Description
When editing tasks via Task Genius, I noticed inconsistent and uncontrollable behavior regarding task time handling across different views.
Inbox view:
Regardless of whether a task already has a time or not
Editing any part of the task via Task Genius
→ The task time is always overwritten to 20:00 of the task’s set date
Example:
Before editing:
- Example task 2026-01-01 14:00
After editing the task in Inbox view:
- Example task 2026-01-01 20:00
This also happens if the task originally has no time at all.
Other views (table / list, etc.):
If the task already has a time, editing does not change the time
If the task has a date but no time, editing will automatically add 20:00 of that date
Currently, there is no setting to control:
Whether an existing explicit task time should be preserved when editing
Whether a default time should be automatically added
Expected behavior
Editing a task should not overwrite an existing explicit time
Or, provide a setting option to control this behavior (e.g. preserve time / auto-add default time)
Question
Is this behavior intentional by design, or is it a bug?
Is it possible that I am using the plugin incorrectly?
I couldn’t find any related explanation or setting in the documentation.
Environment
Obsidian version: 1.11.5
Task Genius version: 9.13.1
OS: macOS Tahoe 26.2
Note: This behavior also occurs when Task Genius is the only enabled plugin.
