Hello, Org mode hackers,
Here is a recipe for a bug on the maint branch that causes standard
skipping conditions to have no effect.
1. Change the load path setting in `setup.el'.
2. Start Emacs with `emacs -Q -l setup.el'.
3. Customize the agenda commands with `M-x org-agenda C'.
4. Add a new command, change the match field to tag `foo', and add a
standard skipping condition for TODO states, so that the command
looks like this in the customization buffer:
,----
| INS DEL Choice: Value Menu Single command:
| Access Key(s) : x
| [X] Description: Describe command here
| Choice: Value Menu Tags/Property match (all agenda files)
| Match (only for some commands): foo
| Local settings for this command. Remember to quote values:
| INS DEL Setting: Value Menu Standard skipping condition:
| org-agenda-skip-function
| List:
| List:
| Skipping range: Value Menu Skip entry
| Conditions for skipping:
| INS DEL Condition type: Value Menu TODO state is:
| todo
| Choice: Value Menu any not-done state
| INS
| INS
| [ ] Export:
| INS
`----
5. Type `M-x org-agenda x'. The resulting agenda view looks like this:
,----
| Headlines with TAGS match: foo
| Press `C-u r' to search again with new search string
| test-case: TODO Buckle my shoe
:foo:
`----
I expected the TODO item to be filtered out.
This is the value of `org-agenda-custom-commands':
,----
| (("x" "Describe command here" tags "foo"
| ((org-agenda-skip-function
| '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if todo todo))))
| ("n" "Agenda and all TODO's"
| ((agenda "" nil)
| (alltodo "" nil))
| nil))
`----
The problem seems to be that the arguments to
`org-agenda-skip-entry-if' are unquoted. The following steps verify
that.
6. Change `org-agenda-custom-commands', quoting the arguments to
`org-agenda-skip-entry-if'.
,----
| (setq org-agenda-custom-commands
| '(("x" "Describe command here" tags "foo"
| ((org-agenda-skip-function
| '(org-agenda-skip-entry-if 'todo 'todo))))
| ("n" "Agenda and all TODO's"
| ((agenda "" nil)
| (alltodo "" nil))
| nil)))
`----
7. Remake the custom agenda view with `M-x org-agenda x'.
,----
| Headlines with TAGS match: foo
| Press `C-u r' to search again with new search string
`----
As expected, the TODO item is filtered.
Best,
Thomas
