Statuses and limits
Statuses are the stages a task moves through, like To-Do, In Progress and Done. Each one can have a color, a task limit and a type.
Board Settings01Open your statuses#
- Click your board's name at the top left.
- Pick Board Settings.
- Open the Statuses tab.
Changes save as you make them.
02Order#
Top to bottom in the list is left to right on the board. Drag a row by its handle to reorder. The Tasks Flow at the top shows the result.
03What each status has#
| Title | The name on the column and the task, like Review. |
| Color | Used on the status chip and the column. |
| Max tasks | A limit for the column. The New task button shows the count against it, like 3/4, and turns orange when the column is over. |
| Status type | None, Initial, In-progress or Done. It tells Taskift where a task starts and when it counts as finished. |
Good to know In Focus mode the Initial status is always the first column and Done is always the last.
04Add or remove a status#
Click + Add Status for a new one. To remove a status that still has tasks, Taskift asks where to move them first.
