I have managed to display the fields i like on the frontend by some code tweaking.

Steps:
Create template override for com_projectlog -> category
Backup file/components/com_projectlog/views/category/tmpl/default.xml and add the following to the end of the <fields> group.
<!-- Custom options. -->
		<fieldset name="custom" label="JGLOBAL_CUSTOM_LABEL" description="COM_PROJECTLOG_CONFIG_CUSTOM_SETTINGS_DESC">
			<field name="show_project_date"
                type="list"
				class="chzn-color"
                label="COM_PROJECTLOG_DATE_LABEL" 
                description="COM_PROJECTLOG_FIELD_DATE_FORMAT_DESC"
                >         
				<option value="">JGLOBAL_USE_GLOBAL</option>
				<option value="0">JHIDE</option>
				<option value="1">JSHOW</option>
            </field>
 
			<field name="show_project_status"
                type="list"
				class="chzn-color"
                label="COM_PROJECTLOG_STATUS_LABEL" 
                description="COM_PROJECTLOG_FIELD_STATUS_DESC"
                >         
				<option value="">JGLOBAL_USE_GLOBAL</option>
				<option value="0">JHIDE</option>
				<option value="1">JSHOW</option>
            </field>
 
			<field name="show_contract_from"
                type="list"
				class="chzn-color"
                label="COM_PROJECTLOG_CONTRACT_FROM_DATE_LABEL" 
                description="COM_PROJECTLOG_FIELD_CONTRACT_FROM_DATE_DESC"
                >         
				<option value="">JGLOBAL_USE_GLOBAL</option>
				<option value="0">JHIDE</option>
				<option value="1">JSHOW</option>
            </field>
        </fieldset>

Open file /templates/yourtemplate/html/com_projectlog/category/default_items.php and add the following after line 77.
<?php if ($this->params->get('show_contract_from')) : ?>
                        <th><?php echo JHtml::_('grid.sort', 'COM_PROJECTLOG_CONTRACT_FROM_DATE', 'contract_from', $listDirn, $listOrder); ?></th>
                    <?php endif; ?>
					<?php if ($this->params->get('show_project_status')) : ?>
                        <th><?php echo JHtml::_('grid.sort', 'COM_PROJECTLOG_STATUS_LABEL', 'status', $listDirn, $listOrder); ?></th>
                    <?php endif; ?>
					<?php if ($this->params->get('show_release_date')) : ?>
                        <th><?php echo JHtml::_('grid.sort', 'COM_PROJECTLOG_COMPLETE_DATE', 'release_date', $listDirn, $listOrder); ?></th>
                    <?php endif; ?>

Open file /templates/yourtemplate/html/com_projectlog/category/default_items.php and add the following after line 132.
                        <?php if ($this->params->get('show_contract_from') AND !empty($item->contract_from)) : ?>
                            <td><?php echo JHTML::date($item->contract_from, $item->params->get('pl_date_format')); ?></td>
						<?php endif; ?>
<?php if ($this->params->get('show_project_status')) : ?>
                            <td><?php echo ($item->params->get('show_project_status') AND !empty($item->status)) ? $item->status : '--'; ?></td>
						<?php endif; ?>
 
						<?php if ($this->params->get('show_release_date')) : ?>
                            <td><?php echo JHTML::date($item->release_date, $item->params->get('pl_date_format')); ?></td>
						<?php endif; ?>

Now you will have an output and menu config option like the included screenshots exept the translation. I have change some of the field translation based on my needs.

Maybe there is better approach & may errors occur fron the code above. Maybe the moderators or developers provide a cleaner solution..
