How do I add new To-Dos to pages?

To-Dos are another tool to help users add content to your site. By adding a To-Dos to pages on your site, needed content and changes become easily discoverable at a site and page level. Also, To-Dos will help empower new users and focus existing contributors by directing them to what content is needed. Check out the video demos or scroll down for detailed instructions.

Video Examples

Note: The Wetpaint interface has changed significantly since these videos were made. We'll get them updated soon. See the section below for more detailed instructions.
Creating a To-Do
Completing a To-Do


Create a New To-Do

To create a new To-Do, simply click on the "Add a To-Do" link at the top of the page.


Add a T0-Do link

The "Add a To-Do" dialog will appear.

Add a To-Do Dialog

Select a To-Do type from the drop down list. The options include:
  • Clean up / formatting
  • Add content
  • Add cross links
  • Fact check
  • Add images
  • Link image
  • Custom / other
  • Fill out page template
  • Populate blank page
  • Proof read
  • Spell check
  • Add videos

Add a To-Do  Dialog - Completed
Give your To-Do a title, like "The three dog image needs a link".
Add a comment to your To-Do for additional clarity on the request.
You can mark a To-Do as high priority with the "Mark this To-Do as High Priority" check box. High Priority To-Dos will appear at the top of the list of To-Dos.
If you want to be kept up to date on any changes made to a To-Do, you can add it to your Watchlist by checking the Watch this To-Do checkbox.

Send a User a Notification

After adding a To-Do to a page you will have the opportunity to send another user on the site a notification about the To-Do. You might like to use this feature to contact new or power users directly about a To-Do hoping to bring their attention and skills to resolving the To-Do.
Type the recipient's username in the To: field or select To: and add the user name from the Address Book.
You can update the Subject line and add in a specific message in the body of the notification.

Send Notification of To-Do

Complete a To-Do

There are two ways to complete a To-Do and remove it from view on a page.
  1. Expand the To-Do to show the comment for the To-Do. Click on the “Do this now” button; the EasyEdit toolbar will open. Make an edit to the page that resolves the To-Do and click on the "Save" button in the toolbar. The Complete a To-Do dialog will open.
  2. Expand the To-Do to show the comment for the To-Do. Click on the “Mark Complete” button; the Complete a To-Do dialog will open.
