Cannot Specify Non-Default List when Creating Item about vikunja HOT 9 CLOSED

Sorry, I am no longer on the stable version of Vikunja so can't record a video to reproduce. I see the docs change when you change the magic mode on try.vikunja.io so I suppose this is all moot and any issue I was having will be fixed when the next release is cut to stable :)

Can you reproduce this on try?

I actually get different behaviour on try. It only adds to the default list but also doesn't remove the #otherListName which it does on my local instance. On a whim, I tried the auto add magic mode to Todoist and that seemed to work on try! Is this a newer version than on latest?

Mhh sounds like this was fixed in the meantime but not backported to stable.

Does it make a difference if you set the quick add magic mode to Todoist or Vikunja?

Try runs the last unstable version, latest is the last stable release.

Nope makes no difference to me what magic mode is being used, I'd just like the feature of putting items in different lists from the one input box!

Is it relatively safe to run try locally? From looking at the docker hub it's under the tag unstable?

This really looks like a bug, I'll take a closer look.

Well it's bleeding edge so there's a few bugs here and there. From using it on my own instance I'd say it is definitely usable though.

Tried to reproduce this but it works without issues. Here's a video recording of it:

What exactly does not work when you use it? Can you provide clear steps to reproduce? Can you provide a recording of the bug?

Sorry about this, quite a stupid mistake :(

It seems from your video that the correct syntax for specifying the list is to use + instead of #. From the help, I saw:

Assignees
To directly assign the task to a user, add their username prefixed with + to the task. You can use this multiple times.

List
To set a list for the task to appear in, enter its name prefixed with #. This will return an error if the list does not exist.

So maybe the fix is to just update the docs?

from vikunja.

The symbol used depends on the selected quick add magic mode. In the vikunja mode it is a + for lists, in the todoist mode it is a #. The docs change when the mode is changed in the settings.

I've checked again, the mode does not make a difference.
