I decided to dig into this, and it's not a bug. One should set: (setq org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options t) The trick was that these blocks were tag searches. According to the documentation: Documentation: Non-nil means honor todo-list ...ignore options also in tags-todo search. The variables `org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date', `org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp', `org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled', `org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines' make the global TODO list skip entries that have time stamps of certain kinds. If this option is set, the same options will also apply for the tags-todo search, which is the general tags/property matcher restricted to unfinished TODO entries only. Alan
