Change in tasks that repeat daily?

ian.eschbacher says:
I have several tasks that repeat daily, using repeat:"Every 1 day". What used to happen if I went, say, a week without doing them, was I would then have 6 overdue instances of the task, and 1 for the current day.

Within the last month or so, I've noticed a change to where new tasks aren't generated until I completed the overdue one. So now if I go without doing a task for a week, I just have one week old instance of the task.

Is this behavior expected, and if so, is there a way to switch back to the old way?

Hi ian.eschbacher,
For tasks that use an "every" repeat (such as "every 1 day"), the behavior you were experiencing before (where new tasks are generated whether you completed the last occurrence or not) is the correct behavior.

Would you be able to contact us so we can get some details on these tasks?

Thanks!

I've been having the same problem since about the same time period, and I would prefer to have the older behavior.
