Adding icon to quickly create todo in WYSIWYG editor view

[advait404]

Currently, there is no way to add any TODOs while in the WYSIWYG editor mode. Adding a button in the icon bar to create one would be very helpful. I mostly use this view to write my notes, and must switch to the markdown viewer to add the todo.

Hi @advait404 You can create TODOS in the editor view just the same as in the markdown view. By default, a TODO is a checkbox followed by a category that begins with @. You press this button to create a checkbox. I've tested this in the WYSIWYG editor and it works just as well there as in the markdown editor.

If I misunderstood your issue please feel free to and some clarification and I can maybe re-open this.

I was using it in the Link Style instead of the Confluence Style, and after switching back it is a lot more convenient now. Though, I would still prefer to have a way of generating a todo with a single click. Maybe it can be further customized to have a preassigned date (like 7 days after current date) and it can change the inserted todo format based on the selected style, so it doesn't need to be remembered. This would also be really useful for the casual users, since they most likely won't remember the formats to create the todos.

Of course, I completely understand if this is out of scope for the project. I would have tried doing it myself, but I barely have much coding experience. Regardless, thanks a lot for this extension, it's been really useful for keeping track of my dozens of notes.

You make a good point, I'll leave this open as a feature request. I have no intention of implementing it (this plugin suites my needs).
