    Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you know I uploaded a new Notion video answering some common questions that were left on this video! Most of the questions were about my agenda, toggles, links in my content planner, and how to use my habit tracker, but I also updated my agenda to fix the issue I was having with columns disappearing when dropping them in a toggle. I also updated my template with the changes from the video, so watch it here: ruclips.net/video/KkxQjXr9sho/видео.html and I hope I was able to answer your questions! Thank you guys so much for your support!! ♡

    To keep the format of "new week" for your archive, instead of dragging it into the toggle cut and copy it into the toggle. The columns will remain the same! I also just made the week a toggle in the template so it saves me a step later. So for the template I followed each step in the video, but made the "week #:Month#-#" into a toggle in the template. Then copy and pasted the days and calendar into the "week #:Month#-#" toggle. That way when I use the template for new week it's already set up and when I want to archive the week I just drag and drop everything and the format stays the same. Just takes out a couple steps from every week. Hope that makes sense!

  • @matthewlawrence3333
    @matthewlawrence3333 3 года назад +4

    Hey! Just a fyi that I stumbled across while messing around my with archive template. If you'd like to keep the integrity of the columns while moving it to the archives, what you need to do is - after you have created the toggle list - use the 6 dots to move the toggle list (with the week/term) upwards by one space. What's more important is that it is no longer on the same column line, but is on the preceding one. Then, once you highlight and drag the days in, it all stays within their nice columns - even the calendar is placed well.
    Hope it helps 😊

    I used your free template as a jumping-off point and customized it to my needs using your tips and I just want to say thank you because I have yet to find a way to make a clean weekly agenda until I found your video and your template was just perfect! I was able to make it work for both my school/ homework tasks and my separate appointment/date-oriented agenda as well as organize all of my other things like budget and my project and blog planner. You are amazing!!

  • @elipapa6650
    @elipapa6650 3 года назад +12

    I accidentally discovered how to keep the columns in place:
    Instead of turning JUST the old week's header into a toggle and then dragging the rest into the toggle, you have to select the WHOLE old week, not manually one by one, but using the 6 dots on the left side, at the very begin of the template, so you select it all in one big block, then you name it and it's finally ready to be dragged in the archive.
    I'm sorry if this explanation is messy, english is not my first language, I hope this is still helpful!

    Instead of turning the old week into a toggle, make it a toggle initially in the template that way you don’t have to keep making it a toggle and put it in the archive. Plus it will be exactly the way you designed it to be.
