Maybe this will be useful to you. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2017-12/msg00626.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2018-01/msg00000.html You will have to modify the code since IIRC the linked code only matches by heading and not body. > > -- > Thanks > David >
