Thank you very much! :)

At first impression it might seems, but once you understand the structure and how to navigate it, it’s really smooth.

Thank you, Krzysztof!

Hey! For the first question, depending on the app you are trying to sync Todoist with, there may be native integrations available. I believe there is something for Evernote and Notion. For the second question, I don’t think you can create a task in Todoist by simply writing some text in bullet points; you need a "trigger." Once you have a trigger (e.g., a simple "new row" in a Google Sheet), you can use platforms like Make.com or Zapier to create a task on Todoist. Following this concept, for instance, I built a command that allows me to send a task from Tana to ClickUp. This is just a very simple example, but you can map different data/properties and try to sync the apps as you want (as much as possible at least).

@@Marco_Mindstone basically I don't care about the note app. Are any app that can allow simple text-based outlines. With the ability to highlight some of the texts and create tasks out of them that automatically shoot over to todoist and can two-way sync with both platforms, allowing completing the task to happen in either the outline or in Todoist. Am I being more clear? I recognize their needs to be some trigger to make elements of the outline capturable as tasks, in some form or another. If I understand correctly, it will rely on both the API of some note app and the API of Todoist. I was hoping something like this could happen inside of obsidian, but frankly it could be literally any note app, potentially though one that is free. Obviously it will likely need an API, I'm guessing

@@zham61 That’s exactly the point. I think it can be done in Obsidian as well, but you need a plugin that allows you to do that. There was a plugin under development that had a two-way sync with Todoist and Obsidian in its roadmap, but I don’t know what’s the current state of that plugin or if it’s still in development.

@@Marco_Mindstone thank you so much for your help! I really appreciate the Timely feedback. Do you know much about coding or apis? There are so many open source text editors with apis, I figured this could be solved with a little more technical know-how than I have. I Am brand new to obsidian, where's a good place to start if my ultimate goal is to just accomplish the use case as I've described? Any other ideas or thoughts come to mind? Since you're so close to this space I bet you have a lot of insights. Thank you so much!

@@zham61 Happy to share thoughts :) I have basic coding knowledge and I'm familiar with APIs, using them to automate processes with Make.com. If your goal is to create an Obsidian plugin, you should know TypeScript and JavaScript. Here’s the guide to start building an Obsidian plugin: docs.obsidian.md/Plugins/Getting+started/Build+a+plugin

Thank you, Tony! Regarding your question, try to go to Settings > Projects and as "Link behavior" select "Open note". Cheers!

@@Marco_Mindstone Thank you very much Marco. You are the best👍👍👍

Hey! I don't think there is a way to use custom maps, but you can try with another community plugin called "Leaflet".

Absolutely! For me, it’s a must have for anyone who wants to have a great Obsidian canvas experience.

@@Marco_Mindstone 100%! I've been using it for the last few days and can confirm it is a gamechanger for me. I've reworked some canvases to leverage the linking (portals) and have created a given a presentation using the presentation mode. This is going to streamline a lot of my thought process and the work I do. I'm totally donating a contribution to the creator.

Hey, if you are talking about the arrow emojis next to the "previous" and "next" days/weeks/months/years, they are just for aesthetics!

Thank you!

Hi, unfortunately it seems there is an issue with unsplash. I quote what I found on github: "Okay, looking into this a bit more. It looks like source.unsplash.com has been depreciated for some time, and has only been left in place for legacy applications. They don't support it and I've seen a lot of other posts around reddit where people have had problems with it going back over a year. The supported method is to use their new API, which requires registering an application and getting an API key. I'm going to pursue this route and will make a PR to the plugin after some thinking, coding, and testing. In case source.unsplash.com stays down for an extended period of time, a temporary workaround would be to go directly to unsplash.com and download some backgrounds locally, add them to the plugin and then set the background theme to Local. It won't be as random or have as many images, but it will be better than the grey background!" Link to the source: github.com/andrewmcgivery/obsidian-beautitab/issues/54#issuecomment-2134235876

Thank you, Alan!

Hi Ritchie, unfortunately I think that the best way to do that is to simply copy/paste the card. At the current state there is no command that allows you to do that.

@@Marco_Mindstone ... That's a pity. Thanks for getting back to me. I appreciate it.

Thank you, Tez!

You can still play around with CSS and replicate it 😅

Hey, Ricardo! Thank you :) I must say that the main advantage of using Metadata Menu for this, lies in its feature that allows you to modify data directly within the query. If you don't need it, you can actually use the Projects plugin or just Dataview. Cheers!

@@Marco_Mindstone Thanks! That was exactly my doubt! I decided to install everything and I'm very happy with it🙌🏻 Cheers!

@@4richis Glad to hear that 😁

Thanks Alan! This is the URL: tana.inc/pricing

Hey! Actually not yet...maybe I should do it 🤔

Ciao Luca! Grazie per il tuo pensiero. E' sempre ben accetto! Diciamo che tutto dipende da quello che devi fare. Per quanto mi riguarda, Tana è l'unica app che mi ha fatto "allontanare" da Obsidian, ma concordo sul fatto che imparare ad usarla a 360° richiede del tempo (soprattutto per features riguardanti l'AI e i vari command nodes che puoi creare). Detto ciò, oserei dire però che per quanto riguarda la curva di apprendimento, non si discosta molto da Obsidian: a meno che tu non utilizzi Obsidian principalmente come app di testo, a seconda di quello che vuoi andare ad implementare all'interno del tuo vault, dovrai comunque investirci del tempo. Sono apps fantastiche e, per me, entrambe difficilmente rimpiazzabili.

