Re: [O] using org-global-properties in capture templates
Hello, It looks like you have one too many parenthesis around the Rating entry. org-global properties is supposed to be a list of cons cells. The below should work: #+BEGIN_SRC elisp (setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL". "- Indian Thai Vietnamese Asian Chinese Israeli Italian American EastEuro Mexican French Persian Austrian Greek Fusion"))) (add-to-list 'org-global-properties '("Rating_ALL". "- 1 2 3 4 5")) #+END_SRC Below is a version that worked for me with all three properties. I declare the properties all in one list instead of adding them. #+BEGIN_SRC elisp (setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL". "- Indian Thai Vietnamese Asian Chinese Israeli Italian American EastEuro Mexican French Persian Austrian Greek Fusion") ("Effort_ALL" . "0 0:10 0:20 0:30 1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00 6:00 8:00") ("Rating_ALL" . "- 1 2 3 4 5"))) (setq org-capture-templates '(("f" "Food" entry (file+headline "~/tmp/tmp.org" "Inbox") "* COOK %^{Recipe Name} :PROPERTIES: :ID: %(org-id-uuid) :Time: %^{minutes|-|10|15|30|60} :Effort: %^{Effort}p :Rating: %^{Rating}p :Cuisine: %^{Cuisine}p :END: " "Capture Template for food recipe"))) #+END_SRC HTH, Adrian On 22 November 2017 at 04:52, Xebar Saram wrote: > Hi all > > sorry to nudge but after spending alot of time on this , googling etc cant > seem to get it to work. any help, tips or pointing me in the right > direction would really be appreciated! > > Z > > On Sat, Nov 4, 2017 at 5:31 PM, Xebar Saram wrote: > >> sorry to bother again but still stuck with this >> >> i tried to add another org-global-property entry (i assume thats >> possible) but then i didnt get completion for the second one. >> this is what i used >> >> (setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL".

thx so much that works well. i tried to add another org-global-property entry (i assume thats possible) but then i didnt get completion for the second one. this is what i used (setq org-global-properties '(("Cuisine_ALL".

[O] using org-global-properties in capture templates
Hi all so i just discovered today the org-global-properties im still strugling to understand how to use it in a capture template currently i use the %^{prompt} option to quick select from a list of items as following (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates '("ff" "Food" entry (file+headline (lambda () (concat pmm "/org/files/agenda/food.org")) "Inbox") "* COOK %^{Recipe Name} :PROPERTIES: :ID: %(org-id-uuid) :Time: %^{minutes|-|10|15|30|60} :END: " "Capture Template for food recipe" )) i have many of these captures and if i change 1 property i need to change all capture templates. from what i understand the org-global-properties will allow me to define it once and use it in all capture templates. yet i cant understand how. following the manual i tried this ;; Effort and global properties (setq org-global-properties '(("Effort_ALL". "0 0:10 0:20 0:30 1:00 2:00 3:00 4:00 6:00 8:00"))) (add-to-list 'org-capture-templates '("f" "Food" entry (file+headline (lambda () (concat pmm "/org/files/agenda/food.org")) "Inbox") "* COOK %^{Recipe Name} :PROPERTIES: :ID: %(org-id-uuid) :Effort_ALL: %^{Effort_ALL}p :END: " "Capture Template for food recipe" )) yet when i get to the Effort_ALL part it dosent prompt me for options. i assume im doing it wrong. can anyone point me in the right direction? thx Z
