Re: [O] Active timestamp drawer with inactive creation-date

 The property drawer has an active time-stamp, which in turn appears
 in my agenda. What I want to end up is, an inactive time-stamp in
 the drawer:

 ** important task 2013-03-13 Wed
:PROPERTIES:
:CREATED:  [2013-03-12 Tue 13:52]
:END:

 At the moment I change it by hand, but laziness is the key to
 progress, so: how do I do this?

I think you want this: (setq org-expiry-inactive-timestamps t)

HTH,

Alexander must be using org-expiry.el from the contrib/ directory.

Best,

Thank you for the hint to org-expiry, Bastien.

Maybe this link is helpful as well:

Thank you all!

(setq org-expiry-inactive-timestamps t)

was the key. 

I will do some more reading this weekend, but for now everything works as 
expected (again). Thanks for the answers, the stackoverflow link, and the 
Heinlein.

[O] Active timestamp drawer with inactive creation-date

[Alexander Poslavsky]

Hi!

I actively use timestamps to plan my day. When I have a task, I add a 
time-stamp to it with C-. Then I plan the task, for example, for tomorrow. I 
end up with:

** important task 2013-03-13 Wed
   :PROPERTIES:
   :CREATED:  2013-03-12 Tue 13:52
   :END:

The property drawer has an active time-stamp, which in turn appears in my 
agenda. What I want to end up is, an inactive time-stamp in the drawer:

** important task 2013-03-13 Wed
   :PROPERTIES:
   :CREATED:  [2013-03-12 Tue 13:52]
   :END:

do I do this?

Thanks, Alex

How do you create the :CREATED: property with the active timestamp?
