On my laptop when I click on a task 'due date' to change it I am normally presented with a calendar and some dates to choose from eg all days in the coming week plus 1 week, 1 month, 1 year etc. Now, I still get the calendar OK but the choice of dates starts 2 days before today's date.Why does it do this?

It's a bug, IMHO. You've had Toodledo open for two days in your browser, I bet. Until you reload the page (not just "R" but actually reload in the browser) it continues to think "today" is the date you loaded the page. I wish it would auto-reload at midnight or whatever is needed to make "today" always be today.

Garyo, I bet you are right. I tend to leave Toodledo open all the time unless I switch off completely. Thanks. Richard

Interesting. I've had TD open in my browser at home for many days, but don't have this problem. Wonder why?
Also, I was recently told by TD that pressing "R" is a reload, just like clicking on the Reload icon. I was using "R" when I wanted to update the page I was on and getting browser related error messages. So, AFAIK, pressing "R" is a browser reload. |

I use Firefox, and pressing Ctrl-R to reload the page corrects the dates. I've gotten in the habit of just doing it every morning when I sit down at my PC. It would be nice if the Toodledo page handled this on it's own though.
And if you're curious about what Ctrl-R (hard refresh) does in general: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-hard-refresh.htm |

Thanks for your reply.
I know what a browser refresh is, been clicking on the "Refresh/Reload" button since the days of Mosaic. I assumed that pressing "R" in TD was just a shortcut for Ctrl-R or for clicking on the Refresh icon, based on the problem I was having and what TD suggested I do instead. My comment was more about the fact that I haven't had the need to refresh the browser even when I've left it open for days. I know that certain web pages, like Google Calendar, most email pages, etc, automatically periodically reload the page. Some even give you the opportunity to choose how often they refresh. I leave my home computer on for weeks at a time, and don't recall ever seeing the situation you described in TD there. But I can't remember for sure leaving it on for days and then going to schedule a task, so I'm not sure I wouldn't see the same thing under those conditions. I would think that a task management app like TD would refresh automatically periodically, but I don't know that for a fact. Wonder if someone on the team would let us know? |

We do not refresh the page automatically. Until we implement something like this, you'll need to reload the page once day.

Thanks for your reply.
I guess I've been manually refreshing often enough it hasn't been an issue. This message was edited Aug 09, 2010. |
