I have created four tags. I had these in order as follows: 1-Today 2-This Week 3-This Month 4-Next Month However, when I added tag #4 to a task, the sequence on the left sidebar became this: 4-Next Month 1-Today 2-This Week 3-This month What can I do so that the sequence on the sidebar in the Tags view does not do this? -David |

By default, Tags are ordered by "popularity", i.e. the more often you use a Tag, the higher up the list it appears. When you added "4-Next Month" to a task, it became the most popular and went to the top of the list. If you go to Settings here https://www.toodledo.com/account_edit.php?edit=9 you can click "Sort tags alphabetically". Your sidebar list of Tags will then be in alpha/numeric order. |

Thanks, Folks! Sorting alphabetically is exactly what I was looking for. :) -David |

I completed a task with one of my tags. I created a new task and when I wanted to add that tag, it does not show -- I had to create it again. So...if you do not have tasks with a tag, that particular tag disappears? Is there a way for Toodledo to remember a list of tags even though all of them may not be in play all of the time? -David |

The list of tags is generated by looking at the ones that are in use right now. If a tag becomes unused, it will be removed from the list until you type it in again to use it. |

Okay -- that is what I thought. Any chance for an option to remember your list of tags so you do not have to retype every time? -David |

Sorry, this would go against how tags were designed. If you want a fixed list of items, you might try using folders or contexts instead. Those will stick around when they are empty. |

Okay. But the problem is that one can only have one context per task. I had posted earlier if one could have more than one context per task. So, for example, I have a context of @Errands. I would like it also be in a category of being done this week, hence the tag I had. Any chance of having multiple contexts per task? |

Thanks for the suggestion. We do not comment on timeframes for implementation, but this is on our to-do list. Thanks |

Posted by david-drake: Okay -- that is what I thought. Any chance for an option to remember your list of tags so you do not have to retype every time? -David my solution is that I have a couple of "dummy" tasks called "tags" and "tags1" that I tag with all of the tags I wat to use in my list. in other words, these tasks only exist so that I can use all of the tags in the tasks. I don't see them because they are filtered out of all of my searches and lists (negative priority, no due or start date, etc.), but all of my tags are used, so they never drop out of the tag popup for editing tasks. if I didn't explain that well, let me know and I will try again!! |
