Hey, is there is a way to add opened, inprogress, finished like in the following picture, it would add a lot of value when the category is dedicated to new ideas

You could use tags for that (and a tag group so only one at a time can be selected) ?

[Tickets Plugin](https://meta.discourse.org/t/tickets-plugin/97914) could add a very cool approach on UI/UX when selecting tags:

_I don’t know if plugins can be mixed but @Dante_Dante can try them for sure._
