Hi,

how can I set up an agenda view in org-mode which does NOT show old entries which contain scheduled or deadline dates older than 3 months?

I did not find an option for that - maybe I've overlooked it?

Kind regards

Martin

Hi Nick,

thanks a lot for your help! That looks great, however I don't get it to work:

lightweight example agenda (shows also scheduled items which are >500 days old!):

("y1" "test" agenda "" ((org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled -30)))

What am I doing wrong?

I'm still on org-mode 8.2.7c, is this the problem?

Kind regards

Martin

I'm not sure what it does (if anything) when you set it locally in a custom agenda, but in limited testing it certainly does not seem to do what you want.
