Something I keep coming up with on my workflow:

1) I review a list and have questions about a few items on it that are assigned to someone else
2) I email people that the tasks are assigned to the questions outside of checkvist

It would be nice (but may go outside of your design/desire for simplicity) to ask people these questions from within checkvist in a way that I can make sure they are followed up with or answered. This way I can search for unanswered questions and people can get updates in email with my questions and can easily answer them in checkvist themselves.

Does that make sense? Have you thought of this before?

    A way to tag users in notes? With addition of status open or closed tag?

    Actually, when an assigned task is changed by a non-assignee, Checkvist sends a corresponding notification to the assignee (within 5-10 minutes).

    So you can simply add a note to the list item you have a question about.

    Also, Checkvist sends the notification when any sub-item of the assigned item is changed.

    For your scenario, you can add a sub-item "Discussion" for the assigned task, and add notes to this subitem. But, to get notified about changes in this Discussion, you should assign it to yourself (or watch all changes in the list, globally).

    Would it work for you?

    Yeah I rarely use tags at all, so a combination of a tag and a note would probably do it. Thanks for the ideas...I'm probably missing out by not using the tags enough.

Hello friends

Hello friends, Recently we've got a request to introduce a shortcut to move items to the first/last position on the current level of hierarchy: https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/15758854-shortcut-to-send-an-item-at-the-top-of-the-current And this bring me to a thought to use the current shortcut (Ctrl+Home/Ctrl+End) for this purpose. But with an extension - if an item is already on the top position on the current hierarchy level, Ctrl+Home would move item one level up (and put it at the beginning of this level). This will break the current behaviour (moving item to the beginning of the list), but probably will make this shortcut more useful. What do you think? https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/15758854-shortcut-to-send-an-item-at-the-top-of-the-current

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.  What I feel is missing is more use cases.  How are people using Checkvist?  What are some recommend workflows?  How many lists do you have? User Stories will not only help those of use already using Checkvist to be more effective, but attract more non-technical customers. I like to keep my lists at a minimum.  I only split out for sharing but I'd prefer not to. Here are my lists: * Inbox:  This is where zapier based integrations go.  I have Jira tickets and emails tagged with "!action" going to list which I process daily. * The List:  This is my primary list.  Everything is here.  I use sub-nodes for different areas. * Honey Do:  This is the list my wife and I share to make sure we know what we both want done around the house. * "Client Project" - I have a few Lists I share with clients (Free lance web developer). I"m looking to write a more detailed blog post. How are your l
