org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled setting not affecting custom agenda

[Paul Mead]

Hi

I've got some custom agendas set up, see the extract from my org config
file below.

If I use one of the built-in agenda comands, for instance C-c a t any
scheduled todos are omitted as expected. If I select any of my custom
agenda commands, they are not.

Any idea why this would be?

Thanks, Paul

As far as I can see, there is only one custom command to which the
ignore option would apply: the todo "STARTED" search in "a" (the
custom block agenda). 

It looks as if most of your custom agenda commands are tags-todo
searches. Try the following setting:

(setq org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options t)

Best,
Matt

[Paul Mead]

Thanks Matt, that did the trick. I didn't consider that tags-todo
might behave differently.

Cheers
