Re: [O] Bug: Org Capture with Concatenated filenames [9.0 (9.0-elpa @ .e

Thanks for the quick answer!
Oh I see, could you please provide an example how to write such a function wrapper (I am new to Elisp)?
I defined several variables to directories where I have org-files, and capture to one or more files in those directories, for example:
(defvar logs "path-to-logs/") then capture to logs.org, events.org and services.org in that directory. How could I do that with a function wrapper?

Thanks you!

Hi Klarre,

The org 9.0 release had deprecated use of S-exps in org-capture-templates. That, though, went undocumented. So for now, that deprecation is reverted on the main branch and moved to the master/dev branch.

http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=f5645675a336d8f56fa9e6bd63832bdbac71f315

So when org stable next updates on Elpa (probably on Monday?), that will have this reverted commit in it. But going forward, when org 9.1 is released, the use of S-exp will once again be deprecated. So it would be best to replace that S-exp with a function wrapper.

Hi,
concatenated filenames for org-capture templates no longer works (since 9.0).

ECM:
(setq org-default-notes-file "absolute-path/default.org")
(defvar absolute "absolute-path/"
    "Path to Desired directory.")
(setq org-capture-templates '(
  ("e" "Example" entry
   (file+headline (concat absolute "example.org") "Example")
   "* Capture"
   :empty-lines 1)))

Expected result:
Add "* Capture" to absolute-path/example.org.

Result: "* Capture" is added to "absolute-path/default.org".

This provides the desired result, but unable to use variable filenames (very useful):
(setq org-default-notes-file "absolute-path/default.org")
(setq org-capture-templates '(
  ("e" "Example" entry
   (file+headline "absolute-path/example.org" "Example")
   "* Capture"
   :empty-lines 1)))



Thanks!
