Is there a way to filter due from tommorow to before next week?

[arkosno]

I have tried:

due after today|before next week

due after today|next week

due after today|after this week

due tomorrow|next week

due tomorrow|before next week

due tomorrow|after this week

the goal is to remove today's tasks and display this week's task in the data view query

I'm currently running "due in this week" as an alternative

As a general tip, if you are struggling with queries, especially date ones, add a new line explain and it will tell you how you interpreted the dates in your query.

What is the | trying to do?

I am not sure that I exactly understand what you are trying to do, but these may help:

1. Doing due after today with explain gives:

due after today =>
  due date is after 2023-05-23 (Tuesday 23rd May 2023)

2. Doing due before next week with explain gives:

due before next week =>
  due date is before 2023-05-29 (Monday 29th May 2023)

So putting it together, from my understanding of what you want, this should give the desired effect:

```tasks
due after today
due before next week
explain
```

Oh wait, that is different logic from the subject line of this request (which is what I was replying to initially)

```tasks
# remove today's tasks 
NOT (due today)

# display this week's task
due in this week

# see how the dates are interpreted:
explain
```

So I don't think I really understand what you are trying to do, but the following pages in the documentation give more information:

in the data view query

I can't help you with dataview - that's a different plugin! 😄

Thanks, Clare 😄 , it worked like a charm.

I was trying to use the pipe symbol to chain "due" filters, but I guess I miss read the documentation.

Interesting. The pipe symbol is trying to convey that you can pick any one of the options that are separated by a pipe. Maybe that's too technical a way of expressing it.

If you want combine filters together with AND or OR, that's a whole separate page of the docs ('Combining Filters', I think it's called)
