Todos & due dates

Any entry can double as a follow-up by giving it a due date. Entries with a due date that aren't done yet show up on the Todos page, so your action items don't get buried in the timeline.

Adding a due date

When writing an entry

In the editor, click Set due date (next to Set custom time) and pick a date. Save the entry as usual. It now carries a due-date lozenge in the timeline.

On an existing entry

Click the due-date lozenge on an entry to open the date popover. From there you can:

  • Jump to Today, Tomorrow, or Next Week with one click.
  • Pick any specific date.
  • Mark done / Mark not done.
  • Remove the due date entirely (turning it back into an ordinary entry).

Marking things done

Click the circle/check on an entry's lozenge — or Mark done in the popover — to complete it. Done items drop off the Todos page but stay in their timeline as a record, shown with a completed style.

The Todos page

Open Todos from the header (or the mobile menu) to see every outstanding follow-up across all timelines, grouped by urgency:

SectionWhat's in it
OverdueDue before today
Due TodayDue today
Due Within 7 DaysThe coming week
Due Within 30 DaysThe coming month
Due LaterEverything further out

Within each group, items are sorted soonest-first. Each card shows a preview of the entry and the timeline it belongs to.

The Todos page listing outstanding follow-ups grouped into Overdue, Due Today, Due Within 7 Days, and Due Later.

  • Click a card to jump to that entry's timeline in context.
  • Click the check on the left of a card to mark it done — it disappears from the list immediately.
  • Click the due date on a card to reschedule it without leaving the page.

When nothing is pending, you'll see "All caught up!".

A simple workflow

  1. As you log entries, add a due date to anything that needs follow-up.
  2. Start your day on the Todos page and work top-down from Overdue.
  3. Check items off, or reschedule the ones that need to slip.
