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". "- 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")))
i assume my syntax is wrong?
thx!

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

"XYZ_ALL" is a special property defining allowed values for "XYZ". In
you case, you will get completion for "Effort" with:
:Effort: %^{Effort}p

[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
