I can see from https://checkvist.com/auth/help that I am supposed to be able to make a public read-only list with my free account via clicking share then make public. ("If you have a free account, you can choose to make a list public to make it avaiilable for larger audience in the "read-only" mode.")  I can see lists I've shared that way in the past still present, but not on other lists. e.g. from my list page, I check a list, click share, and see 'this list is public (read-only access)'. Clicking on that shows me the embedding code to use. What has happened / where is this now?

Note: I am NOT INTERESTED in what I see by clicking 'shared', 'share list by link' then 'invite people as readers (available fo rCheckvist Pro accounts)'.  Which is what I get with a different list (check, then click share). Generate link there produces a link that requires my reader to log in to checkvist, unlike the embedded version where the list just comes up - no registration or log in required.

Where has this embedding feature gone?
(URLs, please?)

    D'OH! Never mind ... I wasn't the list owner.

    Suggestion: On the list page, sharing is noted by 'shared (you + #). That a list is shared is self-evident by the presence of the '(you +#)'. Could the 'shared' be changed to 'owner' when that is true? It might make it more self-evident (a la slap upside the head) that not being the owner one shouldn't try to change the sharing settings.

    Or, perhaps, have 'make public' always present but greyed out if not the list owner. And/Or append a note to the grey, e.g. Not list owner, or, only the list owner can make public.

    Hello,

       The feature is still available as it was before. The only possible reason for this feature unavailability could be that you're not the owner of the list. Only list owner can make it public. List owner can transfer the ownership to another person, if needed.
      If this is not your case, please send us e-mail to kirsa@checkvist.com with your list details - we'll take a look.

      Hope, this helps,
      KIR

    Bee esS Thanks, these are good points! We will try to improve interface there.

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...

Hello friends

Hello friends, We are considering to change behaviour of move up/down command using ctrl+arrows for lists with hierarchy. The new approach is available on our beta site, https://beta.checkvist.com . Could you please try it out and tell us what you think? Thanks! https://beta.checkvist.com

Hello friends!

Hello friends! I'd like to ask for your opinion regarding multi-line text editing. This suggestion comes from one of our Russian-speaking customers Dolina Zamkova so here is a translated abstract of our email conversation. Current problem: When you write multi-line text, you must press 'Shift-Enter' first, then use 'Enter' to start a new line, then 'Ctrl-Enter' to submit the text. Wouldn't it be easier to have a setting that will allow using Enter to always write multi-line texts, and always submit on 'Ctrl-Enter', like you do it in text messengers? So we could add a new account-wide setting, on the Settings page: () Finish editing by pressing 'Ctrl-Enter' (convenient for multi-line text) What do you think? Do you write multi-line texts in Checkvist at all? Other thoughts of how we could make it better? :)
