Hi Hubert and Peter, @Peter: I have no other solution for recurring reminders than setting the new date manually when you are done.
@Hubert At the time when I developed ToDoNow I had to build my own alert sytem that probably comes close to what you are looking for. See https://tid.li/tw5/tdn.html and click the double down arrow on the task in the Do section. An alert should appear to tell you that this task is late. Click the stop watch to change the deadline and see what happens. My sytem assumes that you are working on the task in the Do section, so tasks placed there will not bother you with alerts. I think someone else built a *timer* later on to trigger (other) alerts every few seconds or minutes, but my solution does not have that. I did not want to waste processing time while not looking at the screen. So my alerts are triggered by *activity* in the wiki only. A simple click anywhere should be enough in most cases. The second weakness of my solution ist that time differences are rather guesstimated than calculated. Rather precise for deadlines close to now but probably wrong for deadlines far away from now. And maybe a bit wrong around midnight but we shouldn’t be working then anyway. My solution was meant to be modular and reusable, so if you can borrow something from there you are very welcome (see the plugins): * moments.js by Kixam * datepicker plugin by Kixam These are used to set the deadline in a field* todo-deadline*. *Reminders for ToDoNow *is my plugin, stuff like the name of the field to watch is configurable. For calculations my *rpn* plugin is necessary – this is from a time when TW filters were not able to calculate anything. That’s all for now, might be others have better solutions.
