Topic: How are you using Backpack? / GTD - Seeing all your next actions in backpack!

I posted a feature request: http://forum.37signals.com/backpack/forums/18/topics/4199 to get an open task query.

Topic: Feature Requests / Open tasks query

I use Backpack, as a lot of other people, to organize projects. I post files, contacts and tasks in lists for each project on a separate page.

This worked great when I had a few projects. Now I have 25 projects (and growing), most of them with tasks for each day. Because of this it would be helpful to have a query that gathers all open tasks and posts them in a list that I can use to go by each task I have to do.

A great way to do this would be pagename – tasksdescription in a list with different sorting options like, by creation date or page name. But at this time any gathering of tasks will do.

As this would greatly improve my productivity its something I’d love to see in backpack.

YinHong, thanks for your tip.

Unfortunately it does not work for me. I’ll post a feature request for showing all open actions.

I like GTD and I like backpack so I love to ocmbine the two. I have separate project pages, so getting all on one page by searching a searchstring sounded good.

I prefixed all individual actions with “NXAC”. Great. Now when I search it still doenst give me all my next actions… I get bits of the actions and not all of them.

Topic: Feature Requests / files in multiple columns

I agree, I also have a lot of files I store on Backpack. The gallery view would work great.
