Automatically postpone uncompleted daily tasks
When I do not complete a daily task, the day after, I may have forgot that I did not complete this task, and the task is completely lost and never done.
This is kind of stressful, as I need to constantly browse the previous days to ensure nothing is forgot.
I'd like to have an option to automatically move tasks to the current day if they are not completed.

Hey David, you can use the tag `>today` if you want a task to stick around (* buy milk >today). It will stay in the daily note references at the top until you complete it. Tasks are on purpose not moved forward automatically, because then we don't really need daily notes and could use a single large inbox. Also, you are never really forced to review tasks you have written down before and take decisions if they are still important. This often results in a big bucket list of in-completed, low-priority tasks creating a lot of clutter. The friction NotePlan adds to move them forward comes from the Bullet Journal system and helps you to stop and prioritize. I have made here a video on the daily note process I'm using explaining this with a bit more detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rc0zVuL8w1k Let me know what you think!
