      Hi, How do you display the emoji view in rating to choose the black star?

    After watching several other videos regarding reading lists/tracking reading/digitizing my physical bookshelf, yours led me to start over on Notion (I’m new to the app) and create something inspired by your methodology. Thank you so much for sharing your process so clearly and in such detail. You gained a new subscriber and I look forward to exploring your other content. Sending my gratitude ❣️

    Wow what a great video I never thought of during L style page. Since I only been books I have finished listening to or read. But now I'll be going back and improve it more.
    I thinking how would you set up a archive section? Like if I want to archive all of the books I did in 2021?

    This is one of the easiest to follow tutorials I've seen. Thanks for taking the time to make it for us. Two questions:
    1. Can the main database be shifted to a separate page or would I need to have separate to begin with?
    2. Where are the cover images you linked with stored? Are they on a separate Notion page, or are they on Flickr or photo bucket or whatever site people use for storage these days?
    Thanks again ❤.

    One small correction, for days spent formula you need to add 1 to get correct number

    Thank you so much for this. I’m going to incorporate this and make some changes to the reading list that I currently have in Notion.
    Also, I used the formula for number of days to finish reading a book in my completed tasks to calculate number of days it takes for me to complete tasks. 😊👍🏽

    I’m wondering if you could help me out with a finance formula… I can’t seem to figure it out.
    I’m a server at a restaurant and basically want to track my tips (cash + credit card) + hourly wage and be able to get a total at the end of the day of the average of how much I make… does that make sense? Is that something you know how to do??

    Great video but could you pls make a tutorial on how I can create a book notes database that allows me to scan all of the notes from all the books I've read, with cross link network threads btw them like the zettelkasten method. Your video on zettelkasten was too advanced for me but a watered down beginner version showing how to make links wld be awesome. Pls pls make this video ASAP, I wld like to transpose my notes from years of reading on to Notion like Nate Ellison, but he uses roam research and can't afford that. Thnx in advance u are fab btw.
