Hello all:

I would like to schedule a habit to occur 6 times a week from Monday to
Saturday. I have looked through the manual, but I can't seem to find a
way to do it. I have tried:

,----
| <%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))>
`----

but it didn't work. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Charles

Works for me and I use similar to this.

do you have associated time for your task or at least a keyword?

If I have following it *does not* show in the agenda

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** testing
 <%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


where as the following two shows up in my block agenda.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** TODO testing
 <%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** testing 10:00-11:00
 <%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


Thanks.,

Thank you for the reply.

It works fine for me with regular scheduled TODO items. However, it does
not work on org-habit scheduled items. I am getting this when "entering
debug on error:

,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Not a standard Org-mode time string: %%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))")
|   signal(error ("Not a standard Org-mode time string: %%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))"))
|   error("Not a standard Org-mode time string: %s" "%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))")
|   org-parse-time-string("%%(memq (calendar-day-of-week date) '(1 2 3 4 5 6))")
|   org-get-scheduled-time(625)
|   org-habit-parse-todo()
|   byte-code("\306 \210\307\310!\311\310\224S\312 \313\216\314 *\r\315=\206\x1f
`----

BTW, my Org-mode version is 7.8.11.
