Hello!

I enter the planned webinars in the to-do list (each entry on the 
preparation page for the corresponding webinar) and after its completion 
I would like to see their list with dates and topics.
A to-do list is best for this.

I’m doing something like this now.

This is in my opinion too complicated - you have to use another program.
And I need to see exactly the list of completed cases - with their 
contents and dates in order to sort and compare among themselves.

Thank`s,
