Re: [O] org-ref, html-export, bibtex url, webpage

[John Kitchin]

Maybe it isn't in customization. Try C-h v bibtex-BibTeX-entry-alist

bibtex-BibTeX-entry-alist is a variable defined in `bibtex.el'.

You have to set it with some elisp code.

Thanks, John, for your hint.
I am able to find bibtex-biblatex-entry-alist but not the 
bibtex-BibTeX-entry-alist in the Bibtex customization group.

I am pretty sure you cannot use entry types that are not defined in 
bibtex-BibTeX-entry-alist or bibtex-biblatex-entry-alist. You can add types to 
those variables to get them to work.

TIL about ALLTAGS and other Special Properties.

That org-split-string though needs the separator argument though, right?

[O] asymmetry between org-backward-sentence and org-forward-sentence around headings

[Mat Vibrys]

  Org file looks like following:

  * heading
my line.

  when cursor is at beginning of file, `org-forward-sentence' goes to the
end of "my line.", which does not seem to be correct (heading is special
outline). Then calling `org-backward-sentence' behaves correctly, ie it
goes to the beginning of "my line.".

  To workaround the problem I kept on inserting dot at the end of each
heading. Until yesterday where I wanted to add link to heading from another
file. When dot is at the end of heading, then adding dot to the end of link
does not work.

  file:./fil.org::heading.

  correct behavior of `org-forward-sentence' would probably fix the
problem, ie I could remove dots from ends of all the headings

regards,
Mat

You can mark items with "M" and then do a bulk reschedule.

The key sequence for the bulk rescheduling is "B s".

Not sure whether this helps or not but a period is specified using two
hyphen characters: <...>--<...>

thanks to both of you for the hints -- I have my dates in the headlines
themselves for various reasons, so I think I have to write a quick export
filter to remove them from the  ics output. Running a little short o ntime
for the start of class (!) but maybe in the next week or s; if I get it to
work I'll report back.

[O] SCHEDULE duration not honored in iCalender export

[Warren Lynn]

Emacs 24.5.1, Org-mode 9.1, Windows 7

If I have task like this:
* Spring break
   SCHEDULED: <2018-03-30 Fri>-<2018-04-06 Fri>

I would see "Spring break" listed in the daily agenda for each day between
the starting and ending date in the "SCHEDULED" line. However, the exported
".ics" file only puts one entry for the starting date, which neither
correctly reflects the task nor be consistent with the daily org agenda
view.

Thanks for looking into it.

[O] changing individual agenda items dates, en-bloc?

[Sharon Kimble]

How can I change individual items in my agenda so that although they may
have a date of 2017-09-01 and be repeated daily but haven't been
accessed in the intervening time period, I can easily change it to miss
out all the unexpired dates and be rescheduled for a date of my choosing
please?

I seem to remember that there was some way, either through a add-on
package or a sequence of commands, but I can't seem to find it now.

Thanks
Sharon.

org does not support multi-row/column cells in tables.  When you say:

what do you mean?  If I edit your example, org does not recognise it as
a table (or, at least, not a properly defined one).
