I've noticed that tasks I've set up with an optional due date automatically disappear (I have completed tasks hidden). I just found many of these in the Deleted folder in Settings. How do I change this so optional tasks can only be manually deleted?

Sorry, but this is how the modifier is supposed to work: quoting https://www.toodledo.com/info/help.php#42: "Optionally on:
You can also designate a task as optional (abbreviated with a "?"). This acts like "=", but if the date passes and you have not completed the task, the task will be automatically removed, or moved forward if it is a repeating task."

So if you want to manually delete the task, you have to stop using "optionally on" - how about using "Due on"? It seems that is what you do want anyway.

Thanks, but I use Due On for only hard due dates and I’d like to use Optionally Due for soft due dates. Do have have another alternative for using soft due dates?
