Synchronicity of the Status of a Task from MeisterTask to MeisterNote

Is it possible to see whether a task is done that is linked from MeisterNote to MeisterTask?

For example, if I create a task from MeisterNote into MeisterTask, and I later complete the task in MeisterTask (mark it complete, mark it archived), there is no indicator back in MeisterNote that the task is done.

    hey @Chace Campbell ,

    I feel your pain, many of us (me included) use MeisterNote as an overview. So having a quick overview of the next steps and tasks is really crucial for me as well.

    I know that the team is working on revamping the big block (as depicted in option 2 above) to a much(!) sleeker and smaller version. That will help tremendously in keeping a good overview in the project. And it will eliminate the need to click off tasks (option 1) AND you will see the status right away 😊

    I have already seen the mock-up of the design. It is currently being implemented by our devs team. So the plan is not only in motion, the update is coming in the near future! 😎

    Hi @Chace Campbell ,

    that is a good question. At the moment, there are two ways to show tasks in MeisterNote.

    The small integration on the left-hand side does not show any progress at the moment. It's just a quick link. You need to open the pop-up to see more information.

    If you would like any indicator, then you could go with two approaches:

    1. Add a checklist and tick it manually.

    2. Or add the task as a content block.

    Let me know what you think 😊

    Thank you for the answer. Is there is a plan for the completed task to be seen back in MesiterNote automatically, similar to MindMeister?

    We use MeisterNote as an overview of a project, so keeping it streamlined is key. Having to manually click off tasks (option 1) creates an extra step and creates manual error of what has been done and what hasn’t. Imbedding the task (option 2) defeats the streamline overview.
