Can Members Create Categories for Organizing their To-Do tasks in BuddyPress?

Can Members Create Categories for Organizing their To-Do tasks in BuddyPress?

Yes, but not through core BuddyPress, BP User Todo List adds category-based task organization as one of its main features.

How Categories Work

Members create categories and assign tasks to them, giving each person their own organizational structure rather than one flat task list. Tasks themselves support a name, description, due date, and category assignment.

BuddyPress to-do list categories

A shortcode, [bptodo_by_category category="CATEGORY_ID"], displays tasks from a specific category anywhere on the site, a page, a template, wherever it’s needed.

Other Features Worth Knowing

Tasks can be edited, deleted, or marked complete. Due-date reminders go out via email and BuddyPress notifications, with admins able to toggle that on or off site-wide. Tasks export to CSV for backup or use elsewhere. Admins can also disable category creation entirely if a flatter task list fits the community better.
