Marking a series as complete, then having it renewed tomorrow

1

I’m not sure how to say this, but I would like to set up a recurring task (for example for my daily singing practice) that includes 10 different things I do almost every day. And I want to indicate the set of tasks is complete for each day, but I want to preserve a few tasks that, for example, I did NOT complete yesterday.

As of now it seems to make a parent task as complete I am required to mark all its child tasks as complete. Is there a way I can mark parent complete while some of its subtasks as INcomplete?

Thanks for any suggestions.

usually i use shift-space (instead of space to complete the task) for these cases. It allows me to disable the incomplete tasks while completing the parents.

Not sure how it interacts with the recurrig stuff though…

Hi.

Get a task manager. Todoist is a pretty good one and it’s what I use to manage tasks (in exactly the way you describe.

AFAIK Checkvist is a list manager and that’s the way I use it.

Beware of Zawinski’s Law!!!

The only way to overcome this is to mark a subtask as irrelevant with shift+space, as @nocaoper suggested.

You can avoid completion of the parent when all children are closed (with an option in settings), but this is opposite to what you’re looking for. Still, worth mentioning probably.
