after a task is toggled to complete we lost the priority #304

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

Hello, I consider this a problem because sometimes, after we complete a task if it is "recurrent", we want to toggle it back, to work it again, but the priority we set for this task is lost and we have set it up again and again.

Thank you, Esteban

Hi Esteban, This behavior is intended, and is part of the spec that the family of todo.txt apps implement. You would need to convince to community/Gina to change the spec.

Perhaps rather than completing the task then reopening it, you could change its due date?

Cheers,

Ben

Thank you for your quick response Ben :) , yes well I understand now why it's not so easy to change this, but if maybe this change could be added as optional? in a way that the user can chose if he wants to preserve task priority after completion, this option could be disable by default, so in that way we can still added to the original spec. thank you for share this tool and your work, I'm founding this tool really fun to use.

Thank you, Esteban

Portable version which retains priority at https://github.com/fleapower/todotxt.net/. It is based on jdckr's fork.
