Topic: Troubleshooting & Bug Reports / Lightbox log-in

going back to this one, I have actually figured I haven’t articulated it clearly.

how about a ‘remember my password’ functionality? I visit this site quite often (as you could imagine for time-keeping, etc) so it would be nice if you could check the box and gain instant access to the website. Currently, Firefox does remember my password/username but I still have to type it in to cue it up and press login.

So are others experiencing this? or does Firefox let you in without having to deal with the login page at all?

thanks.

Topic: Feature Requests / Larger (workable) editable areas

Currently when you do an estimate you get an editable text box that is very small (140 high x 270 wide)

This would be nice if it were quite large where you could see past a few line of what you are currently working on. With the ‘overlay editing’ functionality, you can’t actually see what you might be updating because 1) the text box is too small and you can only see a few lines at a time or 2) the black out pop up style is covering up your estimate.

Possible solutions?
- inline editing (so I can still see my estimate)
- larger editable area

My current solution is to type it out in any text editor and then input afterwards. This still doesn’t work well when I need to do small, quick edits.

thanks

Topic: Troubleshooting & Bug Reports / Record a Payment

Hi, I have been looking around for this info, so if you can answer or point me in the right direction?

“Record a payment” from your outstanding invoices. I just got paid, pressed this and then it offers me two more empty form inputs re: amount.

First. “Amount” – why is this not prefilled? is there a reason I would change the amount?

Second. “Amount to apply” – what is this doing?

So I filled the same amount in for each and now I am sniffing around trying to figure out what it’s done to my records, etc.

thanks, scott

cool, thanks for that. haven’t had time to start getting familiar with the liquid syntax and get my hands dirty. but if I could set up a hack and not have to worry from then on it would be something to look into.

cheers

Topic: Feature Requests / Group mulitple projects in invoice

great idea, it’s kind of like what I suggested before earlier today. My only difference would be a toggle to say “leave off total” as then you could use this exact template for both of those functionalities discussed on the board today.

Topic: Feature Requests / Inline reorder functionality

The sorting row feature has potential, but I find the AJAX style popup doesn’t work too well. This functionality works great when you need to focus on one task but when reordering rows, you are actually doing it in context to the estimate / invoice that is being covered up by this popup.

It’s quite slow and you kind of lose perspective on what you are working on if you have quite a few items in the estimate.

or sorry, for estimating I should have said above… but this concept translates to both anyway :-)

so if I change my template for invoicing, doesn’t that change them all? or can you start creating separate templates for the same thing (eg. invoice1, invoice2, etc)

both of these solutions sound quite clunky.

Topic: Troubleshooting & Bug Reports / Lightbox log-in

Not sure what they are using for the login ajax ‘loading’ but I will call it Lightbox at the moment as that is it’s type of functionality.

Anyways, Cashboard can for some reason never remember my details (username and password) and for some reason Firefox can’t save it for me with this site either. I think it’s the Lightbox hijacking the form submit is my guess?

Can anyone get Cashboard to remember login details?

thanks

Topic: Troubleshooting & Bug Reports / estimates with choices of price / work

How does one do an estimate with different options?

For example, I want to throw a client an estimate that says:

- you can choose option A (900)
- you can chhose otions B (1200)
- or you can choose option C (1500)

at the moment it seems quite clunky due to:
- tasks, these just add up (low – high) and I don’t want a final tally as this can freak out a client if all that adds up
- general flat fee, these still add up at the bottom. Misrepresenting the quote.

thanks
