I like todoist but they lock way too many basic task managment features behind a paywall. Stuff like task reminders and calendar view are basic features, they should not charge a premium for that. Also their logo looks like it was designed by a 5th grader, a stack of checkmarks that look stretched to the wrong aspect ratio.

@@jadonharper1493 It's true that many features are locked behind a paywall but it's definitely convenient especially with the web and mobile apps. Cross platform access is important for task management. On the other hand I've started exploring Tana for note taking and even some tasks and I'm really enjoying it. The fields in supertags are like database fields in Notion but much easier and more intuitive for me.

A big disadvantage of that approach is that we lose a record of all the recurring tasks we did in the past, since we are always recycling them for next time. If only Notion would make the "Repeat" option of templates a little bit more capable and customizable...

Great stuff as always. I'll dig into this again. Since I began using Notion for tasks, my take on recurring tasks is not to deal with them, even though 90% of my tasks are recurring. Instead of one click to complete and change the date of a task as in most systems, I simply click on the date, then click on the new date. 2 clicks instead of 1 and it requires no work. An extra bonus is how easy it is to change the recurrence, which happens often.
@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 25 днів тому

@SeyiObembe 25 днів тому
I think you can also do this automation for level 3 if you’re on Apple by leveraging shortcuts to filter in the same way you do grab the date in your next due property and then update the actual date with the date from your formula. Both are really cool though and it’s really cool to come up with innovative solutions to this whilst Notion catch up!
@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 25 днів тому
I believe you can, yes! It just makes the workflow reliant on your device being on and connected to the internet, which isn't guaranteed. I'm also not totally sure if you can have it run on a schedule, instead of needing you to manually run it - though maybe that is possible.

Came across notion years ago but didn't fully go into it for whatever the reason but coming back for the need an organization in my life since I have gotten SOO much more busy, led me straight back to Notion. Must say I appreciate this video since it hit the nail on the head with what I was looking for, though still looking at other avenues. The reoccurring task was a NEED for me and seeing this video made me explode with excitement xD. Well done on the video and information given and look forward to seeing more videos (subscribed immediately). Question: Unless I missed something but is there a way to have the Kanban status update itself to Done, once the checkbox for a task is ticked? I checked a bunch of boxes last night but forgot to adjust the status so the automation didn't go through. EDIT: I watched the video again so I made sure to use the status instead of the checkbox but for some reason PipeDream gave an error about 2 times and the dates of the task got adjusted by 4 years instead of 1 year.
@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 22 дні тому
The automation can't set your Status to Done, as it's intended to do the opposite. Sorry about that! Personally, I'm moving towards only using Kanban Status, and totally getting rid of the Done checkbox. Notion now lets you render Status properties as checkboxes, so it's finally time to stop having two different properties for task status. I'll be covering this in one of my next two videos. As for the Pipedream error, feel free to open an issue here: github.com/TomFrankly/pipedream-notion-recurring-tasks/issues If Pipedream adjusted the task date incorrectly, it's likely an issue with your setup in Notion. All Pipedream does here is read the date displayed in Next Due, and set the Due date to that date.

@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 25 днів тому
Unfortunately, it doesn't work with times. We tried really hard to make this work, but the limitations of the Notion API make it pretty much impossible. This is mostly due to Daylight Savings Time - because we have to work with the API, there are situations where the next due date would be across the line that divides standard time and daylight savings time. But there are literally thousands of DST rules all around the word, so we can't compensate for this - and it could lead to times becoming inaccurate.

