Displaying empty or with more than 2 weeks old tasks folders

One main rule of GTD is to review as often as possible all your folders to "think about them" and check if there is a new task to add, etc ...

Toodledo does offer the possibility to view all folders that contain non accomplished tasks, folders with more than 2 weeks accomplished tasks, but I haven't found a way to see all folders, empty or not, with accomplished tasks or not (excepted in the "folders & contexts " view, which is not usable to edit/add tasks).

I would like to be able to review a list displaying all folders

Is that possible ?

Have you tried using our advanced search page?

Thank you, I tried but:

I want to see a list with all my folders, empty or not, with tasks checked or not. It seems that with the advanced search I am able to see all the folders excepted empty ones (that is with no tasks inside). I want to see the empty folders in the same list.
Possible or not.
Thank you,
FM

I see. Yes, there is currently no way to see empty folders in a task list. We'll think about a way to add that.

Thanks

Thanks ! But it would be nice to see empty folders or folders with more than 2 weeks old tasks.

I'm new to Toodledo, and I'm loving it, but this is a feature I was interested in, too. Are there any work-arounds that anybody has found? Would adding a -1 priority task of "keep current" or something like that keep them showing up, even if I filter out -1 priority tasks?

I'm pretty sure the Folder's divider (I assume that is what you are referring to) will disappear as soon as there are no active, unfiltered tasks under it. I can't think of a good work around for this. You could just create a task like "keep on top of Folder X" that would just live there permanently. You could give it a reference status or something like that so it could be hidden when you are not in need of it.
