org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled and tags search

[Spike Spiegel]

Hi,

in my agenda blocks view a have a couple blocks based on tags-todo
matches and would very much like to exclude already scheduled items.
Unfortunately org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled does not seem to have
any effect on it and based on the documentation it seems indeed to
only apply to the global todo list. I thought I could add SCHEDULED as
part of the tags-todo match criteria, but I don't see how to check for
isNull or similar. Thoughts?

thanks

I set this variable to t in several tags-todo agenda blocks and it works
just fine. Could you provide an example of the custom command in which
it doesn't work?

Doh, I did mean to provide it in my first email but I forgot to attach
the file with the snippet. Here it goes:

              ((agenda ""
                     ((org-agenda-files '("~/Documents/orgmode/"))
                      (org-agenda-start-on-weekday 1)))
               (todo "STARTED|HOLD"
                     ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Projects status")))
               (tags-todo "+CATEGORY=\"WrkPrj\"+TODO=\"TODO\""
                     ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Projects TODOs")))
               (tags-todo "-CATEGORY=\"WrkPrj\"+TODO=\"TODO\""
                     ((org-agenda-overriding-header "Work TODOs"))))
              ((org-agenda-files '("~/Documents/orgmode/work.org"))
               (org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled t)
               (org-agenda-text-search-extra-files nil)))

as far as I understood the documentation options specified like that
should apply to all blocks for this view, and indeed if I throw a
global todo list in there it gets picked up same way that agenda
already picks it up. But for example "Projects TODOs" right know lists
stuff that was scheduled for yesterday and got DONE.

thanks for your help

Hi Spike, Matthew,

maybe you overlooked my answer to this thread?

Check out the variable org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options
and bind it t t as well.

urm, what answer sorry? This is the first email of yours I see in this
thread. Has there been a similar thread recently I didnt notice?

Brilliant, that did the job, thank you very much

Thanks for letting us know about this variable.

My apologies, Spike, for giving you an incorrect answer the first time.
Upon further examination, without the variable above, the ignore
settings only worked with "todo" blocks (not "tags-todo" lists). 

Best,
Matt
