timestamped items not showing in today agenda view

timestamped items not showing in today agenda view

[Ken Mankoff]

Hi,

I have an issue where items that are scheduled with a timestamp don't
show up in an agenda view.

I have the following three views:

(tags-todo "+DEADLINE<=\"<+3d>\"")
(tags-todo "+SCHEDULED<=\"<today>\"")
(agenda "")

If I have items:

* Foo
  SCHEDULED: <2012-12-20 12:34>
* Bar
  DEADLINE: <2012-12-20 12:35>

Bar shows up in the DEADLINE search and agenda. Foo does NOT show up
in SCHEDULED search, but does show up in Agenda.
If I change <today> to <+0d>  there is no change. If I change it to
<+1d> then Foo does show up, but so does stuff scheduled tomorrow.

Is this a bug? How can I get items with timestamps to show up both in
(agenda "") and in the tags-todo search?

Thanks,

   -k.

Can you tell what is the value of these variables?

org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines 	
org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled
org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp 	
org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date
org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options

There is surely some interaction you don't expect?

HTH,

At the time I wrote that email they were all unset, so default 
values. I tried setting them all to nil and t, and neither had any 
effect. Scheduled item with timestamp shows up in (agenda) but not 
(tags-todo) search

   -k.

Can you send a minimal .org file and a minimal .el configuration file
that let us reproduce the problem with emacs -Q ?

Otherwise it will be difficult to debug.  

Thanks in advance for your effort!

Hi List,

Just to follow up on this, Bastien helped me figure it out off-list.

The solution is to use <now> or <tomorrow> in place of <today>, and
some combination of < or <= depending on exactly what you want to see
where and when.

  -k.
