## How a Todo is marked as Done
### Manually creating a Todo
You can also add an issue or merge request to your Todos dashboard by clicking
the "Add Todo" button in the issue or merge request sidebar.

## Marking a Todo as done
Any action to the corresponding issue or merge request will mark your Todo as
**Done**. This action can include:
**Done**. Actions that dismiss Todos include:
- changing the assignee
- changing the milestone
- adding/removing a label
- commenting on the issue
In case where you think no action is needed, you can manually mark the todo as
done by clicking the corresponding **Done** button, and it will disappear from
your Todos list. If you want to mark all your Todos as done, just click on the
**Mark all as done** button.

In order for a Todo to be marked as done, the action must be coming from you.
So, if you close the related issue or merge the merge request yourself, and you
had a Todo for that, it will automatically get marked as done. On the other
hand, if someone else closes, merges or takes action on the issue or merge
request, your Todo will remain pending. This makes sense because you may need
to give attention to an issue even if it has been resolved.
Todos are personal, and they're only marked as done if the action is coming from
you. If you close the issue or merge request, your Todo will automatically
be marked as done.
If someone else closes, merges, or takes action on the issue or merge
request, your Todo will remain pending. This way, an issue or merge request
that was closed by another user
There is just one Todo per issue or merge request, so mentioning a user a
hundred times in an issue will only trigger one Todo.

If no action is needed, you can manually mark the Todo as done by clicking the
corresponding **Done** button, and it will disappear from your Todo list.

A Todo can also be marked as done from the issue or merge request sidebar using
the "Mark Done" button.

You can mark all your Todos as done at once by clicking on the **Mark all as

## Filtering your Todos

dashboard:
