Hi,
I am working with cyclic or repetitive tasks in org-mode, inside this task,
I have several checkboxes. So when I finished all the list, normally I put
the task as done, and new task with sublist of checkboxes is created for
the next cycle, however, those checkboxes appears as ticked and I think
should be unticked as it is new cycle task, e.g.:
* TODO Cyclic monthly home [0/5]
SCHEDULED: <2013-11-30 Sat +1m>
- [ ] pay sauna
- [ ] pay electricity
- [ ] pay renting
- [ ] pay internet
- [ ] pay union
Once I ticked all of them and put it as done, this is what I can see:
* WIP Cyclic monthly home [5/5]
SCHEDULED: <2014-01-30 Thu +1m>
- State "DONE" from "WIP" [2013-11-06 Wed 20:49]
:PROPERTIES:
:LAST_REPEAT: [2013-11-06 Wed 20:49]
:END:
- [X] pay sauna <--- this should be unticked
- [X] pay electricity <-- this should be unticked
- [X] pay renting <-- this should be unticked
- [X] pay internet <-- this should be unticked
- [X] pay union <-- this should be unticked
Am I missing something? or is some bug that should be fixed?
I am using those versions:
Emacs version:
GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2013-08-30 on apocalipsis
Org-mode version:
Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef @
/usr/local/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/)

Hi Borja,
I can't see that you have received a reply yet, which is unusual for
this excellent list.

May be use this:
;; uncheck tick boxes -----------
(require 'org-checklist)
(defun my-uncheck-ticks()
"Uncheck tick boxes in the TODO item when state is changed to DONE"
( when (and (string= org-state "DONE")
(org-get-repeat))
(org-reset-checkbox-state-subtree)))
(add-hook 'org-after-todo-state-change-hook
'my-uncheck-ticks)

Org 8 is out, may be time to upgrade?

Thanks for answer.
I already got another answer from stackoverflow, where I ask exactly the
same question, is here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20164918/how-to-untick-checkboxes-in-org-mode-for-the-next-cyclic-repetitive-task
But basically the solution it was include this:
:PROPERTIES:
:RESET_CHECK_BOXES: t
:END:
and of course (require 'org-checklist) should be included in .emacs
configuration file.
Again, thanks for the answer.
Regards,
Borja Tarraso
