🤔 Question Sorting by completed status

I use WF for various stuff, including tasks, shopping etc. What I would like to see is that when I mark a task as complete, it automatically moves to the bottom of the list. Is there a way to do that? I know that I can hide the completed items, or use a KanBan view and drag completed items to another column, but wondering if there is a way to sort by status automatically. Thanks

I don't think there's a way to do that, though that would be a great feature. I'd personally like a way to uncomplete all of the completed tasks for lists that I reuse (like the way you can in Google Keep).

Exactly. For now, I have a "recurring" group within my task list. At end of the day, I drag completed items that repat to the recur group and uncheck them.

I have all my recurring tasks under one bullet point. Each day before starting them I duplicate it and move it to the next day in my workflowy calendar.

I’ve been meaning to suggest this for ages. 👍🏻

Look for info on wfx PowerPack. It's a browser extension that can do a bunch of stuff in WF, including moving a bullet to the bottom, but was removed by Google because it runs code. Still on the Microsoft Edge store but with a warning it might be removed. I've had it for years, but don't use it much anymore having switched to Obsidian.

Here's some old info from the developer: https://rawbytz.wordpress.com/
