Special {tag:value} pairs

{due:2020-04-30}

List of special tags:

tag description example
f Favorite {f}
due Due date {due:2020-05-15}
overdue Oldest overdue date (only for recurring tasks). Added automatically. {overdue:2020-05-15}
cm Completion date {cm:2020-05-15}
cr Creation date {cr:2020-05-15}
h (hidden) Task is not visible in Tree Views and webview (unless due) {h}
c (collapsed) State of folding in Tree View or webview for nested tasks {c}
count Instead of completing the task increases count by 1. When the number matches the goal - the task is considered completed {count:0/3}
start Datetime when task was started {start:2021-04-08T16:17:15}
duration After completing task with {start} tag - calculate task duration {duration:1h2m}

Recurring due date

Recurring due dates should not be archived and their completion state should be reset every day.

# Recurring due date that is due every monday:
{due:monday}
# Short form:
{due:mon}
# Recurring date that is due every 2nd day (starting date required)
{due:2020-06-28|e2d}
# Recurring date that is due every 2nd month at the 31th (or last day of the month if it has less than 31 days)
{due:2020-02-31|e2m}
# Recurring date that is due every 2nd year at the last day of Feb
{due:2020-02-31|e2y}

Multiple recurring due dates ,

# Is due every Sunday and Monday
{due:mon,sun}
