      Hey all-- I cannot figure out a way to get the available todo lists to work for my use case, which I feel like must mean I’m missing something. I have a multi-page family dashboard, and I want a separate chores list for each member of the family to appear on their page. These are recurring chores, so they should get refreshed daily. Also, I want to be able to clear tasks with the touchscreen. So far I’ve tried:

      • MMM-Chores. Most excited about this-- has everything I want, except that I can’t display separated task lists on each person’s page.

      • MMM-TodoList. Has separated task lists and touchscreen clearing, but no recurring tasks.

      • MMM-CalDAV-Tasks. Looks like it could do the job, but apparently it doesn’t work with iCloud? I can’t get it to work, and I found active/unanswered threads in GitHub that it’s just not compatible with iCloud. So I’d have to setup a NextCloud server just to use it?

      • MMM-Todoist. No touchscreen check off capabilities. Looks like it’s the same with MMM-GoogleTasks?

      Is this just such a niche use case that none of the available tools can do this? Or have I missed something? Thanks!

        @jtillinghast I’m not well-versed in all of the specific to-do modules, but is this task list something you could create and maintain in a spreadsheet? If so, you can check out my module MMM-GoogleSheets. I recently added checkbox support (with write-back to Google Sheets) so if you build in the formulas to clear tasks as they are checked off this should work as you expect it to.
