Isn't it a feature of Org-mode that tasks can be added anywhere without giving a thought in the agenda files, letting the agenda itself sort them by date? Just changing the timestamp from monday to tuesday would do the job in a normal workflow, making the agenda-file structuring by day redundant. Otherwise what you want would be pretty easy to implement with Orgs basic structure editing and navigation functions, e.g. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun tj/move-entry-to-next-day () "Move entry at point to next parent and tag it." (unless (org-on-heading-p) (outline-previous-heading)) (org-mark-subtree) (kill-region (region-beginning) (region-end)) (org-up-heading-safe) (org-forward-heading-same-level 1) (forward-line) (yank) (outline-previous-heading) (org-mark-subtree) (org-change-tag-in-region (region-beginning) (region-end) "postponed" nil)) #+end_src This works with you example Org snippet, but is not tested otherwise. -- cheers, Thorsten
