Hello Experts,

I recently update my Emacs to 23.1 and the org-mode to 6.30e.  Then I
noticed my org-remember is not working. When I type C-c C-c, I got the
following error:

"Target files for notes must be in Org-mode if not filing to top/bottom"

My settings are:

(org-remember-insinuate)
(setq sx-notes-file-name "~/.notes.org")
(setq sx-journal-file-name "~/.journal.org")
(setq org-remember-templates
      '(
        ("Journal" ?j "* %U %?\n\n  %i\n  %a" sx-journal-file-name)
        ("Notes" ?n "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" sx-notes-file-name "Notes")
    )
      )
Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Xin

I solved the problem by using the file name directly:

(setq org-remember-templates
      '(
        ("Journal" ?j "* %U %?\n\n  %i\n  %a" "~/.journal.org")
        ("Notes" ?n "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" "~/.notes.org" "Notes")
    )
      )

Alternatively, you can use the backquote mechanism in such situations - it
allows you to evaluate parts of a (back)quoted expression, by preceding them
with commas:

(setq sx-notes-file-name "~/.notes.org")
(setq sx-journal-file-name "~/.journal.org")
(setq org-remember-templates
      `(
        ("Journal" ?j "* %U %?\n\n  %i\n  %a" ,sx-journal-file-name)
        ("Notes" ?n "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" ,sx-notes-file-name "Notes")
       ))

See

  http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Backquote.html#Backquote

for details.

HTH,
Nick

Hi,

Using the latest (as of this morning in any case) org-mode, I get the
following error if I invoke org-remember (C-c r) from the agenda view:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  signal(error ("Don't know what location to link to"))
  error("Don't know what location to link to")
  org-store-link(nil)
  org-remember-annotation()
  run-hook-with-args-until-success(org-remember-annotation)
  remember(nil)
  org-do-remember()
  org-remember(nil)
  call-interactively(org-remember nil nil)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This happens when the cursor in the agenda view is not on an actual
item, such as if you bring up the agenda initially and the cursor is
on the date line.

I can re-run with org-mode not compiled if necessary.

thanks,
eric

Okay... :)  Thanks Carsten!

* Bernt deletes his org-mode task: Remove error for remember at bottom
  of agenda

I guess I need to report bugs faster... I ran into this on Sep
15th... but haven't had time to look into it yet ... and now it's fixed.

So on that note I'll ship the others bug reports shortly once I verify
they still exist.
