been through about 6 notion videos and this one is actually the most useful one cause the use of each thing is clearly displayed and not convoluted as fuck
I don't know how many videos i've watched trough out the years, but I know this; this is by FAR the best guide/tutorial, or whatever, i've every watched on any topic on YT. So concise, simple, to the point, no BS and fast paced. I salute you, mate! Keep up the good work!
The way you can explain so much on Notion in such little time is amazing! The curation and script writing must’ve taken a lot of time! Thank you so much for the content! ❤️
I can't stretch how helpful this video is, I have been struggling with notion and always just end up deleting it, but now I know more and can happily use it with no confusion.
this is insane, i love the demonstration of so many features so quickly, an intelligent person can see the scope of capability within 20minutes from this demo. Way more powerful than Trello - Guess im switching over - Thank you !
Thank you so much bro figured notion would help journal the endeavours in my life right now but was struggling to fully understand it , boom first video I see taught me everything much love from SA❤️you a saint
Very well-structured video! Concise and Clear. A piece of advice is to use the white appearance to be clearer and visible on the video. Also, try to speak not so fast, because I can't understand it, causing me stress. Thank you so much!
Wow! Explanation at its best! So much useful info with focussed approach. Covering all minutest details and taking it to the next level step by step! And yeah I love your accent!! Enjoyed every bit of it! 👌🏼 God bless! And keep it coming. Subscribing you straight away!
Amazing video! I've never used notion, and am just starting to, and you really cleared things out for me, thanks! Must admit last 2mins were me not getting anything, but I'm sure eventually I will.
Great video. Thank you. You covered a ton. I appreciate the pace too. Let people rewind if they can't keep up. BTW - I had to rewind. 😊 Keep the advanced videos coming.
This is a great video. Also, voice very clear : don't have to strain to interpret words...THANKS! Great : think this is the most accessible video I've seen.
“Agradezco los subtítulos en español en tus videos. Es genial poder entender completamente el contenido. ¡Gracias por pensar en tu audiencia internacional!”
i think, i think you can do a great tutorial on any other software, you make it easy to understand. and the video is somehow not an hour long but you tought so much. seriously... if you want to, teach how to use other stuff too. really helpful
Joined the Notion Movement, loving it so far. I feel way more productive using this as my everything productivity tool. I was really hesitatany because I was really afraid that I would waste more time building things but a lot of the default tempaltes are simple and effective out of the box. I'm hoping to build a template of some sort that someone can leverage later on. Side note, I'm having problems using a giphy for the cover on pages. Anyone have nany idea what it could be? Tried the local installed app and the web browswer and nothing displays.
Just shareing, for those ppl want the progress bar be the emoji, just 2 times the byte of the length like this: slice("🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟", 0, 2 * round(prop("Completion") * 10)) + slice("💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀", 0, 20 - 2 * round(prop("Completion") * 10)) + " " + format(round(prop("Completion") * 100)) + "%"
I use a combination of premiere pro and after effects. Already have a video like that planned for the future, "How I use Notion to create videos about Notion", and this will include everything from the idea to publish.
Hi yes it has been replaced by the new Notion buttons. Just add a new button and use the "inset blocks" option and add in a bullet list. Then just give your button a name and an icon and now if you click the button it'll add a new bullet list. And if you want the outline around it just create a callout box set to the default color, give it a name and make it bold, underlined, and change the color and then just drag and drop the button inside.
Great video Chris, and excited to discover more about Notion through you. As a sidenote though, you do whizz through your explanations as if the viewer is as proficient as you. I get it, it must be almost common sense for you at this stage, but slow it down a bit and take us through your content like the beginners we are. ☺ thanks in advance!
I have a question. What command or shourtcut do you use to show the window to write the slice formula? Thank you to make this video. It helps me a lot'
11:15 Am I missing something or was this added natively since the upload of the video? I can also do that by just adding a 2 columns layout within another one. However, both solutions lead to a larger space between the heading than a 1 column layout. So I'm unsatisfied with both of them.
