Hi,
I'm having the exact same issue as this question on stackoverflow
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18123972/emacs-org-mode-clear-non-repeated-scheduled-time-when-deadline-is-repeated
and I've copied it below.
The solution provided to the question modifies the source, which I'd like
to avoid if possible. Is there a better way of doing this like by setting a
variable or a hook? Or does anyone have better ideas about this type of
workflow?
Question:
> I use org-mode to manage some deadlines for repeated tasks. For example, I
> may have something like the following:
> * TODO My Weekly Task
> DEADLINE <2013-08-10 Sat +1w>
> If I mark the task as DONE, then the deadline automatically increments to
> the next week as expected. However, I also like to use the SCHEDULED time
> to indicate when during the week I would like to actually do that task, for
> example:
> * TODO My Weekly Task
> DEADLINE <2013-08-10 Sat +1w> SCHEDULED: <2013-08-08 Thu>
> This makes the task show up in the agenda for today (Thursday). However
> when I mark the task DONE, I end up with the following:
> * TODO My Weekly Task
> DEADLINE <2013-08-17 Sat +1w> SCHEDULED: <2013-08-08 Thu>
> ...and the task still appears in the agenda view for today, even though it
> has been completed.
> Is it possible, for tasks that have a repeated DEADLINE, to get Org-Mode
> to clear the non-repeated SCHEDULED date?
