But it does not trigger the insertion of CLOSED:the-date It probably has to do with the fact that you haven't put a | anywhere so only the WAITING type is one that indicates a completed task? Look at the Workflow states section of the manual. Something like this might work better for you: #+TODO: TODO NEXT IN-PROGRESS NOTES FIXME | WAITING DONE Note the move of DONE to the end and the addition of |. The important thing about the move of DONE is not that it be last but that it be placed after the |. -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 24.4.50.1, Org release_8.3beta-246-g77d0da

[O] How to get cookies working with TODOs?
I'm trying to get cookies working with TODO items. The source document is a book I'm writing and is an outline of each section and chapters so that I can see what is still to be done. I'm writing it in latex but doing the outline in orgs-mode. --8---cut here---start-8--- * TODO CHAPTER 1 - preface [0%] ** DONE Disclaimer CLOSED: [2014-07-30 Wed 23:49] ** DONE Introduction CLOSED: [2014-07-30 Wed 23:50] --8---cut here---end---8--- Following 5.5 Breaking tasks down into subtasks in the org.pdf I should be able to 'C-c C-c' on the cookie and it updates the cookie, except it doesn't work in this case. There are 5 sections which are all completed in this chapter, but the cookie doesn't update. --8---cut here---start-8--- * TODO CHAPTER 2 - preamble [0/11] [0%] :PROPERTIES: :COOKIE_DATA: todo recursive :END: ** DONE An overview of the endocrine system CLOSED: [2014-07-31 Thu 02:12] --8---cut here---end---8--- Like it shows on page 55. But the cookie doesn't update either in this case. So how can I get the cookies working please?
