FAQ
Can I manage the permissions of the board and its tasks? No, the current version of the plugin gives the same permissions to all users that are able to access the location (group, post, page) of the board. Permission management will come in a future version.
Can I have multiple boards in the same Page, Post, BuddyPress Group ? No, the current version of the plugin only supports one board per Page, Post, BuddyPress Group. If you add multiple times the [budytask] shortcode to a Page or Post the same board will be displayed.
What happens when the due day of a task expires ? Nothing, at the moment it is just a visual reminder. But that will change in the near future!
Can I have more the four columns or lanes ? No, the current version only supports four lanes, but you can change their default names by clicking on them. Things may change in the future!
