It’s not completely up-to-date, but it will be when the final release is ready.

You can report any requests and of course you can correct my errors, since English is not my mother-tongue!

Thank you for your patience.

Jello.Dashboard 3 (beta 4)

A pretty quick update for some serious bugs reported by users.
The masterlist agenda bug was fixed, the sidebar width setting was added again (in percentage), the sidebar can be hidden with side-effects still when on left), and you can add some of your favorite URLs into the webs section to view inside the dashboard.

There is still the documentation issue: It’s not yet up-to-date  and users of Outlook 2007 cannot view itfrom inside the dashboard.

so… Get it and send in bugs, reports and suggestions.

Jello Dashboard beta 2 with fixes

I put together another release with some fixes. The most important of all is the style.css fix (please report bugs on this) , filter by context fix, and the ability to use off-line folders with no problems (haven’t tested out myself but I think it will work). There is also a new button into the settings screen which allows you to view the Outlook folders being used by the dashboard.

Please use the downloads page to get the latest release.

I know I’m late replying to your requests, but I’ve been busy trying to move this site to its own domain. Thank you for your patience and your support!

Jello Dashboard 3.0 beta

Finally, I’m done with some speed fixes and other minor bugs including some of your requests and the 3rd version of the Jello.Dashboard is almost ready.

It’s a beta for two reasons. The first one is that I wasn’t able to fully grant your wishes (some of them still not possible to do) and the second one is that it will need some testing due to some querying technology changes for speed. So please report any bug you may find.

Documentation is still incomplete, but all new setting descriptions have been updated.

I also re-packed an hta (web application) standalone version.

You can download the file from the same locations

I would like to thank you all for your support, bug reports and requests.
