Hello,

I have the following custom agenda command:

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands
      '(("ww" "Work 2 day view"
         ((agenda ""
           ((org-agenda-files '("~/tmp/tmp.org"))
            (org-agenda-skip-function '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'notregexp
":@work:"))
            (org-agenda-start-on-weekday nil)
            (org-agenda-span 2)
            (org-agenda-overriding-header "\n2 day work
view\n-----------------\n")))))))

Given the sample file below:

* Top heading with tags
:@work:admin:
** Next heading (inherited tags)
   SCHEDULED: <2017-09-04 Mon>
** Next heading (explicit tags)
:@work:admin:
   SCHEDULED: <2017-09-04 Mon>

The agenda will only display headings that have the tag explicitly defined.
In this case, "Next heading (explicit tags)".

Is there a way I can convince the agenda to honour inherited tags in this
case?

Cheers,

Adrian

  You write a more appropriate function and use it as
  `org-agenda-skip-function'. It could re-use the following snippet:
  
    (not (member "@work" (org-split-string (org-entry-get (point) "ALLTAGS"))))

    I think the function org-get-tags-at should also be helpful here.

      Thanks for the pointers. This is what I came up with:
      
      (defun abradd-agenda-tags-inherited (tags)
        (let (beg end m)
          (org-back-to-heading t)
          (setq beg (point)
                end (progn (outline-next-heading) (1- (point))))
          (goto-char beg)
          (and
            (not (member tags (org-get-tags-at)))
            end)))
      
      I copied mostly from org-agenda-skip-if. It isn't very versatile, but works
      for now.

    TIL about ALLTAGS and other Special Properties.
    
    That org-split-string though needs the separator argument though, right?
    
    (org-split-string (org-entry-get (point) "ALLTAGS") ":")
