How I organize my life using Org mode right now..
https://bledley.xyz/posts/2025-06-25-how-i-use-org-mode-part-one/
#Linux #a11y question with a long self-indulgent preamble: I have been using #emacspeak in the #terminal on #MacOS as my “daily driver” for all writing/notetaking/ #orgmode scheduling/todo organizing for about a month now. I am super in love with it, transformational for this low-vision writer/teacher/editor/producer. (1/8)
I appreciate that there's a plethora of customizable Emacs themes I can install and use. I've tried a couple, they look nice especially when working with code.
However I work with org mode almost all the time, for non-programming related purposes, there's no syntax to highlight here. It's all just walls of white text, and in this case, themes end up looking the same anyway.
A bit of #emacs help would be great, I would like to setup a capture template for #orgmode with conditional logic, are there any examples I can look at? I currently capture with https://forgemacs.bharathpalavalli.com/#org5210378 and the template I would like to modofy is https://codeberg.org/bmp/forgemacs/src/branch/pages/Templates/TeaNotesTemplate.org, whereein based on a certin key/input some sections don't have to be filled in while capturing.
I can now automatically share my reading log via mastodon, thanks to Emacs and Org-Mode.

I have started a new blog which will present musings on coding for my research in optimization and its application to industrial engineering problems. I code mostly in Julia and always using Emacs.

I will post here when new blog posts are posted. I'm hoping to create an RSS feed for the blog in due course.
The blog is written in org mode in Emacs (of course ).

People of Emacs and Org Mode:
Are there any packages to manage a project? I have projectile, but that's more for coding. I mean like a house move or fence build kinda project: something that has multiple todos and will take a protracted amount of time.
Failing any specific package for that, what about a org template for said project?

I'm trying out #emacs #orgmode and I'd like to get notifications on my phone. So I installed *orgzly*. I was under the impression that if I had my todo.org file in a synced folder, *orgzly* would pick up the changes automagicaly. So I have my org files on Nextcloud, and the phone updates the folder locally every 15min. But it looks like orgzly only picks up the changes when I open the app.
Anyone got a auto-sync working?

This #Journelly user review makes me so happy and proud.
Shawn, welcome to the #Emacs and #orgmode family!
Anyone curious, https://journelly.com let's you ease into org mode or ignore entirely. Entirely your call!
Does anyone know how to order #orgmode calendar entries?
I have my meetings.org file
```
* Meeting
** Event X
<2025-06-24 Tue 14:00-:15:00>
** Event Y
<2025-05-24 Sat 08:00-08:15>
```
and would like Event Y to be re-ordered before Event X. Is there a function for that?
Does anyone have any configuration examples/guides/resources on how I can make my org mode look better in emacs?
