EasyRoadmap – Interactive Kanban Roadmap for WordPress

Description

EasyRoadmap is a modern WordPress plugin that lets you create, manage, and display product roadmaps in a clean Kanban-style layout.

Tasks are organized into stages (using the custom taxonomy task_stage) and can be filtered by product (using task_product).

The plugin also supports task voting and exposes data via REST API, making it ideal for transparency, feedback collection, and internal planning.

Key Features

  • Kanban-Style Board: Easily view and manage tasks by dragging and dropping them across stages.
  • Custom Post Type & Taxonomies:
    • task post type for roadmap items.
    • task_stage for defining workflow columns (e.g., Planned, In Progress, Done).
    • task_product for categorizing tasks by product.
  • Voting System: Enable users to upvote or downvote tasks.
  • REST API: Access and manipulate roadmap data programmatically.
  • Responsive Design: Fully optimized for both desktop and mobile views.
  • Shortcode Integration: Use the [roadmap] shortcode to embed the roadmap wherever needed.

Shortcode Usage

Embed the roadmap on any post or page with:

[roadmap]

Optional parameter:
product (integer): Use a term ID from the task_product taxonomy to filter tasks. Example: [roadmap product="12"]

Column Color Customization

Each roadmap stage is a term in the Stages (task_stage) taxonomy. To set a custom color for a column:
1. Navigate to Tasks > Stages in your WordPress admin.
2. Edit the desired stage (e.g., “Planned”, “In Progress”).
3. Pick a hex color (e.g., #3B82F6) using the color picker
4. The chosen color will appear as the header background for that column on the roadmap board.
