It is in staff testing mode right now. To release even in the beta we also need to make sure the mobile and Gmail./Oulook integrations also support custom statuses.

We will share implementation details for those who is interested to learn more and provide feedback early on.

Related to it
- table view with the ability to select columns including custom fields for tasks is in staff testing mode right now
- Kanban view with the ability to select what you want to use as columns – progress statuses, assignees, priorities, or even start/due dates
- flexible grouping – you will be able to group not only by task list but also be assigned to, priority, assigned to, etc. In also includes no grouping option allowing to sort tasks in a project or across projects in a single list. This function will initially be released in the List, Kanban and Table views (with later release on the Gantt view)

Hi All,

Hi All,

We think that each task can be only in progress, not in progress or completed but true – not in progress task can have a clarification sub-status like ‘waiting for a feedback’ or ‘postponed’ and we do consider adding sub-statuses in the future. Things like ‘Testing’, ‘Review’ – task lists can be used to handle. A task in ‘Testing’ task list will still be in progress, not started or completed because if you set it as status you will never know if actual testing phase not started, in progress or completed. To handle this in Kanban view we plan to allow to switch Kanban view to show columns as task lists in addition to by status available now. Hope it helps what is planned and what to expect.

Summary:
- add substatuses (allow to edit them)
- Kanban columns either per status+sub-status or task list

Please email your Freedcamp account email if you want to be invited to internal Freedcamp discussion to define a roadmap for this feature in Freedcamp and work with the Freedcamp team.

Cheers,
Igor

Hi All,

Just an update that we start work on Custom Fields feature which can workaround more statuses problem until this is fully supported.

You will be able to create custom field ’Substatus", for example, add new statuses to it and set it on your task and use filters we already have to filter by substatus.

You will not see more than 3 columns in Kanban view with this approach.

Hi All,

If we add separate statuses – we will have to redo a LOT – Kanban to support 6-8 columns, List view etc etc.

What if we will do the same UserVoice does – https://www.dropbox.com/s/4dtvporv9mlvgu9/multiple%20statuses.png?dl=0
we will keep 3 statuses – No Progress, Doing, Done and allow you guys to create 2-5 sub-statuses.

No Progress (category not selectable)
—In Planning
—In Review
—Ready to start

Doing (category not selectable)
—In Progress
—Delayed
—Blocked
—Pending

Done (category not selectable)
—Cancelled
—Duplicate
—Completed
—In Review

So we stay in 3 main statuses but give you options to decide if ‘Delayed; is in ’Doing’ category for you or in ‘No Progress’.

As we want to keep things simple – this will be Task Status extension which you will have to add from Marketplace to all or some projects in your account.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Igor

Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone!

After having a Skype conversation with Dan I decided to update status here:

— if we will find a sponsor for this particular feature set – we will add ‘Custom status’ module which will allow to add extra 5 statuses and have up to 8 column in Kanban.

— if we will not find a sponsor we will most likely keep 3 main statuses and allow extra sub-statuses to be added with options to filter by status and sub-status. This is because it will take much less time and will not require to fix upcoming iPhone app.

As you know we also have Kanban view in Freedcamp and we would really like to keep it 3 columns (unlike Trello where you can create 20 columns naming each with a different status).

What will you say if we will keep 3 statuses as now

No Progress
In Progress
Completed

and allow you to add sub-statuses

No Progress/Delayed
No Progress/On Hold
In Progress/Testing
In Progress/Pending Response
Completed/Duplicate
Completed/Cancelled

What do you think about this?

Igor
