Re: Adding a due date to actions in mGSD
Forget it... In the end, I merged a mgtdListEnhanced macro with the added parameter: withParentTag:yes which adds parent.title into tagExpr for evaluation. This way, only Tiddlers tagged with the name of the Tiddler where the mgtdListEnhanced resides, are listed. see http://thinkcreatesolve.biz/mGSDMeetingEnhancements.html#mgtdListEnhanced for the code. Thanks for the pointers tho!!!

Re: Adding a due date to actions in mGSD
Some corrections: - newButtonTags: will add the project/action/meeting/etc. 's title regardless. So the [[%0]] there doesn't actually seem to do anything. - When specifying a tag with spaces in it, you need to say: tags:[(Some Spaced Out Tag)] rather than: tags:[[Some Spaced Out Tag]] ... I did not previously know this!

Regarding the issue about how to do where:[[specific project/tag/contact/etc]] in a mgtdList ... When used in a "newButtonTags:" line, the parameter [[%0]] refers to the project (or meeting or action etc.) name. I've found there is a tiddler.isTagged('string') function (I'm sure a lot of you knew this... bear with me!) Using newButtonTags:'[[%0]]' does indeed tag a new tiddler with %0. However, in "where:", using any variation of [[%0]], with/without square brackets, curly brackets, single/double quotes, curly's around the whole line, etc. DOES NOT work! and yet this does: So how do I get the value of %0 into a variable or parameter that "where:" can use? That would solve a whole boatload of issues for me!

Re: Adding a due date to actions in mGSD
Hi, try putting this into a tiddler: <> It seems to work for me. Thanks for the Due Date hack.

Re: Adding a due date to actions in mGSD
"Javi" graciously answered my question above ... Add this to any of your dashboards for a great view of overdue actions: {{highlight{ <> }}} (Oh, and yes, I saw that I spelled my own name wrong!

Adding a due date to actions in mGSD
I know it's not strict GTD, but I use mGSD in my life as a Sr. Project Manager, as well as for my own tasks, and I do have a need for due dates. Things blow up if they're not on time. The problem with making an action into a tickler is that you lose a lot of the details and visibiltiy in dashboards, etc. So, I took a bit of the TitleButtons from Ticklers, and put them into the TitleButtons for Actions... 1. Edit the TitleButtons tiddler 2. Scroll down to !Actions 3. Look for: ...and change it by adding a line above the , so it looks like this: Due date: Pleasantly, I was surprised to find that if you give an Action a due-date this way, it turns into the "Tickle" date if you do click "make tickler", and the date is preserved if you go back and forth from Tickler to Action! Very nice, Simon! If someone could help me highlight overdue tasks in MgtdList views, it would be really appreciated! (And if I have time to work on it, I'll put it in this thread).
