Recurring Tasks Tutorial

Recurring tasks automate repetitive tasks - after completing a task, the system automatically creates the next one based on configured rules. New tasks are created below the original task and inherit all its properties.

You can set rules to configure the start date and due date for new tasks.

Setup Steps

1. Click the task menu
2. Select "Recurring Config"
3. Configure rules:
   • Start Date Rule: Start date recurrence rule
   • Due Date Rule: Due date recurrence rule
4. Enter rules (e.g., 1w, 1m)
5. Save

Rule Syntax

By default, new tasks are created based on the current task's completion time.

1d           # Next day
1w           # Next Monday
1w3d         # Next Thursday (next Monday + 3 days)
1m           # 1st of next month
2m-1d        # Last day of next month
1y           # January 1st of next year
1y4m2w-1d    # Second Sunday of May next year (Mother's Day)

Custom Base Time

You can add a prefix to the rule to modify the base time. If the task doesn't have a start time or due time set, it will be calculated based on the task completion time.

start:1d     # Calculate based on task start time
due:1d       # Calculate based on task due time
