[O] Filter by tags issues

2015-02-27 Thread Chris Henderson
I'm having an annoying issue with filter by tag. I filter everything that has @computer, process one item and send it to the archive file; as soon as I archive it, the next item on the list pops up - this item might be a @home item. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks.

[O] Tag filter inheritence

2014-12-09 Thread Chris Henderson
When I filter by tag (C-c / m) for, say, @internet, the tag for the parent also shows up (which might have a different tag, say, @errands). Is there any way to see _only_ tags that have @internet and filter out tags inherited from the parent?
