About two years ago, I purchased and read Linenberger's books. I don't recall anything about setting the Start Date to yesterday. Did I miss it, or is this something new?

Instead of "Tag contains", use "Tag is".

DSM:
It is obvious that each task in Toodledo already has a unique ID.
Each sub-subtask will be related to just one other task, a one-to-many relationship. In a many-to-many relationship, each subtask could belong to more than one task.
The "reason" for the relationship is determined by the data structure and by the ID number.

With your last two points, you've gone from multiple levels of subtasks to task dependency, which is a different issue.

In any case, there's the issue of how to manage, filter and display the related tasks on a website. Perhaps you have some suggestions.

Jake, many many other task management apps have found a way around this, I'm sure Toodledo engineers are smart enough to figure it out too.
Just wondering: What are, say, three online task managers that "have found a way around this"?

Peter, there are several task managers that offer multiple levels of tasks. Have you tried them?

For example, MyLifeOrganized is available for Windows, iOS and Android. There's Omnifocus for Mac and iOS. Todoist has web-based access, as well as Windows, Mac, Android and iOS apps.
I'd consider a serious contribution here if others would pitch in, if it would get this train moving.
Sometimes it's better to get on a train that is already moving ... especially if you're willing to pay a higher fare. But, it depends on the journey and the destination.
;-)

Sort by "Date Added" and you'll see the field at the far right.

Likewise, you can sort by "Date Completed" or "Date Modified".

Simple answer is that you can't manually sort tasks in Toodledo, although you can with subtasks.

Take a look at this recent topic:

I'm a bit confused by something in your first post:
"perhaps to temporarily filter out all -1 priority tasks".

You can do this now.

Yes, I can tell you.
Yes, I can see my Outlines and Lists on an iPhone or iPad, in Safari or Chrome.
No, I can't see my Outlines and Lists in the Toodledo iOS app.

I think that there are two ways of looking at "re-ordering tasks".

One way is to re-arrange all of your tasks in the order that you expect to do them during the day. I think that this approach is time-consuming and counterproductive.

The other way, though, is to look at your tasks and identify a few tasks that you want to put "at the top of the list" and just drag them to the top.

Yes, in Toodledo you can filter by using Priority and Star, and perhaps Status, along with Start Dates and Due Dates, and Folders, Contexts, Tags and Goals, and you can sort your list by up to three fields, in ascending or descending order. Far from simple, and it seems to me that all that complexity is needed to offset the lack of a simple way of re-arranging tasks.

Recently, I've started using Todo 7 by Appigo on my iPhone and iPad. The app has only three ways to sort: "Due Date, Priority", "Priority, Due Date" and Alphabetical. At first I thought that this would limit my ability to work my task list but the app offers a nice Focus List, along with an easy way of changing the order of tasks within a list. The order is automatically updated on all devices. Just create a Focus List and start working. No need for complex Filters, Sort Orders, or Saved Searches.

Simple, quick, intuitive.

Dean, from the link Backup/Restore:
This file will contain a backup of your tasks, notebooks, folders, contexts, goals, locations, and saved searches
The XML Export will backup only your tasks.

And, I just realized something: I'm pretty sure that there's currently no way of backing up Outlines and Lists.

You can take a look at this topic from 2009: How do I re-order my list manually?
And this more recent topic: Manual sorting.

Couldn't do it then, can't do it now.

Salgud, take a look at False dilemma and Red herring.

In any case, Jake has decided not to develop an app for Windows Phone. That's a legitimate choice, as is the choice to spend time and effort developing Outlines and Lists instead of an Android app. There are many choices, "if you make your living as a developer".

And, many choices if you are a subscriber.

Salgud, where did you get "70%"? Do you mean Android or iOS?

And where did you get 10% and 6%?

From a recent Forbes article:
Android, used to power phones by Google, Samsung and others, is the most popular smartphone OS, and it expected to have a 75.3 percent share of the market by the end of the year, with that share dipping to 68.3 percent by 2017. Apple’s iOS, in second place, will have an estimated 16.9 market share by year’s end before climbing to 17.9 percent by 2017. IDC puts the share for Microsoft’s Windows Phone, which powers Nokia’s mobile phones, at 3.9 percent this year, and predicts it will rise to 10.2 percent by 2017.
