Hi, I have been using this recently myself so I hope I can explain it correctly
if I have a reminder for my birthday and set a leadtime of 1 e.g. <<reminder month:8 day:12 leadtime:1 title:"my birthday" >> this means it will show up in showReminders 1 day before the reminder if I just use <<showReminders>> however if in the showReminders you put "limit" it will override the leadtime set in the above reminder and will show up according to the leadtime set in the showReminders e.g. <<showReminders leadtime:30 limit>> will show up 30 days before the reminder instead of 1 day before. hope this helps On Jan 7, 9:22 am, passingby <[email protected]> wrote: > The showReminders syntax documentation says: > > leadtime:NUMBER or leadtime:NUMBER...NUMBER - Use this to specify a > lower and upper bound for reminders that will be shown.
