4.2.1.3 Add a checklist to a task template

Go to Setup → Dropdowns → Project task templates, open a template and choose its Checklist tab. Add the items the task should always start with. A task created on the board from this template (Create from a template) gets these items as its checklist. Maintaining these items needs the Checklist template item rights on the profile.

4.2.2 Configuring Kanban notifications

The plugin's notifications are ordinary GLPI notifications, created active when the plugin is installed. The events and the extra recipients they offer are listed in 3.3 Notifications.

4.2.2.1 Find the plugin's notifications

Go to Setup → Notifications → Notifications and search on the item type Kanban. The seven events of the plugin are listed; each can be edited, switched off or given other recipients like any GLPI notification.

4.2.2.2 Choose who is notified

Open a notification and choose its Recipients tab. Besides GLPI's own recipients, the list offers the project task team, the project team's groups, contacts and suppliers, and the project manager. On install, every event notifies only the Manager.
