Kirill,

If you'd prefer, feel free to delete this and reply privately.

We've created a very interesting proofing system that draws data from our various checkvist lists. It transforms the data into a final, ready-to-publish design. I'd like to make an offer and a request:

Offer: you're welcome to the code for this system if you think it might be helpful. I realize only a small % of your users are using CheckVist to create publishing projects, but with this code perhaps you could increase that %. We are happy to share.

Request: the system has a "global export" function that exports all our final-proof content to a single HTML file. It draws data from all our CheckVist pages at once (100 pages maximum). We won't do this often, but, if you want, we can commit to doing it only in low-traffic time periods. Just tell us the best time.

I ran such an export 15 minutes ago (at 10:42am EST) if you want to see what it looks like in your logs. I don't believe it will be a problem for you, but I want to make sure you're ok with it.

    Thanks, Jim!

    From the logs I see that you used calls like /checklists/NNN/tasks.json to obtain the data. I've added a cache several months ago for such requests, so it is quite OK to do this export any time (in many cases, data in the lists didn't change, so the cache is effective).

    Thanks for the offer, I'd be interested to take a look at how you implemented the publishing system. Actually, I'd also be glad to create a kind of case study, on what can be done with Checkvist. A kind of blog post, may be?

    If you're open to share your code, it may become a useful open-source project for other people.

    Thanks a lot for your offer again,

    Kirill, great. We are working like crazy for 4 more months to finish our job. When we're done (so we have some time) we will give you a "tour" and offer you the code. I won't forget!

    Jim Leff I wish you best luck with your project, and hope it will work out well. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any Checkvist-related questions/issues.

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? :)
