Start dates on tasks

[Alan Moore 7]

Not sure if this is possible at the moment but I'd like the ability to add start dates to tasks. This is a feature that seems missing from many task managers (they have due dates, of course).

For example, I want to start a new project in 2 weeks time, I need the task/project to start in 2 weeks time (and keep out of the way until then), repeat on a daily basis and have a due date when it will stop repeating.

Thanks!

Youy can already do that as a repeating task.

I've always used the Due date interchangeably to do on, complete by or start on. It depends on the activity. I don't think about it. It just feels intuitive for me.

Thanks @Mike P for the nudge to think of repeating tasks differently. I've always used them for things like 'pay software subscription' when it needs to be done, say, monthly.

Thanks, Mike. That’s exactly what I was looking for!
