Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Dashboard To-Do List

After activating the plugin, go to your Admin Dashboard. You'll see the Website To-Do List widget. Type a new item and click Add. Items are saved instantly when added. To save all changes including settings, click the Save button.

Each item in the checklist is an editable text field. Click into it and type to make changes, then click Save. To remove an item, click the ✕ button on the right. You'll be asked to confirm, and the deletion is only made permanent when you click Save. Reloading the page before saving will restore any deleted items.

Bulk Edit opens a plain textarea containing your full list, one item per line. It's useful for pasting in a list of items or reordering by cutting and pasting lines. Click Apply & close to rebuild the checklist from your edits.

In the Bulk Edit view, add the word DONE (case insensitive) at the end of any line. On the frontend, that item will display with a strikethrough but remain in your list. Use the Checklist view if you want to permanently remove completed items.

In the dashboard widget (administrators only), tick the roles you want to see the floating panel under "Show floating list on website for:". You can include specific user roles or Guests (visitors who are not logged in). Leave all boxes unticked to hide the panel from everyone.

Yes. Both the dashboard widget visibility and the frontend panel visibility pull from all registered roles on your site, including any custom roles added by plugins.

Yes. Tick the "Guests (not logged in)" option under "Show floating list on website for:" and the panel will be visible to anyone who is not logged in.

The colour picker in the dashboard widget settings (visible to administrators) lets you choose the colour of the frontend panel header.
