orgmode auto-update todo-count
Table of Contents
I have an orgmode item that looks like this:
** STARTED [#A] Planning, Emails & Social [48/56]
<2020-03-23 Mon 08:15-09:00 +1d>
This item is a target for my capture-from-email, so TODO items are constantly added beneath. The result is that the count always end up as [0/0] in my agenda until I manually visit the headline and do a C-c # to update it to the proper count; I’m not sure why this is, but I would love to fix it somehow. Suggestions from r/emacs led me to an answer.
