That means one of the commands called by `org-shiftleft' failed.


Thanks for your response.

It does not appear that `org-shiftleft' is called at all in agenda buffers now. 
The `org-agenda-do-date-earlier'. C-h k S-left gives me:

```
 runs the command org-agenda-do-date-earlier (found in
org-agenda-mode-map), which is an interactive compiled Lisp function
in ‘org-agenda.el’.

It is bound to , C-c C-x ,  
 .

(org-agenda-do-date-earlier ARG)

Not documented.
```

`org-agenda.el' has `(org-defkey org-agenda-mode-map [(shift left)] 
'org-agenda-do-date-earlier)` rather than a call to `org-shiftleft'.

I agree that the expected behavior would be for `org-shiftleft' to be called 
here and to call `org-agenda-do-date-earlier' when not overridden.

I previously asked a question about this on emacs-orgmode but it seems 
more likely that this is a bug.


https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2018-02/msg00183.html

I am bulk re-scheduling items in an agenda view. I would like all the 
selected items to be re-scheduled to a year later from their current 
scheduled date. The org manual 
 seems to indicate this 
is possible using double plus:


> Schedule all items to a new date. To shift existing schedule dates by

When I try this, however, I always get re-scheduling from the current 
date. I am using Org mode version 9.1.6 (9.1.6-48-gfe7619-elpa). Here's 
how to reproduce:


1. Create minimal.org.el:

(setq debug-on-error t
  debug-on-signal nil
  debug-on-quit nil)
(add-to-list 'load-path "c:/Users/micha/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20180212")

2. emacs.exe -Q -l minimal-org.el

3. Create a test.org buffer:

* TODO Task
  SCHEDULED: <2018-01-01 Mon>

4. Add it to the agenda files list with C-c [.

5. M-x org-agenda RET t results in

Global list of TODO items of type: ALL
Available with ‘N r’: (0)[ALL] (1)TODO (2)DONE
  test:   TODO Task

6. Move down to TODO Task and type m to mark

7. B s (bulk schedule). The minibuffer will state:

(Re)Schedule to Date+time [2018-02-11]: [cursor] => <2018-02-11 Sun>

8. ++1y. The right part of the minibuffer now states

<2019-02-11 Mon>

I expected <2019-01-01 Tue>

9. RET.

The task is now rescheduled to <2019-02-11 Mon> rather than <2019-01-01

Org-syntax requires planning info (SCHEDULED, DEADLINE) to be on its own

certain syntax will work properly.


Thanks Matt. Is there a supported way to have planning info show up on 
the same line as the headline in the org file itself (rather than in an 
agenda)? This can be very handy when organizing a lot of items to have 
them all show up on the screen.


Or at least to have only the planning info show up and not other

[O] Rescheduling timestamps on a headline (not the next line)

[Michael Hoffman]

I am using org-mode 8.2.10. I often like to keep SCHEDULED and DEADLINE 
timestamps on the headline so they are more compact and show up even 
when I have collapsed that tree. Unfortunately, in this case, 
(org-schedule) and (org-deadline) add a new timestamp on the second line 
instead of replacing the previous schedule.


Steps to reproduce:

1. Visit new file `test.org`
2. Enter `* Task SCHEDULED: <2015-09-19>` in the buffer
3. C-c C-s for (org-schedule)
4. S-right to select 2015-09-20
5. RET

Output:

* Task SCHEDULED: <2015-09-19>
  SCHEDULED: <2015-09-20 Sun>

What I expected:

* Task SCHEDULED: <2015-09-20 Sun>

Is there a way to get my expected output? (org-add-planning-info) seems 
to go to the end of the headline:


(org-back-to-heading t)
(looking-at (concat org-outline-regexp "\\( *\\)[^\r\n]*"))
(goto-char (match-end 1))
(setq col (current-column))
(goto-char (match-end 0))

Before it starts looking for text to replace.

Many thanks,

Bug report for 8.2.3c:

When org-agenda-sorting-strategy is set to deadline-up (or similar
values), the Global Todo list always places non-timestamped entries at
the beginning, even when org-sort-agenda-notime-is-late is true.  This
is inconsistent with the behavior when org-agenda-sorting-strategy is
time-up.

I believe the problem is that the org-cmp-ts function copied a line from
the older org-cmp-time function:
(def (if org-sort-agenda-notime-is-late 9901 -1))

9901 is later than all times of day, but not later than all date/time
stamps.


I get this too on org 8.2.4. Replacing 9901 with most-positive-fixnum 
fixes the problem.

It looks like you're looking for `org-list-make-subtree' (C-c C-*) and
then replacing [CBON] with DONE and [CBOFF] with TODO.

If it's something else, could you explain it with an example?


Try this:

** TODO x
  - [ ] x1
  - [ ] x2
- [ ] x2.1

Set the region to the checkbox lines, then do C-c C-*. The result is:

** TODO x
*** [ ] x1
*** [ ] x2
*** [ ] x2.1

If you set a macro to do each line individually and move down, you 
instead get:


** TODO x
*** [ ] x1
 [ ] x2
* [ ] x2.1

I would regard the correct conversion to be:

** TODO x
*** [ ] x1
*** [ ] x2
 [ ] x2.1

I'm using Emacs 23.1.3 and org-mode 6.21b.

Well, the commands:

convert the checkboxes to headings but eliminate the hierarchy.

I've also tried regex-searching for something like "^   - \[ \]" -> "***

I guess we can keep the hierarchy with an appropriate search and replace

like keeping a log of the actions I've completed, but I don't like them 
in the same file taking up space. Previously I have moved completed TODO 
items and checkboxes to another log file manually. Is there a good way 
of doing this automatically? Do you have any other suggestions for how 
to keep a log of done tasks while removing the cruft left over from the 
current list?