@karinwesterberg9438 25 днів тому
Thanks so much for this! I am quite new to notion, so this might be silly questions but here goes: if I use another language than English in notion, I will need to change the property names in the code to correspond to the actual names on the properties I use (for example "att göra" in strad of "to do"), right? And if do, I can not use the "magic button" to add code to the workflow if I would like to automate the process? Any suggestions on how to go about this if I need to make changes in the property names in the code? All help most appreciated!
@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 25 днів тому
Instead of changing the property names in the code, I'd recommend first setting up the properties and formulas exactly as I've done. Once that's done, you can change the property names, and the formulas that reference them will get updated. Note that this only works for property names - e.g. Due, Recur Unit, etc. For specific options - like "Day(s), Week(s)" etc in Recur Unit, you'll need to translate them both in the actual property and in the Localization Key formula. You can learn more about that here: thomasjfrank.com/notion-automated-recurring-tasks/#faqs-and-reference-guides I'm not sure about the magic button you're referring to!

@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 22 дні тому
Yep, you can do this! If you look in the Exports tab of the notion_recurring_tasks action, you can see that I export an array called completedRecurringTasks within the $return_value object. That array contains the full record of each completed task, before it is processed. So the due date is whatever it was when you checked off the task. You can use this data to create your log. Add a new step to the workflow, then choose Notion → Use Any Notion API in Node.js. From there, you can add code to build your log. I've thrown together an example code step that will add the due date as a bullet list item in the page body: github.com/TomFrankly/pipedream-notion-recurring-tasks/blob/main/update-log.mjs All you'd need to do is paste that code into the code step, then choose your Notion account from the Configure tab.

@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 22 дні тому
Correct, Pipedream only triggers on checked-off tasks that have a Next Due date (which will only show if you set a Recur Interval). The automation doesn't touch tasks that are meant to be one-time. Technically, it does un-check your recurring tasks and set them to the next upcoming date. But I find that works quite well!
@cchurchlead
@cchurchlead 23 дні тому
I was hoping to find a recurring function in your formulas that allows for scheduling tasks based on a specific day within a week. For instance, the current monthly task function has limitations. When setting a recurrence, it's tied to a specific day rather than a weekday within a week. This makes it challenging to schedule tasks like 'the third Thursday of every month.' Unfortunately, there's no option to set this in either the weekly or monthly sections. Even setting the recurrence interval to every four weeks in the weekly section can be problematic, as months with five weeks would disrupt the schedule.
@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 22 дні тому
Yep, the system unfortunately doesn't support recur schedules like that. We added First/Last Weekday of the Month, but we had to stop somewhere. I think I've invested about $50,000 in developer time getting this recurring tasks setup to where it is now, not counting the hours I put in myself! There's a balance in investing more time/money into this, because I expect Notion to fix it themselves at SOME point. (Though I thought it'd be done by now!) For the next few months I need to focus on product refreshes, new content, and Flylighter's launch - but when I get some downtime, one upgrade I'd like to try making to this is letting people use ChatGPT or Claude to write literally any recur schedule they want. I'm thinking I could just give people a normal text field to write something like "Third Tuesday of the Month" and then update the Pipedream script to convert that into an RRULE and apply it to the Due date.

@ThomasFrankExplains
@ThomasFrankExplains 25 днів тому
That's there on purpose. The Type formula should only ever mark a task as "Recurring" if someone is using the manual method from Level 2 - just moving the Due date. This formula just helps prevent confusion if someone checks Done on their task, but doesn't have the Pipedream automation set up. In that case, the task would never appear in their to-do list again. Once someone is using the Pipedream automation, we want the task to always be "One-Time" no matter what.

@@mednoun8609 yeah, I don't like that we have that property at all to be honest. It's there because I included it all the way back in 2019, and I have to make sure my automations work for people who have very old versions of the templates. In future versions of my templates, I'm hoping to simply remove that property. But in old templates, it's all over the filters in every database view - and those can't be updated remotely.

@@ThomasFrankExplains So after testing the workflow, the pipedream AI automatically changes the "Type" property to always be configured as "One-Time". However, that is the only change that occurs. The checkbox for the "done" property does not reset to "unchecked" and the dates do not automatically reset. please help however you can, accidentally stayed up all night watching all your videos and going through code (im a medical student not CS major haha) trying to understand and fix the issue.