Hey! Regardless of whether you call it a map of content or a table of content, this flexible concept serves as an index or overview of related notes on a specific topic. This can be as simple as a list of links or as complex as a structure with links, embeds, etc. This approach is very subjective, and it is dependent on your needs/preferences. In the vault, you'll find a starting point, but you can go as much granular as you want with queries, building the perfect "MOC"/"TOC"/Category for you.

Hey! Sorry to hear that. I just downloaded the vault to test it again but it's working for me. To create a new category note, make sure to "Right click" on the "Categories" folder and click on "New Note". This will trigger the category template. To help you out solving this issue, I added a command named "New Category Note" that you can run directly from the command palette. Try to use it and let me know if you continue to encounter any issue. If so, I will need more details, so I suggest you to join the Discord server or reach me out via DM on X. You can download the updated vault here: www.mindstoneconsulting.net/obsidian-vault-creation-episode-3-how-to-organize-your-notes/

Thank you very much, Sergio! Happy to hear that :)

Hi Farida, sorry to hear that. I tested it right now and it's working. I suggest you to join the Discord server and ask over there sharing more information about your issues. Without more information it's impossible to try help you out. Cheers!

Thank you!! All the things you listed should be achievable in Obsidian :)

@@Marco_Mindstone I have not figured out the auto-updating last-updated field yet, any hints?

@@raj-dsa Hey, you can install the Linter plugin. There is an option under the YAML tab that allows you to automatically insert the date the file was last modified.

Hey! To track any changes made within a file, I suggest you to set a backup of your vault using GitHub. This method creates a chronological history of any changes made within your vault directly inside the GitHub repository. You can find a video on how to set GitHub on my channel.

Thank you, Inga! Happy to hear that :) Next week, I'll start reviewing the majority of the vaults I've showcased in my videos. After reviewing, I'll upload them to my website. They will be available for download to everyone with an Insider membership (www.mindstoneconsulting.net/#/portal/)

Thank you very much! Glad to hear that :)

I second this statement, I went through so many videos that just didn't work before finding this one that actually takes you end to end with a successful result.

@@Reacter901 Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear that my video help you with that.

Thank you! :) To add personal notes to a movie, you just need to open the movie's note and write your thoughts within.

Unfortunately, the plugin doesn't provide a Google Calendar integration.

Hey, sorry to hear that. I've tested reinstalling the plugin and simply copying and pasting the template from the video description. It works perfectly for me, and I don't use any Google Book API. Could you give it another shot? There might have been some temporary glitches. If the problem persists, I recommend sharing some screenshots on my Discord for further help, or report the issue directly through the GitHub plugin repository. Cheers!

Thank you very much! Glad to hear that! :)

@@Marco_Mindstone Hello! Was wondering if you have the code for the templates? Sorry it's kinda hard to copy directly from the video. Thank you!

@@1700tt Hey! The entire vault is available for download for every Insider membership on my website mindstoneconsulting.net. You can find the link in the description :)

Hey, Guillermo! Thank you very much! You can try with the Metadata Menu option "Insert fileClass fields" under the "FileClass settings" section. Cheers!

@@Marco_Mindstone thanks for the information and for taking the time to reply. I'll give it a try!!

🙌🏻

Hey, Vladislavs! Which one exactly? If you are talking about the property section in general, maybe this introductory video I published time ago might be helpful: ruclips.net/video/1rG34uM71A4/видео.htmlsi=xnHurb-qs__Iwf-Y Cheers!

Hey! Happy to see you liked it! About Excalidraw, I agree with you. If you need a more complete tool for "visual thinking", you should definitely go with Excalidraw.

Hey, sorry to hear that you are encountering issues. Feel free to join the discord server where you can provide more info and screenshots so I can try to help you out. Cheers!

I'm sharing how I structure my system, and thought it would be helpful to build a vault from scratch to demonstrate! Looking forward to our conversation!

Here's the thing! I actually quite like Obsidian's default UI. So, I just prefer not to use a "too fancy" theme 😅

Absolutely, it's possible. Just use the tasks query. Once a task is marked as "completed" in a query, it automatically shifts to the bottom of the tasks list. However, this action cannot be performed outside of a query.

Hey, what you mean with "5 advance notes"?

@@Marco_Mindstone Like, i clicked download multiple times because i thought the first click doesnt work so i clicked download multiple times and i have 5 advance notes now

@@Myth_Investagator Oh you mean “Advanced Canvas”…try to open your vault folder, delete all the related files from there and reinstall it.

@@Marco_Mindstone ooooooh i see, thank you for your reply

Hi Nick, did you try to enable the "Syntax Highlighting on Desktop" option inside the Templater settings?

Hey, thank you very much! I don't know about the kindle sync plugin but maybe I'll take a look at it. Regarding the templater code, Obsidian treats the information inside the "<%---%>" as regular text instead of frontmatter. This prevents Obsidian from detecting metadata inside the template (e.g. during dataview queries). Cheers!
