Inbox? Any way to do?

1

I’m wondering if there’s a simple way to have an Inbox that I can enter random tasks for later positioning in my outline. Of course I can create “Inbox” at the top – which I have done – but I’d like to NOT have to open the Inbox and interrupt where I’m at in a project in order to quickly add a new task. Any ideas?

Are you looking for a desktop “Add item” app?

I think he wants a “create in” functionality, but he could create the node and then ‘mm’ to inbox

I see two options here:

  1. Using webclipper, which even has an own keyboard shortcut
  2. Using a bookmark to the page which previously worked in the old webclipper version: Enter and master your projects . It is a bit ugly but still works :slight_smile:

Maybe this would help?

Best,

I’m not sure I understand your question - but what I do is to send any random thoughts to my main todo list. Then when I open the list, I use the “move” command (mm) to send the items where they need. to be. The "move command is very elegant - it shows all items across all your list that match your search query, and then send your random item to that spot. For major project titles, where I am likely to send many items, I use a unique name so it will show up quickly in the “move”'s search results; just putting a period before the project title will do the trick.

There’s a feature where you can email in items to show up on your lists. Maybe you could set this up to function as an inbox. Because it would probably be much easier to enable a Quick Email thing on your devices, than the specifically integrate with Checkvist
