Smart add bug: How come “every first sunday” doesn't work?

kseistrup says:
Using “Smart Add”, I'm trying to create a task that repeats every month on the first Sunday. E.g.:

My task ^Sunday at 05:00 =21 hours *every month on the first Sunday
or
My task ^Sunday at 05:00 =21 hours *every month on the 1st Sunday

However, while the above indeed creates a repeating task, RTM thinks this applies to the LAST Sunday, not the first. WTF?!?

I'm aware that “*every month on the first Sunday” isn't explicitly mentioned in the “Repeat every…” guide, but honestly: why not?

Cheers,
Klaus

Hi Klaus,
I've added this to our list to investigate.

In the meantime, "every month on the 1st Sunday" should work when editing the Repeat field; you may want to add the task and the repeat separately.

Hope this helps!

Adding first, then editing the repeat field does indeed work. Thanks for the workaround.
