Hi Florian, This code looks useful and an improvement over the previous setup I was using. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-05/msg01218.html
Can you explain what else is needed for your code to work? Currently I have #+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp (setq org-archive-location (concat org-directory "/archive/%s_archive::")) #+END_SRC But I don't see things archived as subtrees with just this. Do I need new/different configuration to work with your code? Thanks, -k. * On 2014-08-04 at 15:29, Florian Adamsky wrote: > Dear all, > > some of my org-mode files are getting bigger and bigger.
