no annual agenda entries for repeater interval "year"

no annual agenda entries for repeater interval "year"

[Steffen Prochnow]

Hi,

I defined a repeater interval of one year, e.g., <2009-09-16 Wed +1y>,
for an existing headline item. Opening the agenda view this headline is
shown for the 2009-09-16. But, it's missing for any annual repetition,
i.e., there is no entry on 2010-09-16, 2011-09-16, etc.

Regards
Steffen Prochnow

...because you'll need to schedule the entry?
The entry has to be a TODO, and scheduled or a deadline. After you
switched it to DONE ('S-RIGHT'), the entry shows up as done this year,
and as TODO next year.
Note, that `S-RIGHT' will switch the state from TODO to STARTED to TODO again

    * TODO some headline
      SCHEDULED: <2009-09-16 Wed +1y>

C-RIGHT C-RIGHT

    * TODO Headline
      SCHEDULED: <2010-09-16 Do +1y> 
      - State "DONE"       from "STARTED"    [2009-09-17 Do 00:38]
      :LOGBOOK:
      :END:
      :PROPERTIES:
      :LAST_REPEAT: [2009-09-17 Do 00:38]
      :END:

Hi Steffen,

I cannot reproduce this, all those future dates show up just fine.
This behavior is regulated by the variable

org-agenda-repeating-timestamp-show-all

Re: no annual agenda entries for repeater interval "year"

I'm using org-mode for only a month, but I also had this problem (version
6.28e). I created some headlines for birthdays and other special dates with
active timestamps (not in the headline) that had a repeater of ++1y, but it only
appeared on the current year. After changing to ++12m everything worked
fine. However, seeing your E-Mail I decided to change it back to ++1y and it
worked.

I have the same symptoms as Steffen.  All other repeaters seem to work
but not +1y.  Most of my annual repeaters are defined with
diary-anniversary and they work fine.

Shifting the date by the specified time interval
(marking DONE) works for me!

I'm missing the repeated year entry in the agenda. E.g.,

* headline
SCHEDULED: <2009-09-17 Thu +12m>

produces repeated agenda entries for 2010-09-17, etc. But,

* headline
SCHEDULED: <2009-09-17 Thu +1y>

does not.

I also changed the repeater interval from +1y to +12m and reverse. But,
unfortunately without any effect on the agenda for expressions like +1y.

(Following the org-mode manual specifications like ++1y are different
from +1y. I do indeed want to express +1y.)

I set the variable to "t". But, the behavior didn't change and the
expected agenda repetitions are not shown for +1y. (All works fine for
+12m and for diary-anniversary entries).

Bernt obeserved the same point (he also uses Debian emacs).

Indeed, I believe now there was a bug, which is fixed now.  Please  
verify,
and also keep your eyes open if this change does break anything.

You too, Steffen, please!
