Great Add-On to my Outlook - but seems there is a bug #33
Comments
|
That is an issue that I fixed in my fork of the project. I am still working on some features, but if you are a bit familiar with javascript and angular you can copy my filter implementation |
|
Hi, okay, sounds good. I just tried to use your fork files. But i did not get any task shown in the kanban. What is the trick? |
|
Just check your folders if they look like this: |
|
Yepp, i checked to folders a couple of times. This is what i have right now:
But now tasks in the Kanban:
Adding tasks via "+" works for me. Maybe there is setting i missed to show tasks from "Tasks" folder instead of "Taken"? Greetings |
|
Hmm... No, the language of the Tasks folder is not an issue. Can you try what happens when you switch the state saving and the privacy filter off in the config file? |
|
Hi Harald,
Based on the column names and the colors this looks like a fork I created
that does not use drag and drop, rather the status of the tasks in Outlook
itself to move through the folders.
Re showing tasks, check the folder you created to hold all tasks matches
the config. I think all your tasks are in the root tasks folder. Add one
room that folder and see if it presents on the taskboard.

Hi BillyMcSkintos, You are right. I forked your version, because I liked your use of the task statuses. I also changed the filter to work on the $scope instead of in the Angular view. Otherwise drag&drop had a strange behavior when a filter is active. |
|
@janvv "privacy_filter": false > the icon vanishes; nothing else happens; i played a little with the config and i see this: to make it clear, this line brings this output:
Any idea? Many Thanks in advance. |
|
No idea. Hold on... I'll make a branch with some error logging alerts in it. |
|
Take the errorlogging branch. That will hopefully make clear what the difference is between your and my situation. |
|
Fantastic, thank you for taking my branch and making it better, I had no
idea! Gonna use yours instead. I've been trying to figure out how to put a
date range filter on the completed column to hide old completed tasks, is
that something you might know how to do?

Good idea, I am going to add a configurable date filter, because everyone would want to have a different range, or no range at all.
In the meantime just use the archive link. In the original version of Evren Varol that button moves the completed tasks back to the Tasks folder. I decided to use a separate folder for completed tasks. After they have been in the completed lane for a few days I just click the archive button.
What do you think of setting it up like this:
// Configure what needs to be done with completed tasks
// N.B. 0 days means immediately
'COMPLETED_ACTION': {
'AFTER_X_DAYS': 7,
'ACTION': 'HIDE' // the options are: NONE, HIDE, ARCHIVE, DELETE
}
The Hide option just filters the completed tasks to not show them after x days of completion.
The Archive option will automatically perform the archive function after x days.
And the Delete option will just throw them in the bin.
Using 0 days will do the action immediately after the task is set to completed.
If you have other ideas, please let me know.
UPDATE 20-08 21:20: It works! :-)

@janvv here are the error messages triggered by the errorlog branch. I'm not a very technical guy, but seems its sth to do with language support. Isn't it?
|
|
@janvv , switched to german status, bämm, it works like a charm: 'BACKLOG_FOLDER': { Name: '', Title: 'BACKLOG', Limit: 0, Sort: "-priority, duedate", Restrict: "[Status] = 'Nicht begonnen'" }, |
|
Oh wow. Wunderbar!!
Means that I have to work on internationalization too. I want to make it as generic as possible.
Great that you found the issue, and a bit clumsy that Outlook requires us to use the translated statuses. When I move this filter to the app.js we can avoid that.
This becomes a project that is a bit bigger than I expected, but I like it. :-)

@BillyMcSkintos : configuration for what to do with completed tasks has been added |
|
@janvv Thank you so much! I really appreciate the work you have put in! Much of this stuff is beyond me but may I ask for your guidance in making tweaks for myself?
|
|
:-) Funny... how just looking for a Kanban board turned into being busy working on one myself... I was already thinking of making the contents of the task cards configurable, so that you can choose yourself which properties of the tasks would be shown. I have to sort out where Outlook saves the color settings of the categories. Until I know that I can't say if it would be possible to use them. Would be a nice feature, though. The problem with the Categories is, that tasks can have more than one category. So it is not just as simple as sorting on the categories property. What we should do is get a list a categories and use that to iterate through the task using the other filters. I am not using the report, but I'll have a look at it later this week. |

@janvv thanks a lot. I will use this version in my daily "productive" environment. So far a great addition to my tool portfolio ;-) |
|
@BillyMcSkintos I added config for percentage and owner |
|
You are awesome, thank you!

@janvv What do you think about a trigger, button, slider to enable and disable the auto refresh from kanban.html? When making updates to multiple tasks it can be pretty slow to reload each time. |
|
@janvv I'm using the Kanban view since the whole day .. i love it. But from my point of view there is a topic on top of my personal wishlist: i want to exclude all tasks, that have not reached the start date; i asume that there is a statement needed in the Restrict: "" statement in the config file. Do you have any hint for me which statement is needed to hide all tasks with start date of today and before? Many thanks in advance. |

Hi, I like the progress 😊
When I set the Completed to “HIDE” I get to alert boxes popping a “hide” everytime I move to the KanBoard View

@Shrekmachine Sorry, a debug alert box sneaked into the master branch. :-) Fixed. |
|
@BillyMcSkintos |
|
Hi all, |
|
Hi thanks for the code.
I prefer the browser view, but doesnt show any of the tasks i have in my outlook
|
Hi, I know this is an old ticket that hasn't been updated lately, but is there a chance this highly improved Repo is around somewhere? @janvv's profile has no public repositories. Any input here? Thanks! |
|
He moved on to GitLab but the repository I can't find there anymore. He called it "Janban" if i remember correctly. A pity. I now us the MS Planner ;) |
|
Hi Stefan and Shrekmachine, indeed JanBan has been moved to gitlab. i copied his current code and made a fork here https://github.com/anvaro9999/outlook-taskboard. On this side you wil also find the URL to Jan van Veldhuizen's site on gitlab. He stopped developing JanBan and starten a new project JanBan-2.0, which is a remake. B.t.w. i made my own adjustments on the janban code. So if you want the original, visit janban. ;) |
|
Hmm, 10 month of no activity ☹

Moving to Gitlab and completely removing everything from Github appeared to be a bit too rigorous. I lost some fans on Github. At the other hand, I like the features I have on Gitlab. |

excellent, appreciated |
Hi there,
i'm very surprised and excited by setting up my copy of this great addon. Thanks to you guys for providing kanban in my outlook! top!
I just tried to use drag&drop in a filtered kanban. Drag&Drop is still working somehow, but it selects an task randomly. Seems that Drag&Drop ignores filtering.
Do you have the same issue with your copy in Outllook out there?
Best wishes
Harald
