up on Windows 10 and Office 2019. The functionality all seems to be there, but the icons don’t appear. You can still click the buttons, but without knowing where the buttons are, you wouldn’t know where to click, or if new, that any buttons actually existed.
