Task list improvement

Jan 7, 2010 11:25am

We had a suggestion from @johnwlong awhile back to improve the task list page by taking into account newlines. Previously, the task list simply showed the first X characters of the task. Now, it shows the first X characters of the first line of the task. This seems to really simplify...

Bye bye user filtering

Oct 16, 2009 1:39pm

Sometimes the best thing the makers of a website can do is remove a feature. It’s certainly uncommon in this age of software bloat and it can be painful if some of your customers have grown accustomed to the feature. The pain, though, is often worth it because it helps to...

Task Sorting Just Got Better

Jul 16, 2009 9:21am

The project managers out there will certainly appreciate the improvements we’ve made to task sorting. Previously, the task sort order was based on the category *and* the user. So each user could see the order of their tasks for a particular category. Now, it’s only based on the category. This allows...

We now have the ability to filter the task list by user. This cuts down on the noise and helps you to only look at the stuff that really matters....

File Attachment Improvements

Jul 13, 2009 4:17pm

When we originally added the ability to attach files in No Kahuna, we chose to make it a separate event, it’s own thing on a task or message. We were thinking that this made things simpler. The reality is that it confused many customers because they’re accustomed to attaching files to...

A handy little feature went out last week - we now have events for when project members become subscribed/unsubscribed to tasks and messages. It’s nice to know when folks started listening in on the conversation....

Message subjects

Apr 20, 2009 11:07am

Most ticketing/issue tracking systems force users to specify a title and a body for a given task. For most tasks though, we find that having a title is unnecessary and often annoying. Therefore, No Kahuna doesn’t have task titles. It’s an example of how we’re trying to simplify things and...

New pricing for No Kahuna

Mar 18, 2009 3:54pm

We have been rolling out a ton of new features and improvements over the last weeks. One such update is a much simplified pricing: No Kahuna projects can be either public or private. Public projects are free and you can have as many as you like. For private projects you need...

API support to see your projects

Jan 29, 2009 12:05pm

Today we heard a question from customer: I have an API question. How do you get the projects in an account? … This would be a really cool feature. We agree! This is a feature that’s been on our list and we had planned on adding support for it next week. We...

Hide inactive projects

Jan 23, 2009 12:39pm

Today a customer told us that he found it hard to quickly select projects from his ever growing list and that it would be nice to somehow hide inactive projects from the interface. We liked the request so much, we thought we’d do something about it right away. So if you...

Coming Soon - Messages

Jan 13, 2009 12:53pm

When people collaborate on a project, two forms of communication generally happen - actionable and non-actionable. Actionable communication occurs for things someone is responsible for, for things which are eventually marked as done. Up until now, No Kahuna has been quite focused on the actionable items for your projects. Soon...

Some Performance Improvements

Dec 22, 2008 2:55pm

I’ve been noticing that the site hasn’t seemed quite as responsive as it once was. Up until this point, we have spent basically zero time thinking about performance and how to make the site faster. Today I started thinking about some possibilities. I considered various caching options and then decided...

No Kahuna API

Dec 22, 2008 9:26am

We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve started releasing parts of the No Kahuna API to allow developers to programatically interact with No Kahuna. We can’t wait to see how folks start using it. We’re still adding additional API calls. If you contact us with your needs, it will help us prioritize the next steps...

You can now attach files up to 50 MB each to a task. We still like using skitch for sharing screenshots but that is mac only and occasionally work requires more than just sharing screenshots :)...

Dec 8, 2008 5:52am

Leading up to the dashboard release we have also improved the way activity is presented on No Kahuna. Event lists are now more distinct from task lists and the information is much easier to parse. They are also better integrated into the various contexts on the site. Old vs New: ...

The new dashboard lets you quickly see what happens across all your projects and teams. Some projects need a lot of your attention, some need it only once a week. You may work with people in different time zones or just across the hall. The new dashboard shows you the projects with...
