Option to group todos by page title

Open clscott opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Thanks for this plugin, it is very handy.

I will keep a file per project with notes and todos. I would like to be able to see my todos organized by project. e.g.

Instead of this:

  • [ ] write proposal
  • [ ] Do something
  • [ ] Do another thing
  • [ ] Something else you must do
  • [ ] And do it again
  • [ ] write proposal
  • [ ] Track down a thing
  • [ ] Followup on another thing
  • [ ] Invent something new

It would be helpful to see this like to see this:

Project Alpha

  • [ ] write proposal
  • [ ] Do something
  • [ ] Do another thing
  • [ ] Something else you must do
  • [ ] And do it again

Project Beta

  • [ ] write proposal
  • [ ] Track down a thing
  • [ ] Followup on another thing
  • [ ] Invent something new

Hey @clscott, thanks for your report. This is definitely something I would be interested in adding.

There are some questions around the feature I'm still thinking about. Maybe you have some thoughts on them too?

  • Would you always want to have your tasks grouped by file, or would you want to be able to toggle this on and off in the UI (instead of one-time in settings)?
  • For users that use the daily notes plugin: should we group all tasks in a daily notes file in 1 group ("Daily notes") or should they be split out across separate notes?

As a user of Daily Notes, I would appreciate very much a creation of a group "Daily Notes" with the multiple todos grouped by title (wich in this case is a date)

Count me in on this one! I have a note created by each project I'm working on and I add to-dos on each note. When the to-dos are all together in the plugin panel I can't tell which to-do is from which project until I go to the note using the arrow. Having a title of the note between to-dos would be a huge time saver.
