Order TODOs manually (for prioritisation)

[ghost]

Each time I look at my list of TODOs I have to read through them all to pick out the next one to do. I'd like to order them as I go, so that once I've done one, I can open up the list and see the next one to do on top.

You could use the tag or id fields like below, add it to the "Show In Table" config and sort after that.

// TODO(1): This todo will have id 1
// TODO(2): This todo will have id 2
// TODO: This todo will have tag 1 #1
// TODO: This todo will have tag 2 #2

Thanks, I will try this out. I guess the most intuitive and least work is to be able to drag and drop TODOs in the list, especially when it comes to re-ordering.

Agreed that Drag and Drop ordering would be great. I imagine adding that at this stage could be a lot of work though. How the IMDONE package enables it is nice for sure.

Another thing to note, if you try above suggestion the ordering using tags it won't work as expected. If you have items tagged #1, #5 and #10 then the order will be:
#1
#10
#5

Small proposal: make enhancement to sort by type, get sort order from FindTheseTodos field
