The guiding text in =M-x customize variable org-archive-location= says: ,----- | "~/org/archive.org::From %s" | Archive in file ~/org/archive.org (absolute path), under headlines | "From FILENAME" where file name is the current file name. `----- I may just be reading this wrong, but I thought that if I were to set this option like so in a file: ,----- | #+archive: ~/org/archive.org::From %s `----- I would do =C-c C-x C-s= and then see the following in ~/org/archive.org: ,----- | * From filename.org | ** done name of archived todo... `----- Instead, I saw: ,----- | Archived entries from file /home/jwhendy/org/rigor.org | * done name of archived todo... `----- When I changed the option to (note the leading *): ,----- | #+archive: ~/org/archive.org::* From %s `----- I got the anticipated result: ,----- | * From filename.org | ** done name of archived todo... `----- Did I just read the documentation incorrectly, or was my guess intuitive and perhaps an update/correction would be helpful for others?
