Description

Category: Task Management

#task #checkbox

The Completed Tasks plugin automatically moves checked-off tasks to the bottom of their list, helping keep notes clean and focused. It runs in the background and checks for changes every few seconds to reorder completed items without interrupting your writing flow. It supports root-level task lists and ensures that subtasks stay attached to their parent task during sorting. The plugin also works well with the popular Tasks plugin, though it doesn't depend on it. With minimal setup and automatic operation, it's ideal for users who frequently work with to-do lists and want a tidy, distraction-free structure as they complete tasks.

Completed Tasks

A free, simple and intuitive Obsidian plugin that automatically moves completed tasks (checked checkboxes) to the bottom of the list they're in. Inspired by "Moving completed tasks to the end of the list".

Features

Demo

Tasks are reordered every ... seconds, only if the document has changed (the interval is configurable).
Keeps the cursor on the appropriate line during sorting.
Compatible with the popular Tasks plugin but doesn't require it.
Reorders tasks at the root-level, while subtasks move with their parent.
Works in Reader mode.
Optional setting to reorder immediately whenever you switch tabs or focus.
Opt out per note with frontmatter (completedTasks: false).

Usage

Install the plugin, that's it. Sorting happens automatically (every 10 seconds or so). There's a command to manually sort.

Installation

Get the plugin from Community Plugins and install.

Todo
