agenda and todo list

agenda and todo list

[Joseph Vidal-Rosset]

Hello everybody,

I'm trying to configure  a todo list and I would be  happy to succeed in
getting this todo  list in a todo.org file in  my Dropbox/Orgzly/ but, I
do not understand why it does not work with my setup:

;;file to save todo items
(setq org-agenda-files (quote ("/home/joseph/Dropbox/Orgzly/todo.org")))

The    todo    list   persists    in    being    in   my    home    only
i.e. /home/joseph/ .

Your help with agenda and todo list would be very welcome.

Best wishes

Hi Joseph,

The `org-agenda-files` variables tells Org which files (or folders) to use
to build your Agenda. It doesn't write anything or save anything to disk.

Why not just move the todo.org file from /home/joseph to the Orgzly folder,
and work with it there?

  -k.

Sorry for this email that I just sent. I understood too late that it was
only a problem of rights on my Dropbox folder, created by the Dropbox
installation.

Thanks Ken, I apologize !

Best,

Jo.

Unfortunately the problem remains the same, even after the change of rights
on the folders... C-c C-c register the task directly in a todo.org in
/home/joseph/ and not in the Dropbox/Orgzly folder.... :(

I need help to fix this.

Best wishes,

Jo.

I am confused, really, I just saw right now what was the cause of this
problem in my setup. Forget and forgive my ask of help, definitely.
