Sometimes the smallest changes are the best

It just occurred to me that i could make a really useful enhancement to the search page. When you search for tasks you will now get them ordered by due date (the due date also appears for you) and you can tick them off right from the search page. It’s like a mini filtered workload list.

So i’ve got the vacuum cleaner out and i know i’m going to be ticking off all my vacuuming tasks, i can simply search for ‘vacuum’ and get the results like this:

search tasks and tick them off

If you have JavaScript enabled you can have the tick-and-fade effect just like in the workload list, meaning you don’t lose your search results. I think this will be very helpful.

I guess i’ll be off to vacuum the kitchen then! :P

Oh, there was one other change. When exporting tasks to a spreadsheet, the description field is now included too. I forget who asked for that feature. I hope it is helpful. It doesn’t handle multi-line fields very well due to the limitations of .csv files, but hopefully it will suit most peoples needs.
