Automatic moving of tasks by status change #350

Closed cboehm-it closed 2 years ago

cboehm-it commented 2 years ago

Process: I change the status of a task from new to done (ALT+D)

Expected behavior: The task will be marked as done and moved to category done.

Observed behavior: The task remains in category new.

Plugin version: v4.18.4

The extension has no context of done/new categories. At most done task will be moved to the archive, there's a command for that, "Todo: Archive".

cboehm-it commented 2 years ago

Okay than I turn my request into a question. What is the background of "Done" then? Should I copy paste my done tasks into "Done:" manually? That seems not really useful to my mind. grafik

Archive is also just a category, right?

fabiospampinato commented 2 years ago

The archive is a special project that the extension understands about.

The extension just doesn't support moving tasks to arbitrary categories according to arbitrary logics.
