WP To Do
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-todo/
This is a full blown to do list and task management system that integrates in your administration panel. As a full featured “to do” list manager this plugin makes it possible to add requests
to the list and assign those to registered users. The items can be edited, assigned a due date and you can manage to-dos by statuses and importance. The assignees can be notified
automatically or by need, sending a comment or a reminder automatically. Great for people collaborating on a site. I only wish it had recurring tasks, like maintenance or a monthly posting task.

Question from Tjobbe Andrews from the UK
I need help Re-categorising 1,200 products!
HELP! Basically, I inherited a website and almost every product is in the wrong category, and it would be much easier for me (I think?) to just start from scratch and put every product in a new category from scratch. Can this be done “offline” – i.e on a test / dev server – and then used to over-write the live server? So in effect I create the new categories on the test server, and I want to tell the live server what the new categories should be. How would this be done, physically?
Answer:
WP ALL Import and WP All Export can do this in about 30 seconds. It allows you to export everything in your site, change it offline and then re-import it to overwrite the existing content with what is correct.

Plugin Activation Info
https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-activation-info/
This is a really great lazy plugin, just like we like them. What it does is it adds a new column “Last Activated By Username” on the plugins dashboard that shows when each plugin was activated. It is very handy in terms of debugging the issues on websites. Remember, it can only keep track of who activates plugins AFTER it is installed. You can't track plugins that were activated before you install this plugin. So it's ideal for brand new sites.
