Description jc 2016-12-22 13:52:08 UTC
This app is great but the only synchronization option requires a Google account.

Gnome and its application is free software, so it is a pity that synchronization features rely on proprietary and closed services.

Gnome-todo should at least support Caldav for interoperability with most other solutions.

As-is, the application is not usable for many professionals or people who care enough on privacy issues for not having a Google account.

Sorry, today I notice the same problem with Nextcloud. However it seems that support is simply broken, because when GNOME ToDo is started from terminal, it prints message:

> ** Message: Setting up Online Account: emma
Probably it found my ownCloud (Nextcloud) account, but nothing more.

Distro: Arch Linux, GNOME ToDo 3.22.1
Comment 2 François 2017-06-07 10:00:00 UTC
I have the same problem on ubuntu since 16.10 to my current 17.04 running GNOME ToDo 3.22.1

I think https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782541 is also related.

Comment 4 Stephen 2017-06-17 00:17:48 UTC
From the linked report and my own experience gnome-todo ignore EDS entirely, is that correct? I have CalDAV task lists added in Evolution but gnome-todo shows none of them, and of course GOA (still) has no generic DAV options, just a growing stack almost entirely of proprietary services...
Comment 5 Khurshid Alam 2017-06-19 19:02:23 UTC
Now Google task lists added from evolution doesn't appear in to-do list either https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782541
Comment 6 Khurshid Alam 2017-06-19 19:05:33 UTC
@Stephen

No. Local task lists added from evolution works fine. Problem is with any kind of online task-lists. Something is broken in eds-integration.
Comment 7 Stephen 2017-06-19 21:39:02 UTC
eds-integration? A specific part of EDS? Or you're just referring to gnome-todo's integration with EDS being broken?
Comment 8 Khurshid Alam 2017-06-21 14:01:02 UTC
@Stephen

A specific part of gnome-todo's integration with EDS. Local task-lists added in evolution appears in gnome-todo. But online task-lists(caldav/Google) added in evolution doesn't.
Comment 9 André Klapper 2020-11-25 16:21:16 UTC
bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all
older bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen
updates for a while.

If you still use gnome-todo and if you still see this bug / want this
feature in a recent and currently supported version, then please feel free to
report it at
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-todo/-/issues/
by following the guidelines at
https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented
so far (volunteer workforce and time is limited).
