New Contributor: Vicnet
News, Personal February 12th, 2009My last post about the latest version of Nexty has mentioned a new contributor for the Nexty project. Ladies and Gentlemen, let me introduce you to Vicnet – this is what he has to say about himself…
I am Vicnet, software developer and… french. To know more about me, visit my site http://osele.free.fr/.
Thanks to him, Nexty now has a french translation – and more importantly, supports i18n. If you want to switch to the french version of nexty, go to the option page and set the language as french.
Another good thing about having him on the project is that he has a lot of good ideas on what to do with Nexty. My ideas have run dry some time ago.
Online Nexty Updated
In other news, the Online version of nexty has been update with the latest version of Nexty – 1.03.A.

Wow, i was so happy to see some news about nexty, in my feedreader.
Opened the website and voilà a new version and a new contributor … seems like christmas or something like that
Welcome to Vicnet, I hope to see more great news.

Well, I am surprised by the fact that there is another subscriber to this feed

As you’re getting ready to tweak the next version, it sure would be nice to have a Section called Reference. Right now, I’ve got various Projects called “Reference – whatever” but it would be nice to have it as a section instead.
I’m really liking Nexty so far – thanks for the work you’re putting into it.

I just started to use Nexty, and I will be testing it’s usefulness for getting my head clear to get stuff done at my job. I just wanted to say I really appreciate the hard work you guys have put into it so far! I really like what I’ve seen so far.

Thanks – you made my day

Just signed up and had a look. It is neat, compact and concise from the start, which is what I like – quite intuitive.
First thing I didn’t like is enough to make me stop using it for now though. When I open a task, I like to keep my notes for that task with the task.. sometimes my notes are large. But when I put my notes in the “description” text field, that text gets displayed in the task lists.. which isn’t good.
I think there needs to be another field just for notes that doesn’t get displayed in lists.

Good point – how about limiting the description text when its in task list? Just show the first 50 words or so? Would that be preferable?

Hi,
I’ve just discovered your webapp via lifehacker.com
I’m using french version as i’m.. french
but it seems html headers lack the UTF8 encoding spec as i must force my browser to decode the page as utf8 to see accented characters normaly.
Also, it seems i can’t add a project while using french interface, but it works when i’m in english…

Thanks for the feedback – I’ll look into it.

Hey guys I was about to sign up and I found that Registration is misspelled. Dont mean to sound like an ass..I am just saying I found that.
Are you needing a spanish translation?

Hi Binny,
> Just show the first 50 words or so?
Sounds workable to me. Or.. to first line break? Or first period?
First period gets my vote.

Hello,
I have just started using it and I like it. Thanks for the hard work. The interface is really good and I feel it is a proper GTD tool!
As You have mentioned that you have run dry of ideas, I thought that it would be OK for me to mention a few “nice to have” features:
- Ability to work offline and then synchronise back
- Ability to print out a nicely laid out context list or project list to have in my pocket when out of the office.
- Possibility to synchronise with Outlook Calendar as I have to keep mine up to date so that my colleagues know what I am up to.
Well that is probably an awful lot of work and my coding abilities are quite limited…

Thanks for the feedback – I have fixed it in my code – will update the site soon.
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:41 am
Thanks. Offline sync is cool – but not possible in a dependable way in current browsers. I’ll wait for HTML5 to be the norm before implementing that. The print idea is good – I’ll see what I can do about that – it shouldn’t take much time. I’m not sure about the outlook calendar idea – I’ll have to do a bit of research before doing anything in that. Thanks for the feedback!

Also, on the Edit screen, there is a button called “Edit” which should probably be re-labeled as “Save”.
December 4th, 2009 at 10:09 am
That is great!
Another “nice to have” feature sprung up to my mind: Being able to download a backup (in say a CSV or text file) so that if something goes wrong on the server side one doesn’t completely loose his tasks.

I am still loving it and using it!!!
I would like to have entries in the future on the calendar. Is it possible? I can’t have a look at Jan 2010 for instance…
December 27th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
looks great. Wish you could integrate with Google calendar…. that would be awesome.

I’m not able to find any information in installing it. Using the install.php i create a database and provide the information but it just goes to a blank screen with no feedback.
January 2nd, 2010 at 6:56 pm
I found out that I didn’t have php-mysql installed and with some other small configuration items. Perhaps you should put up a list of requirements for your app. I.e. MySQL, Php v5, Mysql user and database created for Nexty, etc.

I try to use the Nexty software, it’s sound good, i’m french and i have problem with the translation.
I just correct the french translation to work either on UTF-8. I modified the files : fr_FR.js and fr_FR.php on my server. I you want the correct translation, just send me a mail jerome.deville AT free.fr.
January 20th, 2010 at 6:12 am
I also correct some missing translations in “Search.php”
June 22nd, 2010 at 11:09 pm
I really like Nexty and (try) to use it every day. But I can’t really use it on my phone, because of the screen size. Maybe I could try to help you guys with a mobile version? I’m a software programmer
June 23rd, 2010 at 9:42 am
I have to mention, you guys really made a program that rocks! I’m implementing it now for my various online projects.
I really liked the simplicity of it. C’mon, PHP and MySql, what could be simpler than that? LOL
Thank you guys!

Hi gentlemen,
please add encoding (utf-8) meta tag to head so I can translate it to czech language. Or I can provide a patch if you want
