If you post an example where org-datetree gets confused, we can improve
things on Org side.

Hi Ihor,

I figured out the problem.  Seems like date trees expect only list items
between date headlines.
I had been adding headlines between dates, and this seems to confuse the
insertion mechanism.  I now stick to list items and it works perfectly.
Might be a good idea to add something about this to the manual.

Thanks for following up.

Cheers,

Ian

Sorry for the late reply.
I am unable to reproduce the problem of the latest main.

incorrect indentation of new item inserted with capture template

[Ian Garmaise]

I have had this problem for several months.

I keep a daily journal.  Each morning I add a new entry in a journal file
using a capture template.  The journal file is always loaded.
On some occasions the indentation of the new entry is incorrect.

Here's an example of incorrect indentation:

*** 2021-12-05 Sunday

- item 1
- item 2

* 2021-12-06 Monday

What I usually do is undo the insertion and reissue the command.
This always works.

I had thought this might have been due to a mixed org installation, but
recently, I deleted org and reinstalled from org elpa with emacs -q

I have no other current issues.
This is the capture template:

 ("j" "Journal entry" plain
  (file+olp+datetree "~/Dropbox/org/journal.org")
  "%i\n%?\n" :time-prompt 1 :jump-to-captured 1)

I am happy to do any other testing that is needed.
