Hi,
I am relatively new to org-mode (7.8.02). After working with org-mode for several weeks, I came to realize that none of the repeater timestamps or tasks (+1d, 1w or +1m) show in the agenda timeline unless there is another "one-time" timestamp for the same day. Basically, I am not able to see them? Please advise.
Thanks & Happy New Year to all,
CK

Hi Christian,
Please show us an example of a repeater entry that you think should show
up in your agenda so we can help diagnose your issue.

Bernt

The OP is talking about the "timeline" in the agenda (C-c a L). This has
been discussed before on the mailing list and it does indeed have the
problem the OP mentions. The upshot however (afaik) is that "timeline"
is considered obsolete functionality. There may be different ways to
accomplish what the OP wants however. See e.g. the extensive thread at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/39368

Ah, thanks for the clarification Nick. I don't use the timeline at all
and didn't get a clue :)

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the link. I had also set org-agenda-show-all-dates to nil to no avail. I concluded after reading some of the comments in thread that due to the history of timeline, I would best use it to see what has happened in an org-file - more like reviewing your past journal entries - than as a planning tool. Please let me know if you have any further suggestion or comments. Thanks again for your quick feedback.
CK

If you haven't read it yet, I think you should read Carsten's note on
the history and usage of the timeline - it explains things far better
than I could:
