Ever since I installed the new version 0.11 I have not been able to get my overdue tasks to show. I am using the slider skin, but it is the same if I use other skins as well.
Can anyone help me with this?
Have you created/edited the POOM filters using the config.exe application?. You will need to add the [overdue] parameter to the filter.
Settings are now stored in the registry using this application. There are plenty of threads on this forum that talk how to add your settings so I will not repeat them here (just manually look thru the threads or use the Search feature).
From within Config.exe, in the Tasks box I have one entry:
90,[overdue][sort-duedate],taskfilter
That what I don't understand, because it was there all along. Is it possible something in the skin is preventing this?
The first entered filter will have an ID of 1, the second an ID of 2, etc. Therefore only skin code that uses option,taskfilter,1 will use this filter, so you made need to create additional filters. Also, you will one to create them under appointments as well if you want them to display under the agenda view.
Moreover, I think there was/is a slight mistake (bug, if you want to call it :P) in slider.txt with 0.11.
The first set of filter used in the skin is:
options,calendarfilter,0
options,taskfilter,0
which is not valid as config.exe starts with number 1 and not zero. Search relplace these lines with:
options,calendarfilter,1
options,taskfilter,1
Hope that shall fix it.
