Comment on Browse projects using the tag browser by Ryo

Ryo — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:22:14 +0000

To all,
Sorry for the confusion. We removed the name of the feature starting from Pagico v4, but the feature itself (tag browser) remains. Please refer to the Notes section in the article above for detailed explanation on this.

Thank you!

Comment on Moving things among projects and profiles by Robert George

Robert George — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 18:16:01 +0000

I did find the way to move lists but must move each element of the project rather than merge.

Robert George — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 18:08:05 +0000

Occasionally, I have created two projects that were similar and realized that one would have been sufficient. Would be nice to be able to move task lists from one project to another or even to merge two projects such as these.
I am learning and enjoying the program thusfar.

Comment on Easier ways to enter dates and times by Marco

Marco — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 16:00:46 +0000

Hi,

is it possible to create a task from an email, i got via Mail OS X?

Most tasks I create are based on recieved Mails. Via link I can find them faster, without searching with spotlight or the apple mail search?

The same question is concerning the ipad app…

Thanks a lot!

Comment on Smart Grouping: Organize Contacts in Groups, automatically by Nick

Nick — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 19:13:09 +0000

Is it possible to change the sort order inside the smart groups. Currently it seems that it follows more or less the order of the input. I would like to see an alphabetical order or even to deal with numbers (e.g. years).

Thanks a lot,

Nick

I’m using the Pagico v5. The linking to dropped file doesn’t seem to be working. I’m holding ctrl while dragging and dropping the file and it’s always copied to the database. I’m running Windows 7 32bit.

Also agree with Rick’s comments.

Best,

Comment on Import contacts from Address Book by ozpritcha

ozpritcha — Sun, 25 Sep 2011 22:03:13 +0000

Just trying to work out why you don’t just use address book contacts instead of having to import them.
As soon as I import, I end up with duplicate data (massive no, no) and I have lost all of the functionality of syncing my contact data between devices.

My contacts are one area that I currently manage to keep in good order, but I am looking for a way to add more value to the information (metadata, link to projects, status, etc) Pagico would be a great way to do that, except that it doesn’t talk to my current list of contacts.

Maybe I’m missing something….
Any thoughts?

Comment on Create new documents in projects and contact profiles by Rand Valentine

Nice tutorial on contacts. I have a request. It would be nice to be able to right click on a contact email and be able to copy it to the the clipboard. Already, you can double-click on the contact to create a new email in your email app, but I often want to send the same email to more than one contact, and it would be better to be able to just grab (via clipboard) each email and paste it into a new email in Outlook.

Comment on Export Schedule Information to iCal (or any compatible application) by Ryo

Ryo — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 20:29:42 +0000

@Alfred,
The iCal feed doesn’t work on your computer? Would you mind sending us an email with detailed info? That way we can do some tests. So far this feature has been working fine on our ends, as well as most of the users. So it would be great if you could let us know more about the issue you’re experiencing.

As far as iCal across databases, yes, that’s not supported at this moment. We’ll see if we could implement a similar solution in the near future.

Thanks!

Comment on Export Schedule Information to iCal (or any compatible application) by Alfred Fazio

Alfred Fazio — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 20:24:54 +0000

Note that this feature does not work across multiple databases. Only the tasks for the currently selected database in Pagico will show up in iCal (or any calendar application.)

This feature is also not likely to ever work, considering that this application is basically a frontend to a PHP website running locally on your machine. The PHP website utilizes the current database to export the events to iCal.

Would’ve been nice if this was supported, as I would then be able to keep my tasks sync’ed up with my iPhone, etc.

One possible workaround for the developers would be to allow multiple databases to be stored in the same file, using some additional foreign keys to separate concerns. This would allow me to keep completely different concerns (personal, work, side business, etc.) in the same file, and that way the PHP scripts would be able to iterate over each database to provide all tasks to iCal.

Just my 2 cents

Comment on Implementing GTD in Pagico by Mark Duffield

Mark Duffield — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 16:57:22 +0000

I have been using Pagico for several weeks now. I loosely follow a GTD process, and have been using a “List” in the Inbox to capture tasks that need to be completed. When I go back to the Inbox to sort these tasks into their correct project, I find that I can’t move individual items in a List. I can easily move entire lists or text boxes into projects (and that works very well).

What is the recommended way to capture individual tasks into the inbox and then process them into projects at a later time?

Thanks,
Mark

Comment on Making Pagico compatible with 64-bit Ubuntu by Iago Mosqueira

Iago Mosqueira — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 09:32:29 +0000

The problem I am finding is that some libraries, like libenchant, need to be in boith 32 and 64 bit versions: 32 for Pagico, 64 for everything else. But Pagico finds the 64 bit ine at /usr/lib and not the 32 bit version at /usr/lib32. How can Pagico be forced to look for libraries in the right place?

Comment on Export Schedule Information to iCal (or any compatible application) by Ryo

Ryo — Mon, 17 Jan 2011 02:27:58 +0000

@Ryan,

Those are very good points. The iCal feed should work with the latest iCal. But please send us an email so we could work to get this working on your side.

In terms of the syncing capability, we’re always working on this front, and we will for sure deliver more improvements in the near future.

