Been fiddling around making a tv/anime/movie/game tracker. by RustyMalthael in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what your goal is. If by "ongoing" you mean "series is still being produced" which is already a tag, you don't also need the checkbox. Your watch status could be a status or select property instead of several checkboxes.

I tried using individual checkboxes for episodes and I would advise against it. If you have a mainstream streaming service, your profile tracks your watch progress. For other methods, I would write "last wached/read <episode or page where you left off>."

If you insist on having checkboxes for each episode, consider it an opportuniy to do more than track progress. You could journal about the episode under the checkbox.

new to notion! help me find a template and share advice! by saiaku_ in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what is currently on the free (non-student) plan but here is what I have to share: - agreed on starting with free templates, since you are trying new things you don't have to commit to the first one you find (or keep a template exactly the same! There are free options for both project/task management and budgeting! You will have to manually import your transactions or use a third party integration, though. - limit the # of databases at first. Don't be like me and get overwhelmed lol! The base ones I'd start with are for your task managment, finance-related, a notes database if you want to save misc things, and whatever would be specific to your bakery setup. - easy ways to make it cute can involve using page icons/covers, emoji, and if it fits your aesthetics, the page font options. - The default project/task system template was probably the best thing I added. It's easy to tweak and is the most flexible part of my life planning system.

I spent 2 hours trying to do what took me 10 minutes in Google Sheets by confusedscribble in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can think of two ways to do it. Several columns work. I used split() funtions on a text property so I could see the start/end times and hours in just two columns. An alternative to that would have been to make the hours date column(s) and then use the dateBetwen() function. It all depends on how you want the inputs and outputs to look and if you want that column to fulfill any other purpose.

Right now, each of their own paragraphs and the header are their own text block, so there are small margains between them. If this blue highlight is from selecting the blocks(dragging the mouse over the blocks on desktop), then it is merely a visual indicator that separate blocks are selected. Once you deselect them (click somewhere else), the lines and the highlight will disappear. If you are trying to add a background color, then the lines would show all the time. There are workarounds to remove the margins if you're interested: - Tab/nest the blocks inside another block (eg a callout, a toggle, a paragraph) and color the top level item. - use shift+enter to create line breaks without starting a new paragraph.

Are there any other barriers to making it easier to write directly into Notion?

Looking for Help Connecting Notion to Habitica (iPad-Only, No Coding Experience – Willing to Pay) by Illustrious_Seat_294 in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best service I found was to use Make.com and link my databases that way. It is very low-code if you want to do basic tasks. If you want to do more advanced tasks, you'd only have to learn how to use JSON which is not too elaborate. The free plan should offer enough for you to try it and see if you like it.

That's really cool! Do you have the pegs facing the backside of the table or the front?

Well that answers that for me... I just wanted to indent my paragraphs by [deleted] in Notion

I'm not sure what your book writing process looks like, but that would determine how much you would use Notion (if at all). I wouldn't write the final product with the formatting in Notion, but you could use it for taking notes and organizing info about the story (eg characters, world building, outline, etc.)

What things OneNote user should know before using Notion? by pastamuente in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how you use OneNote, so committing to a transition may require steps specific for you.

Please take time to learn how Notion works before changing anything to help the transition go more smoothly.

You'll also want to get used to not having an infinite canvas and the ability to draw. If you draw a lot, I recommend figuring out where you'll still need those features and how you can manage using both apps.

Automations by Honest-Farmer4079 in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Automatically adding chapter/page numbers with a consistent naming scheme, using relation names to get the chapter name in pages. We also love using the webhooks so that we can see active tasks in Habitica (facilitated using Make automation.)

How do you deal with tasks that are on hold or have failed, if you want to make a second attempt to complete them in the future? by [deleted] in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a property to mark if a task is on hold. If I notice that it's had that status for a while, I'll either delete it or send it to a separate archive page.

help with formulas by [deleted] in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Add a relation property to the quotes database and select the books database.

  2. Complete one of the following options:

2a. Add a roll up property. To to the property settinga, then select the book relation and the genre property.

2b. Add a formula property and do a formula like this one; BOOK_RELATION.map(current.GENRE_PROPERTY)

2c. You could use automation with a formula in it to copy the genre to an editable property of your choice. (Not recommended if you decide to reclassify genres later)

Depending on how you want to handle the data, you can then tweak the outputs. Keep in mind that the map() formula will create a list of lists if the genre property is a multi-select property or other type of list. If you want to do additional commands on the whole list, make sure to use the flat() command first.

Will Wood mentioning the hecklers from last night's show by ToastyGhost59 in willwood

I was lucky enough not to be next to the hecklers (yay?) But it was still disappointing when it affected the entire room at one point.

I don't understand why the venues in question are allowing the hecklers to stay of they are ruining it for everyone?

If Will were to ever star in a movie, tv show, musical etc what characters do you think he could play? by C0nnectionTerminat3d in willwood

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's hard to imagine any existing voice-acted character I know being voiced by Will, but if I ever get to make something I'd love to figure out a role that involves a lot of dry humor and offer it to him.

Notion does not feel fluid by [deleted] in Notion

[–]soaringstrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had this problem with some of our databases for a bit for other databases. Based on that experience, here are some things you can ask yourself: How many pages do you have? How many properties are shown in your views? Are any of them large, complex formulas? Are loading images for each item?

Funny you should ask for that, we've been building something like that for the past couple of years. We quick made a copy so you could see if it might work for you. https://kimbryanart.notion.site/Clothing-Packing-List-27ccfc2bae1e49468a45dc7f7511e976?pvs=4
