Version: 3.3.1 (using KDE 3.3.1, SuSE) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.5-7.111-default The recurrence rule portion of the Edit To-Do dialog could be clearer about what it edits: I want to create a recurring to-do item, for a monthly bill, with a start date (the day the bill will probably arrive) and a due date (when it should be paid). On the "Edit To-Do" dialog's General tab, I check "Due:" and enter "2004-11-07". I check "Start:" and enter "2004-11-01". On the Recurrence tab I check "Enable recurrence" and then under "Recurrence Rule" I select Monthly. The rightmost part of the "Recurrence Rule" area offers a choice of "Recur on the [31st] day" and "Recur on the [5th] [Sunday]" (note that today is Sunday Oct. 31). I have to change this, but I don't know what I'm changing. Is this the recurrence rule for the start date, or the due date? It would be helpful if the line that says "Recur every [1] month(s)" said "Due date recurs every [1] month(s)".

This problem with the labeling of recurring to-dos is still present in KDE 4.1.1.
This problem with the labeling of recurring to-dos is still present in KDE 4.3.2 (Kubuntu 9.10), five years later.
4.11 is now RFC compliant. Recurrence is always against DTSTART, for both to-dos and events.
Thank you for the clarification. Note that - My original wishlist item is more about the labeling of the recurrence. - The choices for the recurrence value offered -- "Recur on the [31st] day" and "Recur on the [5th] [Sunday]" -- are derived from the date when the item was created, not from the DTSTART property of the item.
Sergio, should this be marked as fixed?
It's not fixed. The title is not the best though.
I think after 10 years we can safely mark this one as "won't fix".
