Ambulologist	Posted Feb 25, 2012 in: Postpone Task with Recurrence Feature Request Score: 0 Ambulologist Posted: Feb 25, 2012 Score: 0 Thanks for the ideas! These comments and more reading lead me to think I have been misusing the "due date" field. Now I am looking at "other method[s] to prioritize" and organize my tasks. I have been using due dates to make sure that I don't "lose" my tasks, by keeping them in front of me when I sort by due date. I will look at other ways to make sure I don't lose track of them. I love the flexibility that Toodledo has, but it can be overwhelming trying to figure out how to harness it!

I don't think I know enough about using Toddledo's many features to figure out a better way. Here is the scenario: I have many recurring tasks (mostly weekly or monthly) that I'd like to do by a certain due date, but they are not firm due dates. If it is a few days (or even weeks for some) late, that's fine. They are really just reminders. I would like to postpone/change the due date each day so that it shows up as "Due Today." (or tomorrow or whenever I think I'll get to it). However, that will mess up the recurrence. This is what I do with non-repeating tasks. So I just let the due dates slide into the past until I complete them -- even though they are not really due on that date. Any help or advise is appreciated. Thanks, Jason
