REPEAT complete keep REPEAT state

Once a repeating task is completed and I mark done its state goes to TODO instead of staying REPEAT. I thought setting the property :RETURN_TO_STATE: t Would fix but that doesn’t seem to be it. What am I missing?

beorg doesn't currently understand the RETURN_TO_STATE property. You can set org-todo-repeat-to-state in your init.org file if you always return a repeating task to the REPEAT state. For example:

(set! org-todo-repeat-to-state "REPEAT")

See https://www.beorg.app/learning/initorg/ for details on how to create an init.org file.

Thank you. That did the trick. I did find I had to quit and relaunch beorg to pick up the init.org change. Not sure if there’s some other trick to reload it.
