Following and Shared
Why can't I filter what tasks I'm following or that I am shared to, like I can with what I am assigned to. I can never see a full list of what I am following. How can I follow something if I can't ever see it? :|

Folllowing List for Post: Following and Shared

Hi Karl-Erik, the best way to see a full list you're shared on is to click the account name in the left-hand Navigation panel and switch to the List View. You'll see a list of all of the tasks that are shared with you and can manually begin following any that you're interested in.
I did want to mention some other options though. You can opt to follow all the tasks in a Folder/Project, or only certain tasks within that Folder/Project. That lets you automatically begin following new tasks as they are created, and saves you the time of having to manually look for tasks. Does that sound like it might work for you?
I think it would be handy to be able to have at the ability to have a dashboard widget that let's me see all the tasks I'm following. That way if there's individual tasks scattered throughout different projects, I don't have to go through each project to look at the status. I know I can manually pin things to "My Work" section, but I like that you can be auto-tagged as a follower when you for instance are simply @mentioned. This can help managers or people not assigned to the task the ability to check in on it without it cluttering up their My Work section.
Hi Lauren, it's a great idea! I think you may be interested in voting for Ryan's post on the topic. Feel free to add any additional detail by commenting there too. Thanks for sharing!
