How to change the due date in repeating tasks ?

How to change the due date in all the repeating tasks in that series?
Because, when I change the due date in task, it doesnot affect the subsequent task in that series.

In a repeating task series that uses "every", the due date that you set at the time you create the first task is essentially the due date for the first occurrence of the task. Due dates for future occurrences of the task series will be based on the repeat interval that you define.

In a series that is repeating using "after", the next occurrence's due date will be based on the time you complete the task, not on the due date.

You can read more about the difference between these two types of repeating tasks here. If the due date of the task does not seem to be affecting the due date of the next task in the series, it's possible you are using an "after" repeat.

Hope that helps!
