 # 1. Automatic next action labels
 
-The program looks for pre-defined tags in the name of every project, section, or parentless tasks in your Todoist account to automatically add and remove `@next_action` labels. To create a simple list of all your next actions you can add a new filter in your Todoist with e.g.: @next_action & #project_name.

The result will be a clear, current and comprehensive list of next actions without the need for further thought.

 ## Sequential processing
 
-If a project, section, or parentless task ends with `--`, both the parentless tasks and its sub-tasks will be treated as a priority queue and the most important will be labeled. Importance is determined by order in the list.
+If a project, section, or parentless task ends with a dash `-`, the tasks will be treated sequentially in a priority queue, where only the first task that is found is labeled. If a task contains sub-tasks, the first lowest task is labeled instead.

 ## Parallel processing
 
-If a project, section, or parentless task name ends with `//`, both the parentless tasks and its sub-tasks will be treated as parallel. A waterfall processing is applied, where the lowest possible sub-tasks are labelled.

 ## Advanced labelling
 
-If a project or section ends with `-/`, all parentless tasks are processed sequentially, and its sub-tasks in parallel.
+Projects, sections, and (parentless) tasks can be used to specify how the levels under them should behave. This means that:
 
-[See example](https://i.imgur.com/uGJFeXB.gif)
+- A project can accept up to three tags, to specify how the sections, parentless tasks, and subtasks should behave.
+- A section can accept up to two tags, to specify parentless tasks and subtasks should behave.
+- A task at any level can be labelled with one tag, to specify how its sub-tasks should behave.
 
-If a project or section ends with `/-`, all parentless tasks are processed in parallel, and its sub-tasks sequentially.
+Tags can be applied on each level simultaneously, where the lower level setting will always override the one specified in the levels above.
 
-[See example](https://i.imgur.com/5lZ1BVI.gif)
+### Shorthand notation
 
-Any parentless task can also be be given a type by appending `//` or `--` to the name of the task. This works if there is no project type, and will override a previously defined project type.
+If fewer tags then needed are specified, the last one is simply copied. E.g. if a project has the tag `=` this is similar to `===`, or if a project has `=-` this is similar to `=--`. Same for sections, `=` is similar to `==`.
 
-[See example 1 with a parallel project](https://i.imgur.com/d9Qfq0v.gif)
+### Project labeling examples
+- If a project ends with `---`, only the first section has tasks that are handled sequentially.
+- If a project ends with `=--`, all sections have tasks that are handled sequentially.
+- If a project ends with `-=-`, only the first section has parallel parentless tasks with sequential sub-tasks.
+- If a project ends with `--=`, only the first section and first parentless tasks has parallel sub-tasks.
+- If a project ends with `==-`, all sections and all parentless tasks will have sub-tasks are handled sequentially.
+- If a project ends with `=-=`, all sections will have parentless tasks that are processed sequentially, but all sub-tasks are handled in parallel.
+- If a project ends with `-==`, only the first section has parallel tasks.
+- If a project ends with `===`, all tasks are handled in parallel.

+### Section labeling examples
+- If a section ends with `--`, only the first parentless task will have sub-tasks that are handled sequentially.
+- If a section ends with `=-`, all parentless tasks will have sub-tasks that are handled sequentially.
+- If a section ends with `-=`, only the first parentless task has sub-tasks that are handled in parallel.

+- If a task ends with `=`, the sub-tasks are handled in parallel.
+
+### Kanban board labeling
+A standard workflow for Kanban boards is to have one actionable task per column/section, which is then moved to the next column when needed. Most often, the most right column is the 'done' section. To ensure that every column only has one labelled task and the last column contains no labelled tasks, you could do either of two things:
+- Add the `=--` tag to the project name, and disable labelling for the 'done' section by adding `*` to either the start or end of the section name.
+- Add the `--` tag to every section that you want to have labels.
 
-Note: Todoist sections don't like to have a slash in the name, it will automatically change to an underscore. The default label options will recognize this to make it work regardless. Of course you're always free to define your own custom label symbols.
 
 ## Start/Due date enhanced experience
 
 Two methods are provided to hide tasks that are not relevant yet.
 
-- Prevent labels by defining a start-date that is added to the task itself. The label is only assigned if this date is reached. You can define the start-date by adding 'start=DD-MM-YYYY'. On the other hand the start date can be defined as several days or weeks before the due-date by using either 'start=due-<NUMBER_OF_DAYS>d' or 'start=due-<NUMBER_OF_WEEKS>w'. This is especially useful for recurring tasks!

 # 2. Regenerate sub-tasks in recurring lists
 
-The program looks for all parentless tasks with a recurring date. If they contain sub-tasks, they will be regenerated in the same order when the parentless task is checked. Todoist Premium is not required for this functionality.
+*DISCLAIMER: This feature has been disabled for now due to two reasons:*
+- *Regeneration is a [core feature of Todoist nowadays](https://todoist.com/help/articles/can-i-reset-sub-tasks). This was made possible thanks to all of you who are using and supporting Autodoist, which resulted in Doist to include this too! Thank you all for making this happen!*
+- *In the new REST API v2 it's currently not possible to see completed tasks, which makes regeneration a bit difficult.*
+
+*Nevertheless, the Todoist implementation is still more limited than Autodoist, it does not restore the original order of the sub-tasks, and deeper sub-tasks can't be reset. I therefore believe it is still useful for this feature to be re-enabled in the near future.*
