Hello,

I found  a potential bug in org which I can reproduce with a 
minimal configuration.

I added some org-capture templates purely for clocking into tasks 
via the capture-menu. These capture templates are for things I 
want to time-track but don't want to create a special entry for 
(like eating and breaks), so I used the `plain' type with an empty 
`""' template hoping it would clock into the given olp:

(setq org-capture-templates
    '(( "c" "clock into")
        ("cu" "Unintended" plain
        (file+olp "~/org/clock_test.org" "Time sinks" 
        "Unintended")
        "" :clock-in t :clock-keep t :immediate-finish t)
        ("ce" "Eating" plain
        (file+olp "~/org/clock_test.org" "Time sinks" "Eating")
        "" :clock-in t :clock-keep t :immediate-finish t)))

My `clock_test.org' has the following headings:

* Time sinks
** Unintended
** Eating

*The BUG:* When I then run `org-capture' with "cu" to clock into 
 "Unintended", emacs actually clocks into "Eating". I get the same 
 with an file+headline configuration. I can reproduce it with 
 `emacs -q' where I just load the capture-template above.

My assumption is that the clock-in function expects that a new 
entry is created with the capture template and then it 
automatically clocks into the entry, but maybe clocking into the 
the parent olp of an empty plain entry is not the intended 
purpose. In any way, even if I didn't use it according to the 
intended purpose, I still think it's a bug that it clocks into the 
following heading.

I would suggest that if in the scope of the captured entry there 
is nothing to clock into, either clock into the parent or just 
give a warning that there is nothing to clock into.

By the way, unrelated to the bug, but if you have alternative 
ideas how I should achieve my goal of easily clocking into 
non-tasks I would be happy about suggestings. Maybe I could do 
something like a hydra menu with some small elisp-code, but I just 
thought using the existing capture-functionality should be 
simplest.

Below is my emacs and org configuration from 
`org-submit-bug-report' from my `emacs -q' session. I recently 
compiled the latest version of the feature/pgtk branch  and have 
native compilation enabled, which I used to compile the latest 
version of org, but I think the behavior that I observed.

Cheers,
Michael Eliachevitch

This is amazing. I have run into exactly the same problem. I was
wondering whether to report it!

Oh, and I can reproduce the bug with your ECM.

Thanks for reporting it.

Best wishes,

Colin Baxter.

Glad that I'm not alone. When you say you ran into this, is this 
something that appeared to you in a recent org-version for 
existing capture templates which worked in older versions? Or is 
this a behavior that has been always there for capture-templates 
with :clock-in?

When I have time I might try if I can hack something to fix this, 
but not sure if I have time as I'm quite busy with my PhD 
currently. Btw, I'm not sure what the procedure following the bug 
report will be, as I'm quite new here on the mailing list and am 
still more used to working with github-issues etc, but I guess 
patience is key in an open source project.

Cheers, Michael

A couple of night ago, I thought I'd try experimenting with my
org-capture setup. I normally have a menu with single letter choices and
no hierarchy. I wrote a couple of lines, very similar to yours, but
couldn't get it to work. I thought it simply indicative of my ignorance
of lisp (which is profound!) and abandoned the experiment. I use org-mode
version 9.5.1 and I got the same results with emacs-28.0.90, 29.0.50 and
(I think) 27.2.

If you get no response on this org-mode list, perhaps re-submit it as a
normal emacs bug (M-x report-emacs-bug <RET>).

Best wishes,

Colin.

That's not a good idea. org-mode related staff is just forwarded back to
this list (but not even always).

Just wait a bit until someone get free time to look into your report.

Best,
Ihor

Ah, I didn't know that - thanks.

Since the patch fixes the problem on my side, I just applied it
upstream.

Fixed.
Applied onto main via 5c14a1734.
