Goal visibilty from Projects list (web app)

I just realized it is actually quite annoying that I can't see which goal is assigned to a project without having to click into the project's detail page.

There must be an easy way to skim through the project list to see if there are any projects without a goal assigned.

Right now my mind is wasting unneedd energy wondering - "did I remember to assign a goal to each of my ~30 projects - should I really spend the next 5-10 minutes checking that again..."

Sorry I think the missing feature was already raised in http://help.doit.im/topics/288, but I can't see if this is going to be addressed in a future version or not.

Hi,
I'm also interested in this feature.
Until it is implemented, maybe you could implement this simple workaround: add a "None" goal in the goal list, as you are doing with the projects.
Best,
Eric

You may tell the workaround to NEODK in the @NEODK form and then he will get the message when he log into the Help Center.

We are now redesigning the app now and will talk this feature into consideration.

Thanks for your feedback and support.

@thewallfishgtd, Thanks for your advice, however I don't really see how this helps. I tried to create a Goal named "None" as you suggested, but no projects shows up for it.

My need is to be able to easily review which projects do not have a goal related yet, without having to click into each and every projects details.

@NEODK, @DOIT-team:

yep, i was actually asking the team to add a goal to the list, called "None", "Not assigned", or something like that, and to put all items (tasks without projects and projects) without a goal in this category.

@NOEDK: i guess that'd help solve your problem too right ?

I think what @thewallfishgtd mean is creating a goal named "None" and then manually add projects with no other goals to "None". And then you can review them. Am I right, @thewallfishgtd?

Thanks for your feedback and support.

@michelle1987 - No way to manually add a goal named None. that should be the default goal for any project! otherwise

@thewallfishgtd: Yes you are right, but if you are a GTD'er I am sure you would not accept to MANUALLY have to assign the "None" goals to all those projects right - Then the whole excercise is pretty pointless ;-)

And for your suggestion, "Goal visibilty from Projects list", we will take it into account in the future development.
