I use tags just for "task" and "done", to show a tiddler is a task, and to
show it's done. That way you can have a list of done tasks. The list-links
macro is great.

A tiddler can have multiple tags, but a field can only have one value.

Status could be a field or a tag I guess.

Very simple to add a summary field and make that show in the slider instead
of the tiddler text. Put !!tasksummary (or whatever) instead of !!text.

Happy to help! I was where you are a few months ago. This group is very
helpful.

Best regards,
Matthew
