I see. Something is missing on that comment "Use org-lint for a hint about how to modify your agenda file". /usr/share/emacs/26.1/etc/ORG-NEWS emacs 25.1 has org-version 8.2.10 Debian still have 24.5 as default emacs on debian strech. So this issue is going to arise again in the future. So just for the notice of future users. this: --8<---cut here---start->8--- #+CATEGORY: world cup --8<---cut here---end--->8--- should be changed to: --8<---cut here---start->8--- ** world cup (not showed on agenda view) :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: world cup :END: --8<---cut here---end--->8--- Regards

Hi Nicolas. > The correct syntax is > > ** groups > :PROPERTIES: > :CATEGORY: 0.6groups > :END: it worked. It also worked on emacs 23.4 with org-mode-version 6.33x > See (info "(org) Property Syntax") Thanks. For your help on solving this incompatibility. I would like to add a word here "discoverability". ¿What would have been the way a user should discover this incompatibility or obsolescense of the "#+CATEGORY"?. Actually I have seen this behaviour for more than two months time. because sometimes I use master. So this behaviour has more than two months or merged. But I think this could lead to an opportunity for explaning how a user should react to this change. On my case It have not been easy to find the right way of solving this. Regards

Hello, andrés ramírez writes: > ¿What would have been the way a user should discover this incompatibility > or obsolescense of the "#+CATEGORY"?. I would suggest that user to read the releases notes, located in ORG-NEWS files, in particular the "Incompatible changes" sections. This particular change was announced in Org 8.3. Also, this feature (multiple CATEGORY keywords) was strongly deprecated, as pointed out in the old manual, since Org 5.14 (2008). Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou0x80A93738