When customizing the buttons in Indify you can just select one of their color options and then change the background to dark mode or light mode to get that border. And the N O T E S is made just with using a space in between the letters 🙌🏼
@@chrisnotion How i can realize next functionality? Page PROJECT has inline dbs -> TASKS what contains TASK pages and BOOKMARK db what contains bookmark pages. In TASK page i have BOOKMARK db related view. PROJECT page my BOOKMARK show all of pages TASK page what contain related view show only BOOKMARK pages what has relation to this page. All what i want it's dynamicly show filtered pages without manual setting it in BOOKMARK related view (filter BOOKMARK where name equal to current page TASK what is opened)
Amazing stuff bro, thanks. Bro I would like to learn how to archive stuff and also be able to favorite pages that can automatically appear at the top of my dashboard
To archive just add a checkbox property to a database and name it archive, and filter your database to not show any database entries with the checkbox checked. You can also create an archived view where it only shows all your archived pages.
what's the difference between the free and the other paid ones also, does the free notion have access to what you have shown is this video? just curious
Yes the only reason you'd upgrade from Notion's free plan is if you want to use Notion automations or add team members, otherwise you can do everything on the free plan. The main difference between the free templates and paid dashboards is that the templates is just a single system solving one problem, whereas the dashboard is multiple systems combined into one large system solving multiple problems. Dashboard = multiple templates, template = 1 system.
Hi Chris, being a Notion noob (I know, I was sooo late to the party), I really appreciate your content, I find it very helpful ❤ I'm considering purchasing your Life OS Dashboard template, and just wonder how customizable it is? Can I remove the blocks I don't need without compromising the overall structure of the template? I`m only going to use it for my personal life, personal projects and studies, so I don't need features like CRM, and I probably won't use the habit tracker. I would however like to sync the to do-list with Todoist and the calendar with Gcal via Notion automations. Thanks!
Hi yes you can remove and add stuff as you'd like. You can always access the the original link again inside your Gumroad library in case you mess something up :)
The progress bar code is not working correctly. The value of the property "percentage" is not being set properly, so the progress bar is not functioning as expected. How to fix that? Function slice expects 2 arguments, but only 1 was provided. [0,19] Argument of type text does not satisfy function slice. [6,18] End here is the error
Yes absoloutely. You can just click share in the top right and publish your Notion page and use that link just like any other website. You can also build an actual website or blog using Notion, have a video about that here: ruclips.net/video/1objM8BPj38/видео.html
This is a great video!! I felt right at home the moment I heard your Afrikaans accent😂 Your video is really helpful and everything went smoothly when I did it myself except for the creative progress bar, everytime I tried to put in the code it said this: "Argument of type text does not satisfy function slice. [6,18] Percentage is not defined. [23,33] Argument of type text does not satisfy function slice. [48,60]" I copy and pasted the code so I never changed anything yet I still keep getting this. Do you know how I could fix it?
A roll up will only work if you have a relation on that database, so make sure you have the relation property showing on both and that database is connected to another one
Do you know if you can cross out events on Notion calendar... once you complete them?... I haven't found a calendar app where you can cross out tasks once done

Hi! can you explain how you make "mental notes" can not find how to make this "add note"
Hi yes it has been replaced by the new Notion buttons. Just add a new button and use the "inset blocks" option and add in a bullet list. Then just give your button a name and an icon and now if you click the button it'll add a new bullet list. And if you want the outline around it just create a callout box set to the default color, give it a name and make it bold, underlined, and change the color and then just drag and drop the button inside.

Great video. I learned a lot, even in 2024. But let's not say you don't need to know how to code and then have me coding at 16:30. Crazy.
I have a question. What command or shourtcut do you use to show the window to write the slice formula? Thank you to make this video. It helps me a lot'
Hi it's just a formula property. If you click inside the property the formula window will open :)
11:15 Am I missing something or was this added natively since the upload of the video? I can also do that by just adding a 2 columns layout within another one. However, both solutions lead to a larger space between the heading than a 1 column layout. So I'm unsatisfied with both of them.
You can just include more empty blocks and also drag the grey bar in the middle to change the spacing
I setup the bookmark gallery database just like you showed but its not appearing as an option on the web clipper. Any ideas?
Make sure you're logged into the correct Notion account on Google and that you're typing in the exact database name.
Thanks, very useful video
How to change button style property as title collor of button? Also how do you change 'NOTES' indent between letters?
