[BUG] Widget reloads completed item as incomplete

[86ul]

Describe the bug

On my FairPhone 3 with LineageOS 21, I experience with recurring tasks (weekly groceries, cleaning, garbage, etc) that after checking an item as complete, the widget refresh (normal), but adds the completed task back to the list as incomplete (abnormale).

When I check it off again as complete inside this widget, then JTX does not just that item in the series, but completes the full series as finished.

However, when I go straight to the app itself (either through the widget, or launcher), JTX behaves like expected: it only checks off the item as completed, without completing the full series.

To Reproduce

1. Checking an item of a series as completed
2. Noticing the widget refreshes
3. Noticing the widgets reloads the completed item
4. Checking this item again as completed
5. Finding this item/series back as fully completed

Expected behavior

Checking only that specific item as completed, and refresh the list with neither this item, nor completed the series of that item

@patrickunterwegs is there fix for this issue, which seem not related to #1652

Hi @86ul , sorry for not coming back to this earlier.
I couldn't reproduce this issue, it's really strange what you describe.
When you open the series (meaning when you open one instance and then click on "Go to series", is that element checked?

@patrickunterwegs thanks for checking in on this issue. Because I am already used to use the workaround (opening app, and then completing a task with a series), I have to reproduce it myself too again. Just to verify that it is still relevant on LOS21 of 25th December of 2024 with jtx 2.09.04.ose...

Edit: although the series are no longer also checked as completed, I have to check the task as completed twice. With the first try, the widget refreshes. With the second try, only the task itself got checked as completed.

Edit after update: still present in jtx 2.10.00.ose

Thanks @86ul !
Can you try one more thing: When you check a task in the widget and it doesn't work, can you open the app and check if the given task is checked in the app?
I would like to know if the action was actually not done or if the widget was refreshed before the action of checking the task is stored in the database.

@patrickunterwegs just tried it: after completing a task in a series in the widget, the task is marked as completed and the widget refreshes. After refreshing, the task is no longer marked as completed, neither on the widget, nor in the app. In order to mark this task in a series, I have to mark this task in the app as completed.

Thanks @86ul , as it seems to work for most other users (and as I can't reproduce it), I can only try something. I have an idea and I'll make the change now.

@86ul , I have made the change, it shouldn't affect other users, but there is a chance that this issue could be solved. It would be great if you could check once 2.10.1 is available. I'll prepare a beta probably today and release it maybe next weekend.
