Is feature active/wanted - Delay project?

Post by gordonisnz »

Hello.

I'm wondering if this feature is already active (I cant find it).. and if not, would it be of interest to add to the to-do list...


Basically, some actions require / want us to wait a period.

IE, I action some task today, & the next task shouldn't be done before next week..

So, I update my notes in BT, & tell bugtracker to wait a week..

1) When I view all my tasks, the item I just updated will NOT appear ..

but

2) I can press a separate option in the search to include the delayed tasks, and thena ll my tasks / activities will be shown...


Does this make sense ? / would it be useful, & worth adding to the feature request for future BT ?

Ps - if it is implemented - Make it able to alter how many days (not set weeks..)

IE, delay for 1 day, 5 days, 13 days, delay for 34 days etc..

This is not standard available. You could implement the task plugin and use that to control various actions within an issue. :D This plugin does not (yet) support start dates though. :(

Could it be added in future.. - would it be useful ?


If not 'hidden' - maybe a different colour ?

No worries - Just an idea
