DEADLINE: <2018-05-01 Di> SCHEDULED: <2018-04-21 Sa +1y>
DEADLINE: <2018-11-10 Sa> SCHEDULED: <2018-11-03 Sa +1y>

So is that working only by sheer luck?


Definitely. Planning info is a single line, right below the heading.
Most related code relies on that assumption.

Thanks for clarifying, I will adjust and use multiple tasks.

Hello,

it looks like

Sheer luck, I would say.


* TODO task
SCHEDULED: <2017-12-14 Do>
DEADLINE: <2017-12-14 Do>

will still find the SCHEDULED tinestamp but no more the DEADLINE.
I had this sequence in my org templates in the past and had no issues as far as 
I remember.
Has this behaviour changed?


I cannot remember Org supporting this syntax, actually. I don't think
anything changed.


Freshly creating a new SCHEDULED and DEADLINED timestamp results in the 
structure below.
Do all tasks now need to have both items in the same line like here:

* TODO task
SCHEDULED: <2017-12-14 Do> DEADLINE: <2017-12-14 Do>


They do, but it's not new.

You are not missing something.  As the manual says:

 A timestamp may be preceded by special keywords to facilitate
 planning.  Both the timestamp and the keyword have to be positioned
 immediately after the task they refer to.

I guess immediately means not even a blank line.


Hi,

it looks like

* TODO task
DEADLINE: <2017-12-14 Do>
SCHEDULED: <2017-12-14 Do>

will find the DEADLINE and SCHEDULE timestamp and display correctly in the 
agenda while

* TODO task
SCHEDULED: <2017-12-14 Do>
DEADLINE: <2017-12-14 Do>

will still find the SCHEDULED tinestamp but no more the DEADLINE.

[O] DEADLINE ignored?

2017-09-04 Thread Pdj

Hello, I am observing this (funky?) behavior:
in the agenda, the deadline seems to be identified only if it 
immediately follows the headline, and it is ignored otherwise.

Am I missing something?   Thank you, Paolo.


1) DEADLINE is identified and used.

** TODO Phone call
DEADLINE: <2017-09-06 Wed>
Maria's bill

-> agenda
capture:In   2 d.:  TODO Phone call   [<2017-09-06 Wed>]


2) DEADLINE is ignored

** TODO Phone call
Maria's bill
DEADLINE: <2017-09-06 Wed>

-> agenda
nothing


3) DEADLINE is ignored

** TODO Phone call

DEADLINE: <2017-09-06 Wed>
Maria's bill

-> agenda
nothing
