I had no trouble to set up this using the examples from http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html and http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/org-depend.html With org-depend you can also use another method to overcome this problem: ** NEXT Task B [...] :ID: mytaskB [...] ** NEXT Task C [...] :BLOCKER: mytaskB [...] I am not using stuck project information (yet) but this does not show Task C on my agenda at least. Which is quite nice since it is way more flexible and can be used in a broader way. -- Karl Voit
