Subject: org-capture-template: How to correctly capture email addresses?
Date: Sun, 6 Nov 2011 11:49:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E7ECE5A2-1544-4B51-BB50-0D97846C9639@math.ethz.ch> (raw)
Hi,
I would like to capture contacts (name, email,..) with org-mode and thus setup the following in .emacs:
(setq org-capture-templates
'(("t" "TODO in ~/org/agenda.org -> Tasks" entry (file+headline "~/org/agenda.org" "Tasks")
"* TODO %?\nSCHEDULED: %^t\n%U %a")
("c" "Contact in ~/org/contacts.org -> Contact" entry (file+headline "~/org/contacts.org" "Contact")
"* %?%(org-contacts-template-name) %^g
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL: %(org-contacts-template-email)
:URL:
:WORK:
:HOME:
:MOBILE:
:LOCATION:
:BIRTHDAY:
:NOTE:
:END:")))
I can easily capture contacts with C-c c c, it prompts for the name, a tag, and the email address. However, instead of an output like
* My contact :my.tag:
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL: my.contact@my.mail.com
:URL:
:WORK:
:HOME:
:MOBILE:
:LOCATION:
:BIRTHDAY:
:NOTE:
:END:
I obtain:
* My contact :my.tag:
:PROPERTIES:
:EMAIL:
:URL:
:WORK:
:HOME:
:MOBILE:
:LOCATION:
:BIRTHDAY:
:NOTE:
:EMAIL: my.contact@my.mail.com
:END:
So the problem is that the first :EMAIL: is ignored and instead a second :EMAIL: is inserted before :END:. How can I obtain the correct output (as described above)?
Cheers,
Marius
