[ English | 简体中文 ]

Move a task (with all its rich-text sub-items) from the current daily note to the previous or next day's daily note, and re-position it under the same heading it came from in the source note.

Features

  • Move tasks via an inline icon at the end of each top-level task line, or via the command palette
  • Customizable left-click / right-click actions: popup menu, move to previous day, move to next day, or no action
  • Whole-task move: a task block including sub-items (nested lists, embeds, references, etc.) moves together
  • Heading re-positioning: appended at the end of the matching same-level heading in the target note; auto-creates the heading if the target note does not have it
  • Conflict detection: shows a Notice and skips the move if the target note already contains the same task line
  • Format compatibility: supports any moment.js date format configured in the Daily Notes plugin (e.g. YYYY-MM-DD, YYYY.MM.DD, YYYY/MM/DD, nested YYYY/YYYY-MM/YYYY-MM-DD, etc.)

Prerequisites

  • The built-in "Daily notes" core plugin must be enabled: this plugin relies on its settings (date format, folder, template) to recognize and locate daily notes. Confirm "Daily notes" is turned on under Settings → Core plugins.

Usage

  1. Open any daily note
  2. Hover over a top-level task — an arrow icon appears at the end of the line
  3. Click (or right-click, depending on your settings) the icon to move the task to the previous or next day, or use the corresponding command in the command palette

Settings

  • Left click action / Right click action: choose what happens when clicking the inline task icon — Popup menu, Move to previous day, Move to next day, or No action
  • Enable previous day / Enable next day: control whether the corresponding options appear in the popup menu. These are editable only when the left or right click action is set to Popup menu

About
Move a task and all its rich-text sub-items between daily notes and append it under the same-level heading in the target note, creating the heading if absent. Use an inline arrow icon or the command palette to send tasks to the previous or next day, with conflict detection to skip duplicate task lines. Support any moment.js date format configured for Daily Notes.
