Re: [O] Org-mode issue with cyclic tasks and checkboxes

Thanks for answer.

I already got another answer from stackoverflow, where I ask exactly the same question, is here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20164918/how-to-untick-checkboxes-in-org-mode-for-the-next-cyclic-repetitive-task

But basically the solution it was include this:

:PROPERTIES:

:RESET_CHECK_BOXES: t

:END:

and of course (require 'org-checklist) should be included in .emacs configuration file.

Again, thanks for the answer.

Hi,

I am working with cyclic or repetitive tasks in org-mode, inside this task, I have several checkboxes. So when I finished all the list, normally I put the task as done, and new task with sublist of checkboxes is created for the next cycle, however, those checkboxes appears as ticked and I think should be unticked as it is new cycle task, e.g.:

* TODO Cyclic monthly home [0/5]
SCHEDULED: <2013-11-30 Sat +1m>
 - [ ] pay sauna
 - [ ] pay electricity
 - [ ] pay renting
 - [ ] pay internet
 - [ ] pay union

Once I ticked all of them and put it as done, this is what I can see:

* WIP Cyclic monthly home [5/5]
SCHEDULED: <2014-01-30 Thu +1m>
- State "DONE"       from "WIP"        [2013-11-06 Wed 20:49]
:PROPERTIES:
:LAST_REPEAT: [2013-11-06 Wed 20:49]
:END:
 - [X] pay sauna <--- this should be unticked
 - [X] pay electricity <-- this should be unticked
 - [X] pay renting <-- this should be unticked
 - [X] pay internet <-- this should be unticked
 - [X] pay union <-- this should be unticked

Am I missing something? or is some bug that should be fixed?

I am using those versions:

Emacs version:
GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2013-08-30 on apocalipsis

Org-mode version:
Org-mode version 7.9.3f (release_7.9.3f-17-g7524ef @ /usr/local/share/emacs/24.3/lisp/org/)
