problems with org-protocol + capture templates

problems with org-protocol + capture templates

[Alvar Maciel]

Hi to all,
I'm using org-mode as personal day planner with almost all the
configuration of http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html
I try to use org-protocol to send links to emacs using the config of
worg. But when  emacs open i can not select the template of the
capture mode (it's weird months ago was working) and i don't  know
were is my mistake.
 this is my keybindidng

var orgProtoString = 'org-protocol://capture://'+
  encodeURIComponent(gBrowser.currentURI.spec) + '/' +
  encodeURIComponent(gBrowser.contentWindow.document.title) + '/' +
  encodeURIComponent(content.window.getSelection());

gBrowser.loadURI(orgProtoString);

my capture template

(setq org-capture-templates
      (quote (("t" "todo" entry (file "~/en uso/2013/org/refile.org")
               "* TODO %?\n%U\n%a\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
              ("r" "respond" entry (file "~/en uso/2013/org/refile.org")
               "* NEXT Respond to %:from on %:subject\nSCHEDULED:
%t\n%U\n%a\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t :immediate-finish t)
              ("n" "note" entry (file "~/en uso/2013/org/refile.org")
               "* %? :NOTE:\n%U\n%a\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
              ("j" "Journal" entry (file+datetree "~/Dropbox/en
uso/2013/org/diary.org")
               "* %?\n%U\n" :clock-in t :clock-resume t)
              ("w" "org-protocol" entry (file "~/en uso/2013/org/refile.org")
               "* TODO Review %c\n%U\n" :immediate-finish t)

AFAIK, no, you can't dynamically select your template. The default template
for org-protocol is bound to `w'. Though, you can change that for your Emacs
sessions.

I'm not using org-protocol anymore but I certainly *do* remember that
you can dynamically select a capture template.  

So maybe Alvar's issue needs some investigation.

I just had a problem with org-protocol not working. After plenty of
googling, reinstalling and fussing, I think that I solved it and I
believe that the problem was related that I was playing with different
Emacs versions in Ubuntu and momentarily I had no emacsclient. See for
example http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2092293

I use org-protocol with Chrome and Windows 8, emacs 24.3+ and some recent
Org mode.
I definitely can select the capture template.
I use emacsclientw.exe rather than emacs.exe to store the link.
It also means that emacs is already started and org-mode already loaded.

emacsclient don't creat a new frame by default, If you have no emacs
frame, org-protocol for firefox is nearly useless. I use a bash wrap
file "org-capture.sh" to launch emacs frame:

#+begin_src 
#!/bin/bash

set -efu

TEST=$(ps ax | grep "org-capture-for-firefox" | grep -v grep | wc -l)
if [ $TEST = 1 ] ; then
        exec emacsclient   $*;
	exit 0;
else
        exec emacsclient -c -a ''  -F '((name . "org-capture-for-firefox"))' $*
        exit 0;
fi

#+end_src
