Re: [Tiki-devel] Kanban modifications and modal editing

Hi Torsten

The first one should be simple, adding "click-modal" to the edit icon button - that bit should be easy, it's just recompiling the Kanban project that puts me off, always takes me a while to get that going... hopefully i'll find time to do it soon if no one else does.

The second: does the kanban view not add the "List detail popup" fields like a tracker item link does? Maybe try that and if it doesn't we could add it (optionally presumably).

Glad you're using it in the real world, wish i had more time to play with it (or had a client that wanted it ;)!
