Conflict between implicit due date in recurrence phrase and reminder time (e.g. "every Friday at noon") #116

Closed idpaterson closed 8 years ago

It is possible to specify a due date and recurrence with an expression like "every Friday" (i.e. due next Friday, repeating weekly). However, when combined with a reminder time the due date is set to today.

For example, today is Thursday; the phrase "every Friday at 8:30AM" should create a task due tomorrow (Friday) with a reminder at 8:30AM on Friday. However, the task has a due date of today (Thursday) with a reminder today at 8:30AM.

The recurrence is still weekly, but the due date is incorrect. The same behavior can be seen with any phrase of this form, such as "every June."

Workaround

The simple workaround is to use an explicit keyword for the reminder time, such as every Friday r 8:30AM.
