Subject: what would cause failure in template for org capture?
Date: Wed, 21 Jul 2021 12:36:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87im13zynj.fsf@ucl.ac.uk> (raw)

Hello all,

I am getting this error message:

org-capture: Capture abort: Unknown template placeholder: "%^G"

when attempting to capture a task using this template:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates
               '("t"
                 "todo"
                 entry (file+headline "~/s/notes/todo.org" "refile")
                 "* %^{Task}   %^G\n%i%?\n%U\n"))
#+end_src

The error happens after having entered the information for the Task in
the template so next would be the tags.

This was working until recently.  Both Emacs and org are up to date
relative to their git repositories.  The only change done recently in my
configuration is a move from ivy to selectrum for completion.
