Event `task:stateChange` isn't fired for "external" tasks

[sirlancelot]

On a page make some tasks:

- [ ] task 1 #shopping
- [ ] task 2 #shopping
- [ ] task 3 #shopping

On a different page, fetch those tasks:

External tasks below:

`` `template
{{#each {task where tags = "shopping"}}}
- [{{state}}] [[{{ref}}]] {{name}}
{{/each}}
`` `

When completing the task on the different page, a related "task:stateChange" event is not fired.

But then even is triggered when you actually complete those tasks on that other page, right? What is your use case for having the event also be triggered on pages where these tasks are merely queried?

But they aren't merely queried. The tasks can be completed from within the query.

The event doesn't seem to fire at all when checking off a task from within a query.

I realize it may be difficult to do what I want to do, but on my daily note page I have a query showing all tasks due that day, and I want to be able to mark it complete and have the event append ✅ {{today}} to the source task.

Ah, when you toggle the box in the query. Ok right. I think I can make that happen.

Possibly unrelated, but the remote toggle example on https://silverbullet.md/Plugs/Tasks (under "Rendering") doesn't work for me either.

[zefhemel]

@argus-core right, yeah that's a bit misleading there. It doesn't work because silverbullet.md is running in read-only mode. I should remove that example probably.
