Update all future instances ONLY

Really annoying, I wanted to remove a re-occurring tasks for future dates, and clicked delete for all instances, thinking it would only remove the future ones only, and not ones I had marked done.... and ALL my past tasks for this with tracked time were deleted from my entire data based. Really upset by it because it's a lot of lost data. Not sure if you can recover this any way? Error prevention here needs re-working.

Will be adding a confirmation step before allowing users to bulk delete all instances
Chris
Ahhh so sorry about this Lucy
The way to do this is to actually click "Stop repeating" which will keep all past instances but remove all future ones
I'll add a confirmation step for the "Delete all instances" button so users really can confirm what's going on. I can see how dangerous this can be

While I haven't encountered this, yes this is important and I would be equally upset if all previous occurrences were to be deleted.
Now that I think of it, is there an "undo" button in Ellie?
Chris
Mohammed There is an undo button but sadly not for this recurring task action :( just for deleting a single event
