I thought that would be a general problem but so far I did not find a suitable script for that. What I want to do is setting tasks in Evernote that show up automatically in Omnifocus with the note attached.
In detail it would look like that:
I would set an alarm to a note in Evernote - with or without due date.
Then I would run the script that…
adds an Omnifocus task for every alarm in Evernote and setting the due date accordingly if specified and including the URL to the note to the task
deletes the alarm in Evernote
adds the tag “inOF” within Evernote.
A start could be that script of Frank Meeuwsen:
Has anybody an idea how to solve that? Any help greatly appreciated!
Solved: I used a script made by Frank Meeuwsen and just tuned it a bit to select reminders, transfer the due date correctly and leave a tag “inOF” in Evernote afterwards. Adaptation is very basic, but working: All your Evernote reminders will result in a OF inbox item, reminders in Evernote are deleted. Try on your own risk.
########### SETTINGS ###########
– this is the tag you use for flagging in Evernote
– here I use review (case sensitive)
property todoTag : “review”
property transferTag : “inOF”
– the name of the task starts by default with "Review: " (without quotes)
– change this to your liking
property taskPrefix : "Review: "
– Do you want to transfer the original reminder? Default = true
property transferReminder : true
– Do you want to delete the original reminder? Default = true
property deleteReminder : true
