Hello, I found out that using ido-mode is very useful for refiling. However there is one thing I don't know how to do: how to create a parent node in this setup.
Here is my configuration (straight from the usual http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html) #+BEGIN_SRC elisp ; Use full outline paths for refile targets - we file directly with IDO (setq org-refile-use-outline-path t) ; Targets complete directly with IDO (setq org-outline-path-complete-in-steps nil) ; Allow refile to create parent tasks with confirmation (setq org-refile-allow-creating-parent-nodes (quote confirm)) ; Use IDO for both buffer and file completion and ido-everywhere to t (setq org-completion-use-ido t) (setq ido-everywhere t) (setq ido-max-directory-size 100000) (ido-mode (quote both)) #+END_SRC Let's say I already have an entry "Work/Trips" and I want to refile some task to a new "Paris" project under "Trips". If I "C-c C-w" and type "Trips", I can see that the entry is selected. However, I don't know how to say "select this entry and let me type some more to add to it". If I continue typing "/Paris" I get a "no match" and an error "org-refile-check-position: Please save the buffer to a file before refiling" (which probably happens because I'm inside the agenda, and the refiling target "Trpis/Paris" makes no sense). I tried doing a "C-f" as when using ido with find-file, but it does not do anything. Any suggestion? Thanks, Alan
