A simple way to create a new list and a handful of fixes

When I spoke last time of sharing useful how-tos, I should have begun with ll - our favourite shortcut for browsing all lists.

Press ll on any page and start typing to find a list quickly. Press Enter to open that list.

Now there’s a little extension: you can type a new list name, and then press Enter to create a new list:

But it’s not the only place where you can use it.

When you want to to move a task or a node to another list, press mm (easy mnemonic for mmove). In the same pop-up select the list you want to move a task to. If you’d like to move it to a new list - just type the new list name into the textfield, and press Enter.

It’s a small thing, but it can make life’s easier when working with a lot of lists. Hope, you’ll like it, too.

Among other things, we’ve updated server with a handful of bugfixes:

• Improved email notifications for assigned tasks. Improvements include better text, readability, better action merge (less spam, more value in each email).
• Improved calculation for the width of the editing box (thanks @Neil)
• Fixed a bug with the filter on the Due page (thanks @Yura)
• Added support for ‘tues’ in smart syntax for Tuesday in addition to ‘tue’.
• Option “Close parent task when the last child is closed” didn’t work for Checkvist mobile UI - fixed
• Fixed a bug when “reset filter” shortcut didn’t work in some situations

Many thanks to all people who help us making the tool better!
