I'm proud to announce Vikunja 0.17.0!
|
|
It has been a while...
|
|
|
|
This release contains a whopping 251 new changes in the frontend and 164 in the api.
|
|
|
|
## Getting the new version
|
|
|
|
As usual, just grab a new release from the [downloads page](https://dl.vikunja.io) or pull the latest docker container.
|
|
|
|
## Highlights
|
|
|
|
### Frontend
|
|
|
|
The frontend was tweaked quite a lot for more consistency across all pages and a better "overall" look and feel to it.
|
|
This also meant reordering some of the settings menu and the way some things were organized.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Notifications
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to subscribe to a namespace, list or task.
|
|
Once subscribed, you will receive emails about actions someone does on a task etc.
|
|
These subscriptions bubble down so if you're subscribed to a namespace you will automatically receive notifications for all tasks on lists in that namespace.
|

|
|
|
|
### Names and passwords for link shares
|
|
|
|
Whenever you create a new link share you can now optionally set a name and a password for it.
|
|
If a password is set users will be required to enter it, providing an additional layer of security for shares.
|
|
If the link share has a name set, all actions done by that link share (like creating comments or new tasks) will show up with that name attached to it.
|
|
This is very useful for use cases where you want to give other people access to lists and let them comment but don't want to create an account for them.
|
|
|
|
Both can be used independently from each other.
|
|
|
|
## Other notable changes
|
|
|
|
* **Email Reminders**: For tasks with reminders you can now choose to get reminders per mail.
|
|
* **Repeat monthly**: Tasks now have an option to repeat each month. This enables things like "Repeat each 1st of the month".
|
|
* **Pagination Kanban**: The kanban board now does not load all tasks at once but only 20 at once. Endless scrolling ensures you get to see all of your tasks
|
|
* **Filters for Kanban**: Related to the pagination - you can now apply all the usual filters to the tasks on a kanban board.
|
|
* **Removing list backgrounds**: You can now remove a previously set list background. It does not matter if it was set through unsplash or uploaded.
