Switching views is one click \u2014 and your team can each prefer a different view of the same project without conflict.<\/p>\n<h2>List view<\/h2>\n<p>The default. Tasks are rows; columns are fields. Click any column header to sort. Drag the divider to resize. Right-click a column to hide it or add another. Bulk-select with shift-click.<\/p>\n<p>Best for: triage, planning, anything where you want to see a lot of tasks at once and edit fields inline.<\/p>\n<h2>Board view<\/h2>\n<p>Kanban. Columns are statuses (or any other single-select field \u2014 assignee, priority, custom field). Drag cards between columns to change their value. Multi-select supported.<\/p>\n<p>Best for: work-in-progress visualization, daily standups, anything with a clear flow from left to right.<\/p>\n<h2>Timeline view<\/h2>\n<p>Gantt-style. Tasks are bars on a horizontal time axis, grouped by section, owner, or any single-select field. Dependencies render as arrows between bars; the critical path highlights in red.<\/p>\n<p>Drag a bar&#8217;s edge to change start or end date. Drag the middle to reschedule. Hold shift while dragging to move a task and all its dependents together.<\/p>\n<p>Best for: project-level planning, deadline-sensitive work, anything where order and duration matter.<\/p>\n<h2>Calendar view<\/h2>\n<p>Tasks rendered on a month or week grid by their due date (or due-date range). Click an empty day to create a task there. Drag a task to a new day to reschedule.<\/p>\n<p>Best for: personal planning, short-window scheduling, content calendars, hiring pipelines.<\/p>\n<h2>Saving a view<\/h2>\n<p>Any combination of view type + filter + sort + grouping can be saved as a named view. <strong>Views \u2192 Save as new view<\/strong>, give it a name, choose <em>Personal<\/em> or <em>Shared<\/em>. Shared views appear in the project sidebar for everyone with access.<\/p>\n<p>Common shared views worth setting up: <em>My open tasks this week<\/em>, <em>Overdue<\/em>, <em>Blocked by me<\/em>, <em>Ready for review<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When to use each of the four core views, what each does well, and how saved views work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":24,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[30,29,28,27],"class_list":["post-23","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-views-reports","tag-calendar","tag-gantt","tag-kanban","tag-views"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.fasterthemes.com\/mywiki-wordpress-theme\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
