    I went away from Todoist but soon came back. It is simple and does precisely what I need it to do.

    Just came to say that your vlogs look really sharp! Like literally, but also just looking good in general. Better than most content I see on UA-cam! We have a lot of common threads, productivity, photography, so I'm glad I stumbled on your channel.

    Such a useful video! I understand now so much better how I can use the software to the maximum, some things I would have never thought of on my own, thanks a lot for putting in the time to do the tutorial.

    Hey Jerad! Great video. I'm coming to this after watching the Zapier Notion integration video. I'm using sections and setting up the zap. I've got it to the point where it works for projects with tasks coming into Notion, but Zapier doesn't seem to recognize sections (so I may have to go back to making subprojects underneath projects). Any thoughts on how to solve?

    Jarad, Great video... Do you know if there is a way make the due date for a sub-task be be indexed-off of the due date of the "parent"-task? In other words, if a task is due 3 weeks before the parent-task's due date, can that sub-task's due date (and all of the other sub-tasks due dates) auto-fill based on the parent-task's due date?
    I'm trying to use it as an event planning template, and the due dates for everything is based off of the event date. So I want the tasks (or sub-tasks possibly?) to be auto-filled based on the overall event date). Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

    Just started using this
    I like the desk top feature
    Very much like Wonder-list.
    But they went out of business
    Thanks for the overview.
    It seems to me like you are talking to a mass of people that know how to do most of the things you are talking about.
    I need step by step instruction
    For example:
    Filters I would like all my completed tasks to land on just one board. Not sure how to do that
    Do you send all your emails to Todoist or just EM that have tasks with in them? That only works with Spark or can I use my Reg email
    Can I attach files to a task?
    Step by step is really what I need

    Hey Jarred, great video, helps me understand some of the great features. Question: what about using the App to manage my teams project and TODO lists ? Would it be smarter to use Projects, Filters, labels to assign tasks...... Still new to this topic but so far I like the App. Whats your recommendation. all my team member have Premium version.

    • @jeradhill
      @jeradhill  2 роки тому

      Hi, you probably created your inbox as a database and didn't create a page first. You first need to create a page and then add the inbox as a database within the page. I have a new tutorial on this topic coming up soon on my other channel where I have started posting Notion videos: ua-cam.com/channels/U-EHRBCpm0j63iKIghrUUg.html

  • @frankvet1
    @frankvet1 11 місяців тому

    Thanks for an awesome channel. For me at least, Task Management is great but project are surprisingly limited! I'm strongly considering going back to apple reminders + Clickup for project management. For example, there is no setting to toggle "show completed tasks" in the settings? Totally baffling not to include this simple feature. To create "un-completable tasks" to help track projects is a work around that should have been unnecessary from day one. Thanks again.

    • @jeradhill
