[FEATURE] TODO creation with start date or due date entry

Open AWSBarker opened this issue 6 months ago • 6 comments

I started to use TODO views and found them very useful when linked to my OwnCloud tasks. However if I create a new TODO the default seems to add no dates like a start or end date.

Describe the solution you'd like

I realise TODO's might not have dates like Tasks but it would be nice at least to set a default of start date as today.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Currently I create a TODO then use owncloud or my android tasks to add dates.

Thanks

The reminder date is the due date.

Ah, OK thanks Patrizio,

I see that works within qownotes but I sync with tasks from owncloud and task.org (android) and those tasks due date/reminder date don't show in qownotes, only when I click the reminder date from qownnotes. However once I created a due date/reminder in qownnotes it seems I can edit elsewhere and it sync in qownotes.

CalDAV is a nightmare, every application has their own interpretation of what to set or read. That's why I switched to Nextcloud Deck.

In QOwnNotes the due date is taken for Nextcloud compatibility.

So what is currently set by owncloud and task.org?

For task.org there also was https://github.com/pbek/QOwnNotes/issues/2794.

So what is currently set by owncloud and task.org?

The QOwnNotes.sqlite database (path, see Debug settings) contains the raw iCal data in table calendarItem, column ics_data.
