QuickSilver action didn't work, then did, now doesn't.
I installed kGTD about a week ago, and have found it to be very useful. However, I’ve had huge difficulties with the QuickSilver action. Basically, the action has no effect: the text I enter in QS doesn’t get transferred to kGTD.
I didn’t have QuickSilver when I first installed kGTD, but was convinced to re-install it when I read about the kGTD QuickSilver action — so I thought the fact that I installed QS after installing kGTD might have something to do with it. But just reinstalling kGTD (including compiling the QS action) didn’t work. I wound up deleting all the kGTD scripts and actions, and reinstalling again; after this, the action finally worked — for about a day. Now it’s not working again, and even deleting the scripts & actions and reinstalling kGTD doesn’t fix it.
Any ideas?

This could be resolved by a restart. I am new to kGTD, though I’m a long time QS user. I am starting to use that action more and more. The QS action places new tasks in the “inbox” so be sure to look there and then assign it a proper context (and project) later.

Yes, I’ve tried all the obvious things like restarting (including restarting the computer). Thanks, though.

The Installation
The Installation instructions recommend re-compiling the script, Send to kGTD.scpt, when installing:
I don’t know why your set-up would work and then stop, but maybe this will help.
The other QS problem that seems to come up a lot is that the path to the data file gets messed up or out-of-date. It’s stored in ~/Library/Preferences/com.kinkless.kgtd.plist.
If you have Quicksilver set
If you have Quicksilver set to auto update then it’s a good idea to try the recompile on the script as Paul links to above.

QS & kGTD is spotty for me as well.
I’ve tried all of the above suggestions with no solution. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn’t.
The whole QS/kGTD feels like I’m using windows again. “X doesn’t work in. Oh, just restart the program or reboot and it’ll work.”
sigh
I just restarted and reopened my kGTD file and discovered something added that wasn’t showing up before. No idea how/why. Just is. Trying to add a Task now, nothing happens.
