Problem with repeating tasks

I found a problem with repeating tasks. For some repeating tasks, when I marked the task complete, the new task was created with the incorrect start date. For example, I had a task set to repeat daily from completion date which I marked complete on 8/4 and it created a new task with a start date of 8/28. With further investigation, I may have found what causes this problem to appear.
Previously, I had enabled "Start Date" field, but not the "Due Date" field. I enabled the "Due Date" field and found that some tasks had a start date of today or in the future but due date set in the past. It was not my intention to have any due dates, since I do not want to use the field. I found that, if I have a repeating task with start date set of today and due date set in the past and then complete the task, the new task will have the correct due date, but the start date is set to a weird date in the future. For example, I created a task with a start date of today, 8/6, and due date of 7/1, set to repeat daily from the completion date. The new task was created with a due date of 8/7, which is correct, but with a start date of 9/12, which is weird. I think this should be fixed to create the new task with a start date and due date of 8/7, for a task sent to complete daily from the completion date. Since my desire is to use start dates only and not due dates, I found that the new task is created with the correct start date if the due date is empty. |

Thanks for reporting this. We will investigate why tasks are not repeating correctly when the due-date is behind the start-date.
