Story Tools for Pivotal Tracker插件描述

Converts sties with tasks into epics with sties.  

 If “Feature Creeps” keep loading up your sties with tasks you can fight back by converting the sties with tasks into epics with individual sties.  Any tasks already checked off will be treated as finished sties when converted.  
 If you are brainstming around crucial dates  events you can make them the name of a sty  load up the sties with tasks befe converting them to epics with sties.  
 If sties are too vague  nonfunctional but you don’t want to lose them, simply add in the specific tasks  make the iginal an epic with the tasks as sties.


Clones sties.

 Keep a list of your favite best practices  feature sets to clone whenever you like, saving time in your brainstming sessions.
 You will keep the full description along with the name, type, labels, tasks,  even task status.  

Even clone Epics.

 Full clusters of activity can be saved as sties with tasks, then duplicated  converted to Epics.  That’s as good as it gets since Pivotal won’t let users select epics.  

Plays nice.

 We’ve tested.  Does not slow down your web experience  ste personal infmation.  
 

Update 1.0: Now much less confusing. no token copypasting required. 
Requires that the "Create New Token" button in your Pivotal Tracker Profile be clicked.

Updates: 

1.1: fixed a bug involving leftover token if the token is refreshed.

1.2: min bugfixes.

1.3: me min bugfixes 

1.4: Hled a bug likely caused by Pivotal Trackers new API in beta.

1.5: Name changed from "Pivotal Tracker+"  icon changed so that the app meets the stard of Pivotal Trackers Third Party Application page.

1.6: Fixed bug that made the "Make Sties into Epics" function not wk if there was no tasks under the sty. The err was a remnant of the code that existed befe development of epics was possible to prevent the accidental deletion of a sty, but that "feature" is a bug now, so it was removed

1.7:  Install much easier now.  Tutial not needed.  Does not suppt attachments. Duplicate now runs on API v5  is much faster.

1.8: Added suppt f other less used tabs f all functions. You can duplicate  make epics out of sties from the "done", "backlog",  "my wk" sections in Pivotal.
Additionally, fixes a bug that prevented duplication introduced by a recent change made to the backend interface of Pivotal.
1.9 Added suppt f PTs new UI. Unftunately, dashboard internal suppt has been made very difficult, requiring a button next to the search bar. Also resolved a loading issue that slowed down use of Pivotal Tracker when large amounts of items were copied.

Plans f future development:
I intend to establish full hierarchies with epics; adding a sty to an internal epic will include it as part of the epics containing it. It may even be possible to rearrange the hierarchies  shift around all the sties within those epics. However, Im not sure if Im going to make that within this application  a separate one, as its beginning to stretch outside the scope of this ancient project.
