    Your custom config for task handling really helps me a lot. Great video. I really appreciate your ability to condense and simplify something complicated into practical bite-sized pieces. I'm looking forward to the project management video!

    Fantastic video, love the workflow. Super helpful, thanks for posting!
    Wanted to share that I was copying the queries for my own use and noticed that the "On this day" section seems to also include the "Next" section, which if you copy verbatim breaks your config.edn. Thanks for the great content!

    Excellent video! I'm relatively new to logseq and I had no idea about default-queries. It's an amazingly flexible tool and your videos are doing a great job of introducing these to us! My workflow is slightly different where I tag all incoming items with an inbox tag and I used that instead of widgets. Helps me quickly view things on my plate and classify them whenever I have a moment.

    • @toolsontech

      Using an inbox tag sounds like a good idea, I might need to figure out if I can build a query that just gives me all unorganized tasks that way I can just hit a TODO in there and organize later. Then again, an inbox tag is easy enough and would give way more control. Pondering on this now....

    Hi, I set better default journal queries thanks to you. I realized that when I open the current journal page in the right panel, I don't see you're default queries anymore, but I would like to. Do you know how is it possible to do that ?
    Thanks, you're job is awesome !

    thank you very much for this great workflow!
    Is it possible to only show only the main task in the query or the main task collapsed when there are subtasks?

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  4 місяці тому

      The query should show subtasks that you can collapse as needed. As long as the subtasks are child items in the outline and the main task is still TODO/DOING

      @@toolsontech thanks for the fast reply! You can collapse them, but i wanted to collapse them by default. If I collapse them and return to the journal page, they are back to default (non-collapsed)

    great video, what is the difference between your bento box and using the deadline?

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  Рік тому +1

      Thanks and good question. While deadlines are great of keeping track of things that need to get done the bento are the active things on my plate. Meaning that even if I have multiple things that need to get done, I might just focus on 1 or 2 things before I worry about anything else. If you're talking about my scheduled query, these are usually small requirements and not really deadlines. Say I need to start a project on X date then the schedule is only to start a large task that I put in bento with subtasks at that date, not try and get it finished.

    Thank you for the video. I understand that TODO, Scheduled, Bento, and Widget appears at the bottom. Is there a way to view the entire collection of widget, bento - each on its single page? thanks!

    • @toolsontech
      @toolsontech  Рік тому

      yes, while I talk about adding these to your config you can just make a page and just a query block to have the results in there, you make a query block with < and then search query

      @toolsontech  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, the default queries only show up on the journal day, you should be able to copy the queries to individual pages if you need them there using the advanced query block. It does pull the data from the complete graph, that's one of the great things of using queries.

      I mostly used Dracula Theme, but adding emoji's into my Query titles to make them easier to look at. These days I'm back on standard with the only exception being a purple accent color and a small css tweak to make bold look orange to highlight it even more.

    For some reason, when I copy and paste your code into my config.edn file, it's asking for correct bracketing and won't read it. I'm just a beginner and can't find an error. I followed your instructions about positioning, triple checked. Nothing. I looked for syntax checkers, nothing that I found did anything. I really want to use the code, but stuck now. Any ideas please? Otherwise, great information throughout your channel and finding a lot of tips are working beautifully....just not this one. Cheers
