Setup option: filter notes to include or exclude from GTD

[jcangas]

• For example, I have some folder with "archived" or "frozen" notes with "- [ ]" markers that I don't want in my GTD workflow

Came here to suggest the same. I have some notes which are just checklists for certain occations. These are not meant to be active TODO items.

A solution would be to add one (maybe more, maybe configurable) tag to designate notes with checklists that shall be ignored when collecting TODOs.

Good idea, I'll add it to the next release.

Or, instead of a tag (which I use for different things), a custom frontmatter attribute? Something like:

---
gtd-ignore: true

---

After using this plugin for several weeks, I think we only need one “tag prefix” #gtd . Samples:

• #gtd/2021-4-23 Is a very nice holiday in Barcelona! ——> for scheduled tasks
• #gtd Something to do ——> for inbox tasks. Maybe with a pluggin option if #gtd is required for inbox or not
• #gtd/someday I will do that ——> for someday tasks

I think this is minimal intrusive, easy to support and very flexible: Any user can add other personal “boxes”

• #gtd/soon I will do that ——> Tasks with no fixed date but should not be put off too long

This will exclude all tasks in a note.Yes, sometimes this solves de problem, but I think a more "per-date" solution is needed. I believe something like #gtd is "intention clear" and flexible. I see many reasons to put dates in a task: entry date, due date, review date, planed date(s) to work in that task, etc. You may want see none, one or several dates from the same task in your gtd board
