Description St Mase 2000-12-05 09:48:38 UTC
(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package: korganizer
Version: 2.0 (KDE 2.0)
Severity: wishlist
Compiler: gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)
OS: Linux 2.2.16 i686 (compiled sources)

I think a feature for multiple reminders for a given event could be quite 
handy. A lot of events need in-advance preparation; a bithday and a 
meeting as examples:

event birthday
-----------
get a present (a week in advance)
write a card (three days ahead snail-mail) 
make a phone call (on birthday)

event meeting
----------
get train ticket book hotel ( a week in advance)
read some papers talk to some people (two days in advance)
catch the train (3 hours in advance)

With a feature for multiple reminders you wouldn't have to type in 3 
single events.

Just wanted to "touch" this wishlist item.  I also added some Votes for it.  This is a very important feature for those of us who wish to convert from Evolution, which does allow multiple reminders per event.

In addition, to having multiple reminders before the event, it would be useful to have a reminder after the event, for follow-up action.

SVN commit 443667 by kainhofe:

Finally finishe the GUI for the advanced reminder management. This code has partially been in SVN for quite a while, now it's finished. Also, libkcal (and korgac) already had all that functionality, there was just no proper GUI to access it:
1) Multiple reminders per event
2) Reminders that are before/after the start/end of the event
3) Repeating Reminders

This also fixes several usability bugs in the old reminder widgets (e.g. it wasn't properly visible if a sound was set or not, which sound was set, etc. See the usability reports...) And it finishes our second-most wanted issue.

GUI:
Now, before someone starts screaming that this just makes everything more complicated: The ability to add one simple reminder using just the offset is still there in the editor dlg, there's just an additional "Advanced..." button next to it that gives access to these advanced reminder settings.

Great news - thanks much, Reinhold!  

How does one tell which version of Korganizer that the new feature will appear?
