Checkvist story

Read-only publishing and HTML support

Disclaimer: this is not a fools day issue. This is a normal, ordinary update of the server. No surprises. Here’s what kept us busy:

• Read-only publishing of your checklists/outlines (suggestion)

To share your outlines with anyone on the web, press “Publish” button in the Share dialog, then copy the URL and send it to your boss, friends or put it on your blog. The readers cannot make changes to it, but are able to copy or export your outline (useful if you want to share something other people can utilize in their work).

If you or your co-workers make changes to that outline, they’ll be immediately visible to the public. To make the outline private again, simply click Un-publish in the same dialog panel.

• Support HTML in tasks and comments (thanks joebadmo for suggestion)
• Fix problem for multi-line task rendering in preliminary mobile version of Checkvist + add support for HTML as well (thanks Serge Beauregard for this report and for many others)
• IE8 support, including option to add numbering to outline (see view options in toolbar)
• Allow to send a copy of Checkvist invitation to self when inviting people
• More fixes and improvements. Among them a fix for the bug when creating a checklist in Safari 3.1.2 or AJAX update of sharing information.

Enjoy!
