Task name Keyword Filter for Dashboard Widget
I would love the ability to filter widgets for dashboards by a keyword in the task name!
Our tasks are methodical for each project, so being able to filter for "08. Confirm Delivery" in task name would mean I could set up a dashboard widget for someone to be able to keep track of that specific task duty across all projects.
Hi Mary Huddleston, thanks for reaching out! 🙂
You can add Search results to a dashboard, so I think it should be possible for you to search for "08. Confirm Delivery" and add the results to a dashboard:
Please let me know if that helped!

I wish the Search method worked for us, but it sadly does not. I would love to see filtering by task name in Dashboards and Calendars. Right now I am getting around this by adding a custom field and classifying a task so I can then filter by that field in the dashboard. It's quite tedious, it would be great if I could instead just filter by task name. Sad to see this feature hasn't gotten very many votes!

It definitely isn't the perfect method - we get some random tasks that even mention the word we search for in the comments. This seems like an easy feature to incorporate! I agree, I wish it had more votes! Good luck! 😊🍀
Thank you for the feedback, Mary Huddleston Ashley Crane! I'm passing it on to the Product team.

I have the same issue. A temporary work around, in hopes of a better permanent solution from the Wrike team, is to put your desired search term in quotes - that eliminated all the random tasks from my searches. Hopefully that will be helpful for you!
Thanks so much for sharing, Jenny Fields! 🙌

We create all projects from blueprints, meaning every project contains the same identically named tasks. We also have a huge number of projects annually (500+). Therefore we have several hundred tasks we would like to show up in Dashboard Widgets simply based on a task name keyword filter. E.g. a Dashboard Widget based on completed tasks named "Create final PDF" would be a hugely valuable addition to our print production dashboard.
Individual Wrike users, who typically work with specifically named tasks, would also benefit from being able to set up their own dashboards with Dashboard Widget task name filters. Using such a dashboard, users could then keep track of tasks belonging to their area of expertise, even if the tasks are not (yet) assigned to them.
Thank you for adding your thoughts here Tuomo Suominen! 👍

Agree, the search pulls in random results, and the dashboard shows completed tasks, which is far from ideal.

Hi!
I have the same problem. I would love to add a widget to my dashboard based on a few specific keywords - and then list them by activity and status. +1 upvote from Hungary!

I would love this, too - currently search is pulling everything BUT my quoted search term in task titles, just tasks where it's included in the body.

+1 very much a need. I'd suggest being able to filter tasks OR folders based on a keyword/phrase. In other words, show tasks within a folder that is a match. It isn't always the best organization to have subtasks under a parent task.
