This makes copies of a tree and inserts them as siblings. The command
prompts you for the number of copies to make. The really useful
feature is to update dates according to a pattern.

Here is an example of creating headings for each of the next six months:

Start with this:

** First of the month
*** July
   SCHEDULED: <2009-07-01 Wed>

....

Now you just have to change the occurrences of July to the real
month names!

I don't know when this feature appeared but it is very useful.

Hi Charles!

I have a training log that has the following headings

* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]

where i keep a training log for the day.

I tried replicating the tree, but i can't get the date to increase....so for 5 copies i get

* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]
* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]
* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]
* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]
* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]
* Training Log [2009-06-19 Fri]

so am i doing something wrong, or the clone-subtree-with-time-shift works only on dates in properties?


best regards,
