We created a goal setting plugin for our clients who have WordPress based membership sites and associations.
The plugin allows users on your site to set goals. A goal in our view consists out of a title, description, a deadline and then breaks down into tasks and substeps to be achieved along the way. The plugin allows for progress tracking and plays nicely with the Gamipress suite of WordPress plugins, which allow for further gamification of your unique processes.
