Having Trouble Creating Multiple To-Dos with List Power Move
I'm having trouble using the create list power move to create multiple todos. See text of emails below. When I send Sandy the list of todos I want created, she doesn't use the text in the first line for each to do item. She just includes the info in each bullet. What am I doing wrong?!?!

I have this problem, too!
Tell me when someone solves it.
The more people who report this problem, the more it gets noticed.

Inappropriate?I 've seen the same behavior. I think that you can't split the description between the "master" line and each line of the list.. That list would have to be set as
r @todo +
* Send a copy of agreements to Bambi& Steve
* Send a copy to Bill
* Send a copy to Deb&Doug -
Yes, except Sandy's website says:
Anything all of the items in your list have in common can be dropped into the first line before the plus sign.
For example, you can schedule all of those errands for the same day like this:
remind me tomorrow afternoon @errand +
* pick up the dry cleaning
* stop by the paint store and find a nice color for the bedroom @home
* pick up my macbook
Sandy reads this as "remind me tomorrow afternoon [to]" + "pick up the dry cleaning" + "@errand" (and the same for the rest of the items in the list).
In fact, you can pack all the details into the first line before the plus sign and leave only what's different to the list itself, for example:
remember dentist appointments @dentist +
* 11/27 4pm
* 11/29 2pm
Sandy reads this as "remember dentist appointments" + "11/27 4pm" + "@dentist" (and the same for the rest of the items in the list). -
Inappropriate?Yeah, I've seen that as well.. BUt if you look closely, it's separate information.. He puts the date on another line, or the tags on another line.. but he doesn't ever split the date on 2 lines, or split the title on 2 lines. I think that isn't supported (yet).
