I don't this is entirely true? My diary entries, none of which is a TODO item, all get exported with a VALARM entity. Now, your comment about the timestamp being after the properties drawer may indeed be the case as non-TODO items will only appear in the diary if they have a timestamp and that timestamp does indeed have to come after the properties. -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 24.5.1, Org release_8.3.3-449-gd85ff3
