How can I tag TODO items in Confluence

[Jim Melton]

I have a series of pages that we are using to document our evolving design. I'd like the ability to tag a certain portion of the text as a TODO. It would be even more awesome if the TODOs could be gathered into a TODO list automagically.

Example:

When the Flux Capacitor is calibrated with the {todo:Frobnozz}, the time circuit accuracy is increased to 0.001 picoseconds.

Am I dreaming?

that is a challenging question. When in edit mode in confluence select the text and click on the task macro will change that line to a task item.  Then you can create a report using the Task Report macro and it will create a summary including on which page that task can be found.

Not a perfect solution.

It would be cleaner to have a Task list macro on page and reference the line so you won't alter the format of your paragraph.

This is using what is included with confluence. There may be an add-on to accomplish this for you.

I did see task items, but it's not quite what I'm looking for.

How would a Task list reference a given line? Or better yet, the part of the line that needs clarification?
