listing files in a folder that doesn't have any not done tasks?

[jbergenudd]

I want to have at least one next action that isn't done for each project that i have.
I have each project as a file in one folder.

perhaps it's more of a data-view query than a tasks query?

Hi, I don’t understand. Can you give some example Markdown that shows what you want.

I have in my projects folder

1. some files that have tasks

- [ ] some task
- [x] a done task

2. some files that have no tasks at all

3. some files that just have done tasks

- [x] done task 1
- [x] done task 2
- [x] done task 3

i want to catch 2 & 3 so no projects fall behind because I haven't thought about what should happen next. I won't always mark them done in the file and see that it was the last available task. I may check them off in any number of dynamic lists in other files in obsidian.

Ah right, that really helps.

The Tasks plugin indexes task links in Obsidian, not files, so no, it won’t help you in this situation.

Ok thanks! I’ll ask in the data viewforums then!
