Are #orgmode statistic cookies not persistent? I close a task and it says like [2/4], save the file, open it up … still the same so ok. Some time later I stumble upon this and get [0/0] although the state of the subtasks didn‘t change. #emacs#followerpower
I dreamed about using #emacs and #orgmode. I even remember the specific thing I was trying to do:
You have a top-level heading, and you want to cut it and paste it (or, to use classic emacs terminology, kill and yank) under a lower-level heading elsewhere.
If you just copy and paste, putting the higher-level heading into the lower-level one will mess up the structure below it. My dreaming self wanted to avoid that.
Now my waking self is answering the question. 😄
You can use M-x org-paste-subtree directly; or, you can just use a regular C-y to yank and if you have the variable org-yank-adjusted-subtrees
whew glad I figured that out. I guess my subconscious is deeply concerned about this problem...
This has been your oneiric org-mode public service announcement for today...
I know that probably has been there for a while, but have never activated it! :ablobattention:
Do you also use #orgRoam ?
This is a core node with an index, not sure if I should use it or link nodes differently.. but comes handy and can always disable it with filters :abloblamp:
Today I read up on #OrgMode’s capture of #RSS feeds. An interesting extensible feature that I hadn’t considered but am now going to let rattle around in my subconcious.
So after ten or so attempts at finding a good #kanban board for personal projects I'm throwing the towel. I'm going back to #Obsidian (or maybe #orgmode, if I ever decide to reinstall Emacs) and just using #Markdown and checkboxes (headers for epics, emojis for priorities).
Everything else just feels like overkill. Maybe good for managing teams, but either unwieldy and inflexible or too vague for personal stuff.
Currently I have 57M' of .org files in ~/org. That's 5005' files and 1205964' lines of text, the largest single file is 1.3M' and the longest lined file has 26370' lines. 4835' are inside org-roam, the majority (`3655') are "dailies".
I've decided I'm sick of #nextcloud file sync errors with #orgzly and have decided to just manually commit versions with #mgit.
I tried #metanote also but it doesn't seem to be well supported on #android
#orgmode how can I force export for a single file to default to "nearest level 2 heading"? I always want to export current tree but only up to level 2.
Hey org-mode users, what export options have you found are best for ultimately getting into google docs (where you are adding on to an existing doc, not uploading net new)? I usually export to odt, then copy paste, but, it's always trashy. Lots of weird extra white space and bullet points that aren't handled well and need manual cleaning. Humm, maybe I need to re-train myself to export to html and copy paste that. On this last test, that seemed to produce much better result.
I’ve been revamping my #orgmode setup on #Emacs, specifically org-agenda and org-todo. I miss the full integration between org-contact and org-agenda for birthdays in agenda view, and it seems to be the cause of a version mismatch - I’m using Emacs 27, default to #Slackware 15
This incompatibility probably causes the error, a silly one where ‘date’ is a void variable within the ‘org-contacts-anniversaries’ function.
Wrote a post providing some hard-learned guidance on defining tasks in #OrgMode. There are so many ways to define a task but some work better than others, particularly with agenda views.
November already, which means #adventofcode is around the corner! Time to try and hype up some coworkers and decide on which language to use. #Clojure? Or should I give #eLisp another try? Or should I take an easier route and use #PHP this time? Or #Golang, which I started working with this week? Choices 😱
One thing is certain though... it will involve literate programming in #orgmode.
For the entire time I've been using #Emacs, I never used (or wanted) any kind of spell-checking. That is changing now that I'm using it a lot more to write notes/documentation with #OrgMode / #OrgRoam.
Ideally I want to only do spell-checking on comments, when editing code, and similar configurability for Org documents.
What is the recommended method for something like that in 2024 (on macOS, if that makes any difference)?
So excited that I was able to write a blog post in #orgmode#emacs and publish it to my #classicpress blog from within orgmode! The new post ain't much to look at, and there's no content to speak of. Just a proof of concept. And it proofed!
The more I learn #Emacs, the more I think I should've started way earlier.
I'm using only #OrgMode, to create and manage my digital garden, but I've already learnt a good set of useful commands, my digital garden is automagically converted from Org Mode into HTML with a nice CSS, I've even integrated Japanese furigana and PlantUML!
And I'm sharing back all my current learnings, using the digital garden itself: https://marcoxbresciani.codeberg.page/emacs/orgmode/orgmode.html
Have a nice reading, and give me feedbacks! 🙏🏻
