Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Hi! Thanks for this awesome app, I really like it. It seems that it is not possible at the moment to set a reminder for repeating tasks, is that correct? If yes, any plans to add this? It would be awesome. Thanks! :)
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2021):
Thanks for the kind words!
It is possible to add reminders for repeating tasks as usual. Just click on the "set reminders" button in the task detail view to set them. Or do you have something specific in mind?
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2021):
Hi @kolaente ! Thanks for your reply. When I set a reminder for a repeating task, it asks me the date and time. Does it mean that it will send the notification at the same time at the next occurrence?
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2021):
It won't send the reminder at the same time at the next occurrence, instead it will increase the date and time of all reminders by the same amount as all other dates (the amount you set as recurring).
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2021):
Gotcha! Sounds awesome. Thanks!
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Hi @kolaente ! I'm trying this but reminders seem to work only for the first occurrence of a repeating task. Maybe I am missing something obvious but what I do is
If I understood correctly from your previous message, after the first occurrence it should increase the date/time of the reminder by 1 day, meaning that I should see a new email reminder after 1 day at 10am. Is this correct or am I misunderstanding how it works? Thanks!
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Have you marked the task as done? It will only increase the dates after that.
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Hi! Yes, I have. The reminder remains in red, it's not updated.
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Uhm does this work only if the due date is set?
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
That sounds like a bug. Can you reproduce this on try?
It should work in either case.
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Oh, this is interesting: I have gone to the task's page and have clicked on the green "Done!" button, and now the reminder has been updated. Now the reminder is set for tomorrow at 10. I will check what happens after tomorrow :)
Thanks!
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Uhm just to see what happens, I clicked the checkbox for the same task but this time from the list, and the reminder went back to red with yesterday's date/time. Is this expected?
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
That's not expected. Is that reproducable on try?
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Ok so if I click on the "Done!" button on the task's page, it appears to update the reminder's date/time but if I just refresh the page, the reminder is back to red with the old date/time, indicating that it wasn't actually updated.
Yes, I see the same on the demo app. It shows the reminder as updated in the UI, but refreshing the page shows the old date/time for it
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
See task https://try.vikunja.io/tasks/943 - it shows the new date/time for the reminder when I click "Done!" but refreshing shows the old date/time
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 11, 2021):
Okay that's definitely a bug. I'll take a look
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 12, 2021):
Thanks for confirming that it's not just something I did wrong :D
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 13, 2021):
Fixed in
483496cc26. The CI is currently releasing a new unstable release (lands on try in a bit) which should be ready in ~30min, please check if the error persists with that.@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 13, 2021):
@kolaente Awesome, will try it right away, thanks!
@vitobotta commented on GitHub (Aug 13, 2021):
Perfect, it looks like it does update the reminders now. Awesome stuff, thanks again!
@kolaente commented on GitHub (Aug 13, 2021):
Glad it works, you're welcome!
