How to get overdue tasks, (within the last x days/weeks, this month)

[elvarb]

I know I can do

not done 
due last week

But can I do the same for the last 2 weeks or perhaps last 14 days ?

Also is it possible to get all overdue tasks for this month ?

Also is it possible to get overdue tasks form a time windows, lets say due 14 days ago to 30 days ago?

Figured part of it out but I found inconsistency in how the filter is applied.

This shows all tasks due this week and last week, and notice how the due filter is formatted

not done 
due before today
due this week | last week
group by priority
sort by due reverse
short mode

When doing the same for months the filter only works when formatted like this

not done 
due before today
due this | last month
group by priority
group by due
sort by due reverse
short mode

Hi,

Thanks for using Tasks.

due this | last month

That is not a valid query.

All the many date search options are listed in the section of the Filters page starting at Searching for dates.

And to check how Tasks has interpreted your queries, use the explain instruction.

If you need AND or OR, see Combining Filters.

After you've tried those pages, if you do still have questions, ask away...

That explain feature is really helpful, managed to fix the query

not done
due before today
(due last month) OR (due this month)
group by priority
group by due
sort by due reverse
short mode

Excellent. Thanks very much for the feedback.

Wish all query languages had this explain feature 🥇
