Since 2005 I support with my company db8.nl other companies with Joomla websites. When developing websites for customers I always have to do the same things to configure and optimize the website before putting it live. The awesome Live Checklist created by Rene Kreijveld has proven to be a great tool to keep track of everything that you have to do. It's a list of things you have to do to configure and optimize your Joomla website.
However, the list is an offline one that you can use next to your computer. What if such a list would be inside the website you were developing? I decided to develop this extension to have such a checklist tool within the website that is under development. Website developers can add their own checklist or Generate a default Live Checklist.
You can download an installation package from Download page at db8.nl or get the most recent release from github.com/pe7er/db8sitedev/releases This package consists of a Component and a Module:
Component
With the Admin Component a website developer can easily create a checklist of all things that have to be done before the site can be put live. The component has an option to import or export your own checklists.
Module
The Admin Module is published on the Control Panel of your /administrator/ back-end so that you can easily keep track of everything that still has to be done. The UNchecked and Checked counters and Category name can all be clicked and will navigate you to the Checklist, filtered on what you clicked.
