Edit: Actually your reward also includes a bug report. Go to journal and append to journal work perfectly. However, process isn’t creating any tasks in omnifocus. I’ll test the other actions.

Format is:

* Do laundry

Ok, fantastical worked. Drafts opened fantastical. It did not ask to open omnifocus.

—————-

Oh, got it, thanks! I had to click manage in actions then enable your set, now it shows easily and the actions are straightforward.

It’s very hard to tell whether this will be a thing I fiddle with for a couple days and then set aside, or if it changes everything. But this has definite potential to be one of those things that changes everything. (My notes are a mess of notes and todos and never knew how to process well.)

Thanks for making this and for writing up the comments about it!

As your reward you get a feature request haha. If you’re ever adding to this, I would love Reminders support.

Look for a draft called “Quick Journaling settings”. Edit the line “* OmniFocus” to say “* Reminders”. That should make it create reminders instead of OF actions.

I wrote this to mirror my own personal workflow, so I admit that it’s not for everyone. I love how frictionless it made recording everything I needed to record, though. “At the dentist.”, then cmd-opt-A (for “Add”) records that I’m at the dentist. “* Call Joe.”, then cmd-opt-A will remind me to call Joe later.

Oh, if you want to keep (or throw away) the daily journal draft, edit the “Process journal items” action and change the “after success” action.

Edit: After taking a year and a half off from that action group while I scribbled stuff in notebooks, I’m about out of paper and will be resuming development on it very shortly.

Hmm. Have I done something wrong? I entered this:

% Test

* Test

And these are my journal settings

@ Fantastical

* OmniFocus

- Day One

% Reminders

Omnifocus opens, reminders doesn’t

(Note that they aren’t double spaced. Just did that cause Hn doesn’t like lists)

[kstrauser]

Reminders doesn’t open for me when Drafts sends things to it. If you open Reminders, to you have a Journal list with a new reminder in it?

[graeme]

No, I don’t. I tried making a Journal list too, but nothing went.

However, I tried GoodTask and that worked. And GoodTask syncs with Reminders. So actually, I guess this works perfectly for my use case.

Still not sure what’s wrong with my code for Reminders though
