Notion is a beast! I started my Notion journey about three weeks ago. I CANNOT believe how many features it has. It's a lot of learning, but as I become more comfortable with it, I can absolutely see the value in it, AND why people love it so much!!!! I've been learning so much from your channel. Thank you!
I found a nice 'New' feature within notion for windows desktop. Not yet described in the shortcut list. When pressing Ctrl + T, it opens a New Tab in notion (Just like a browser). Didn't knew it could do so. Maybe this is usefull for others as well.
Very helpful, much appreciated, definitely going to check out your other videos. How did you get the large font and icons for the preview on the gallery view?
love your easy to understand Notion tutorials -- I am relatively new to Notion and was wondering if there is a way to connect two databases to one calendar -- such as connecting a contact database showing birthdays to my calendar with my daily tasks -- so each day as I look at my calendar I can see both --??
How do you have all the content under "Quick Capture" or "Task Manager" in a seperate spot with that gray background. Are those databases in themselves or what type of element lets you place objects on top with a background and square behind everything?
Thank you so much for teaching me how to use Notion. The owner of the company I work for just said hey, move all these value engines and playbooks over here. And Ive never used it! Youve helped me to successfully do this on my own. I appreciate it so much!
Very helpful video. I'm sure you'll be Notion certified very soon. I couldn't get through the "utilize subpage in Notion CRM".. Pls suggest if you can help with the template.

I find most tips & tricks Notion videos tend to be packed with quite a lot of not so useful features but yours is amazing! Thanks for all that crazy work 🙏
Thanks a lot for all your videos. I can’t find the one you kindly mentioned members vs guest. It seems Notion automatically charge my account as soon as someone joined my space?
Your videos are super helpfull. I have one question to the one way linked databases. Can i create a one way linked database to a template? I want to create a to do list on my conference homepage with all to do's from every conference, but in each protocol page i only want to see the to do's from that protocol (the protocol structure is a template). I achieved to linked them, but now i see every to do on every page. I googled, but i cant find a solution, because its a template... hope you can help
I have multiple tutorials that might help… I made 1 video about sub items and dependencies, I also made a recent video about databases (full guide) that might help.
Thanks for your videos! If others are like me, please make your videos max 10 mins so they're easier to follow and apply. It'll be good for you as well. Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, etc.
I’m trying to make a template for a niche category. It has come together, but now the question is how to market something that has not priorly existed ❤
Very Nice tutorial!! Trying to create a quick capture database containing tasks, whenever I click the new button, it will add a task to my database, but it doesn't open the page for that task to let me fill out the details. How do you get the new button to open the page for the task?
Check out the link in my description. That is Notions official page where they talk about study strategies and you can apply there. I recommend learning about Notion sharing settings, database permissions, relations and rollups, shortcuts, and understand how teams work in Notion. If you don’t pass with 70% plus you’ll get a chance to retake after 30 days. Good luck!!
@@ProductiveDude Thanks! Another Quick Question, how did you add multiple photos to scroll through. I cant seem to figure it out. It wont let me upload multiple photos at once.
@@brandi3447 Just add them separately within the page. '/image' should pull up the image option, upload one image, then do '/image' again below that further down the page. Repeat these steps as many time as you want, then click on one of the photos and you'll be able to scroll through. :)
Hi! Do you know how to connect Google Calendar to Notion with Make? it's supposed to be done. In fact, in Notion appears, but i don't know how to do it.
I need help, I've been using custom colors and fonts for a year on PC and Android phone, but a week ago they don't show on the phone, it just shows the data. Yes I've restarted the phone.
the problem with a recurring task is it can only be seen in one calendar i have other todos that isnot recurring but need a calendar for it so I created a date property for that but on my timeline and calendar view i can't see my recurring tas since the recurring tas can only work to created date property
@@ProductiveDude Ah. I'm on a Lenovo with Chrome. Check the website, you'll see the notice. Hopefully they'll get it fixed because it does look like they've got some nice options.
Based on my personal experience, Notion seems like a dangerous tool that is blinded by money. If you make a mistake in inviting members, you will be automatically charged for an additional year, and there seems to be no way to prevent it. There are many good tools out there, so if you choose to use Notion, use it for personal use only and be extremely cautious with collaboration. I recommended it for students' homework submissions, and ended up being automatically charged over $5,000. When I raised the issue, instead of a refund, I was given useless credits worth $5,000, and they said they couldn't provide a refund after 3 days. Hundreds of dollars can disappear in an instant. Notion is an extremely risky and insane company. Unless your company is paying for it, I highly recommend avoiding it, and if you investigate, you'll see that it incurs tremendous costs. $5,000 is unusable even for a personal plus account and I think the company is just terrible. You'd be better off using MS Loop or other tools. Never use Notion for anything other than a personal free account. And even the personal free account is garbage. You have to pay a lot of money just to do anything, and it's all automatic. It's a tool from a company that's really suspect at its core

Why do you use sync? It works without it also fine.
Filter > Is empty doesn't work (I guess Notion broke it).
Filter > Is (some date) works.

Based on my personal experience, Notion seems like a dangerous tool that is blinded by money. If you make a mistake in inviting members, you will be automatically charged for an additional year, and there seems to be no way to prevent it. There are many good tools out there, so if you choose to use Notion, use it for personal use only and be extremely cautious with collaboration. I recommended it for students' homework submissions, and ended up being automatically charged over $5,000. When I raised the issue, instead of a refund, I was given useless credits worth $5,000, and they said they couldn't provide a refund after 3 days. Hundreds of dollars can disappear in an instant. Notion is an extremely risky and insane company. Unless your company is paying for it, I highly recommend avoiding it, and if you investigate, you'll see that it incurs tremendous costs. $5,000 is unusable even for a personal plus account and I think the company is just terrible. You'd be better off using MS Loop or other tools.
Never use Notion for anything other than a personal free account. And even the personal free account is garbage. You have to pay a lot of money just to do anything, and it's all automatic.
It's a tool from a company that's really suspect at its core
