[improvement] Backlog plugin help page, add some info on project initial setup

Added by andrea olivotto over 10 years ago

In the help page of the backlog plugin, IMHO I would like to add some info on the initial project setup of backlogs.

Something like these steps:

- create a new (fake) version named “Product Backlog”, placed on the right;

- create a new (fake) version named “Bug Backlog”, placed on the right;

- create a new (fake) version named “Wish List”, placed on the right;

- create the version named “Sprint 1”, placed on the left, set initial and due dates;

- now go to backlogs, add some user stories to “Product Backlog”;

- move some stories to “Sprint 1”;

- go to task board of “Sprint 1”;
- add some tasks to the user story, assign to a member;
…

Important clarifications:

- only the versions placed on the left have “Task Board”, “Burndown Chart”, … menu items;
- the version will be displayed on the roadmap, but not on the timeline! Workaround: to see something on the timeline, you need to create a “fake” phase work package (called “Sprint 1” as well) with the same start/due dat of the “Sprint 1” version.
…

Thanks a lot.

Andrea