Thanks!

Comment on Export Schedule Information to iCal (or any compatible application) by Ryan

Ryan — Mon, 17 Jan 2011 02:20:59 +0000

Hello,

I’m only doing the trial of Pagico so I’m new to the program but had an issue getting the iCal export to work. I go to preferences and click on “Your schedule in ICal format” but nothing happens (no windows, literally nothing). I have mobileme so have the latest version of the calendar – is it possible that Pagico is not compatible with the latest iCal released a few months ago?
So far I’m enjoying the program and trying to see if it will fit my organizational needs. Would have liked to see more of a “sync” capability with the iCal and Address book as opposed to one way importing/exporting. It feels a bit like I have to update information in two places now. Know what I mean?

Thanks, Ryan

Comment on Inserting Email messages by Ryo

@Mike,

Many thanks for the comment. We’ll for sure enhance the Pagico Helper so that we could have something similar to the global shortcut feature that Things has.

Thanks again!

Comment on Inserting Email messages by Mike H

Mike H — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 14:55:15 +0000

I agree with Marc 100%. However I would go even one step further. To explain: the thing that keeps me using “Things” is a global command-key sequence that adds WHATEVER I have selected into the database – file, note, text, url, or (MOST IMPORTANTLY) email. IF Pagico had this feature I would give it a solid look.

Thanks again for mentioning this!

Comment on Making Pagico compatible with 64-bit Ubuntu by endle

endle — Sun, 14 Nov 2010 20:24:31 +0000

the syntax is slightly off on the line:
sudo -i dpkg -i –force-architecture

it should be:
sudo dpkg -i –force-architecture

It looks like it might have been typed in correctly, but the page is rendering the dash in front of force as a single dash, wich will throw errors…two dashes will do it.

Comment on Create new documents in projects and contact profiles by Ryo

@Tami,
Um I assume you’re referring to creating folders in projects, and drop files into that folder? To do so, first create a folder in a project, and double-click on the folder to open it up (in Finder on Mac, or explorer on Windows). Then, drag files into the file manager window.

Hope this helps!

@Shane,
The shortcut settings are database-specific. So you’ll have to configure for each one of your databases. The good thing is, you’ll only need to do this once for each db.

Comment on Import contacts from Address Book by Scriptdog

Scriptdog — Tue, 18 May 2010 04:24:57 +0000

You have a message that shows up in the contact when it is an empty profile and it has a grammatical error. You have: You can store information (notes, tasks, files) regarding to this person or organization.

It could be worded better, perhaps as “in regard” to this person… etc.

There are typos in other places and as I am just now trying it out, I’m fearful typos on the surface might indicate other more structurally important lapses.

An update to my earlier note here – the synchronization works indeed – it just took a while to get there even when i did a manual refresh in ICal. The tasks ended up in my calender as 2hrs task – even though i specified 1hrs or 30mins – why is that ?

As far as both of your feature requests, the good news is that they’re all planned and on our roadmap. The bad news? Well, technically it’s not bad at all, but just that you need to wait for a few more months (those are scheduled with our upcoming major update).

Hi All,

It is an absolute pleasure having pagico – especially the schedule flowchart is great. Two things I lack here are:
1. The possibility to drag the time line further into the future(right now 2 weeks) , when I am on projects usually they are longer into the future.
2. Filter/select option where by I could select the projects that I want to see – perhaps with an expand/collapse button

Comment on Setting up tasks (todo lists) in projects by Ryo

Ryo — Sun, 09 May 2010 16:09:35 +0000

@Ian,
It’s very easy to associate / assign a task (from a project) with a contact. But this is a great question, and we’ll for sure write up an article for just this.

In short, in a project you need to write a task, with an inline-link pointing to a contact profile. By doing so, the task will show up in the “References” area in the corresponding contact.

For more information on this, simply do a search on this site for “References”.

Hope this helps!

Am I missing something here or is there no way to assign a project task to a contact? I see that I can take a task OUT of a project and make it private to a contact but surely I need to know WHO is responsible for the tasks in my project..?

I am feeling as though I am missing something very fundamental here ..?

Hi,

I’m evaluating your product. Thank you for the tutorials.

There is a spelling error on this page, the second time you spell “novel” you spell it “noval”. I thought you’d want to know.

Also, from my quick review, I thought you deprecated the “quicknotes” feature and the mobile bit that you mention above.

Comment on Inserting documents, images, and other files into projects by Rick

Thanks, Ryo. For number 2, the “zero option” if you want to avoid clutter in the Pagico window might be a menu command (perhaps in File-New), which would allow people to use a keyboard shortcut. But perhaps the most obvious is to use the Add menu: Text Paragraph, List, Choose File.

Comment on Inserting documents, images, and other files into projects by Ryo

Ryo — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 19:45:33 +0000

Hi Rick,
@1: That makes sense. I’ll see what we can do in the near future.
@2: It’s actually very easy to implement on a programming standpoint. And probably you didn’t know that we actually removed this feature to reduce interface clutters. But again, it is definitely more convenient in some occasions. And I’ll see if we can find a perfect way to add this feature without making the UI too heavy or less efficient.

Thanks again for your ideas!!
