Recurrence not working after modifying the due date of a task

Open aisneto opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

What command(s) did you run?

task add example due:15th recur:3d

== on January 17th ==

task *above task ID* mod  due:today

TaskWarrior would prompt a request if it should modify all following instances of this recurring task, which I entered "yes".

What did you expect to happen? The child task would change it due date to today, and the template would be updated to spawn another child task 3 days from now, respecting the original recurrence with the new due date.
What actually happened? Although the template task get updated, it does not spawn any more child instances.

Here is the task info:

What was the Taskwarrior version this behaviour was observed with? Perhaps the most easy would be to post the output of task diagnostics :slightly_smiling_face:
