@@selenophilexhanan8980 The link is in the description
This tutorial was incredibly helpful! I've been struggling to create templates in Notion for my personal and academic work, but your step-by-step instructions made it easy to follow. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us, I really appreciate it. Keep up the great work!
Thanks bro glad to hear! Good luck with your studies :)
Great to see that you are back creating content! Love to see more, keep up the good work!
Thanks mate, appreciate it!
Great content!
I've already moved my uni notes, writings, finances and sports progress data to Notion.
Now it's time to simply make it look prettier and more accessible! Thank you for the tutorial!
Amazing! You're welcome :)
do you make seperate spaces for each notebook?
Bro, whenever I click on a video only to be surprised by a safa accent i cant help but smile...
😂😂Gotta represent
Man this is real high value content, thanks a lot :)
Thank you, glad you found it useful :)
This callout tip is really dope!! Now I will just organize my pages like that! Thanks from brazil
Yea it's already a habit for me to instantly create a callout box when I create a new database, glad you like it as well 🙌🏼
Great video man👍. I've been using notion for almost a year now and I had no idea that it could look like that.
Glad I could help out :)
This is a really impresive way to use Notion. I'll follow to get more tips.
Glad you found it useful 🙌🏼
My biggest take from the video was how to change the size of a column in a multi column layout
Thanks for the video !
congrats on your first 100k views video! cheers! 🎉
Hehe thanks :)
thank you mate, helped me increase my productivity
Glad I could help :)
Great template! Helped me get organized :)

Thanks bro, appreciate it!
Love the Content! Keep up the grind!
Thanks! Will do :)
@@chrisnotion Of Course!
Hey Chris...this is great content sir! Thanks~!
Thanks! Glad I can help :)
Gostei muito do seu conteúdo, meu Notion já era organizada, mas agora com essas funções ele vai ficar minimalista é bem mais interrativo
These are very useful tools!!! It really, really helped me. Thank you so much
You're welcome!
Thanks really helpful:D
Glad to hear that! :)
Hi Chris, thanks for the content. It's amazing! QQ: when I used Covercons, how do I remove the background of the icon?
Just match the color with the white/dark color of Notion and it should look transparent
what a conetent man....too good
Thanks bro!
Thanks you guys.
You're welcome!
Thanks you are a livesaver!
You're welcome!
THANK YOU!
You're welcome!
Incrível muito obrigado pelas dicas.
De nada!
zika
Thanks !!!!
You're welcome!
thank you thank you
You're welcome!
great video! do you know how to make the buttons interactive
Hello Chris, thank you for the video, it's realy cool. I have one question, how can I get the companies icons like you in the vide?
Thanks! It looks like they removed it, don't know why
dankie broer!
Jys welkom bra!
Hi Chris, How can you make the Chart from the calender as you did in the template?
Is it copyright free to use your selected pinterest gifs for the notion cover page?
Can you please share the Font you have used in this notion template?
Hello, thank you for this very explanatory video, but I had a question. I don't understand how I can apply the color only to the framed block and not to all the other blocks inside when I take it and insert it inside the framed block
Thank you for your answer : )
The callout block needs to be set to default color (not the text color you want) and then to change only the callout block text color and not everything inside it as well, just highlight the text and then change the text color (not the callout block text color). Do as I do in the tutorial
muito obrigado, brasil agradece pelo conteudo, thanksssss
You're welcome :)
Conseguiu pegar os icones das midias sociais no Indify!???
@@PreviattiSound tem que criar uma conta
I'm currently trying to figure out if I'm gonna use notion or obsidian, what are your opinions on obsidian?
Obsidian is cool but is more for knowledge management whereas Notion is more for life-management. So if you are learning any new information you can use the Zettelkasten method in Obsidian. The main idea is that instead of normally where you'd create a folder and add the relevant information into, the Zettelkasten suggests you input the information and use specific tags and over time the nodes or "folders" will emerge out of all your information. However if you wanna manage pretty much anything else like projects, tasks, finances, habits, fitness, meals, etc. then Notion is the way to go.
What a great video! can you help me with the cover? When i put the link it doesn't appear for no reason. it just be blank with nothin
Make sure you're using a normal URL or just download the image and upload it
Thanks for the video and i have a question. I am using notion on ipad and i can’t move things around like you did like i cant put them next to each other. Is it me or moving things are not allowed in iPad 🥲
You can, you just need to press and hold on an item and it will pop out so you can move it around, works the same on mobile 🙌🏼
Loved the template. QQ: Indify now doesn't show social media emojis what to do??😥
Great to hear! Yea I have no idea why they removed it but hopefully Notion adds an external linking option to the Notion buttons soon 🙌🏼
How to add a gif from Pinterest? Whenever I try to embed the respective link in notion, all I get is a preview for the whole Pinterest page where the gif is (including everything that is not the gif itself but also the title and description underneath etc)
Hey noa, usually you have to grab the direct link from the original pin they embed that one! Hope that helps! Also if you'd like a super intuitive Notion template feel free to let us know! We got our 24 page planner out now!
The easiest way would be to just download the gif and upload it to Notion
@@chrisnotion for some reason that didn't work before, but I just tried again and it suddenly worked! Thanks:)
hey Chris, I followed along and made a cool yellow theme, now how do I save it so I can make a green, a blue or purple one and change between them whenever I want ?
Hi no you'd need to change the colors of everything each time. I'd recommend to maybe just color code certain areas of your life. For example work related databases are blue, personal is green, etc.
@@chrisnotion oh really. How did you achieve it in yours you have 5 themes
How take NOTES tracker?
Where can I find that database, from the beginning I did not have it. Like already made to do list which is categorized: Today, due soon etc.
You can find them all in this video: th-cam.com/video/-JKiVnf_Xic/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Ov_8W5RRYiQ3GnBX
nice
Thanks
can any one send the link of clock
plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
This may sound silly but what's "morning" and "evening"? It looks like a database table view but cant' seem to mimic it
It's a list view database with 7 checkboxes, one for each day, grouped according to another database with 2 database entries, morning and evening. You can checkout my minimalist habit tracker video here: th-cam.com/video/b4lvEdf0Ywo/w-d-xo.html
The Louis Oosthuizen of Notion
How did u made the Notes database to only show "add note" ?
It was just a template button which is now replaced with the new Notion buttons. You can find a video about it here: th-cam.com/video/qZObB-5SAZ8/w-d-xo.html
Would you like me to help you? If so, lmk if you have IG
Hi, I don't even know exactly what to ask but how did you manage to create a calendar with many templates without the "v x items hidden" when you create a new page? I don't know if what I said made sense lol
Haha yea not entirely sure what you're asking but I think you're referring to the different views on the calendar to different databases. Inside a linked view database you can click inside the database menu and then change the source to a different database. So you can have a view for tasks, a view for habits, a view for finances, etc all on the same database, just as different views
@chrisnotion yes, it's the multiple databases linked to the calendar! I'm not sure I understood the explanation because I'm more of a visual learner but I'll try to figure out how it's done. I swear the not knowing how to replicate it made me SO stressed lol thanks for the answer!
muito bom
where do you get the databases
I have a video sharing my 9 free Notion templates which you can find here: th-cam.com/video/-JKiVnf_Xic/w-d-xo.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
Any idea if i can sell the templates if i were to use the widgets and GIFS?
Well you can create your own template from scratch and sell your own but of course you can't sell mine cuz that would be copyright infringement and could get you in a lot of trouble
@@chrisnotion Oh sorry what i meant was using elements from Indify and Giphy to input to my own created template in general not sell other people's templates haha
@@TheKeyBoardWarriorOfficial Yes you can 🙌🏼
02:46 how did you remove name of database? when i remove types of database appear.
Just replace the name with a space from the spacebar
Do you still need help?
@@SamuelTura2 no thx
woow
How do you change the board views colors?
Go into the layout tab in the database menu and toggle on the "color columns" option
@@chrisnotion Sorry I meant how do you change the actual color of the columns?
what is you're cursor name .
Did they remove Companies Logos from Indify Website?
I think so yea, no idea why
@@chrisnotion any other way to get them into the buttons?
@@poisonlocket8270 Haven't found a way yet, waiting on Notion to add an external linking option to the Notion buttons
👍
Why is the icon and the text more in the middle at my file than yours? yours completely on the left
Go into your page menu in the top right and click on full-width (you can also make your text smaller and change the font)
@@chrisnotion ty
@@kaiser1771 Hey Kaiser I need help with mine, do you have an instagram?
where do i access the original template that you started out with?
It's my Life OS dashboard just stripped down to the most basic look. Can't find it anywhere but the Life OS is in the description 🙌🏼
I have one similar to the original, do you still need help?
@@SamuelTura2 yh i would rlly want the original plz. Thanks
@@domlapss You’re IG?
@@domlapss What’s you’re Instagram?
How to change database title into space ?? It doesn't work
Click spacebar
Howsit Larnie, you’re from South Africa?
Awe howzit 😂
@@chrisnotion send me your email address bru
contact@chrisnotion.com
🥺
Haaaawzit okes always lekker running into saffas online sjoe may bru jassis hey
how do i get all my elements to align on the far left by default ?
Make sure your page is full-width through the page menu in the top right and use empty blocks or type /2columns to add 2 columns and then just drop what you want on the left and right. And to resize them just drag the grey bar in the middle.
@@chrisnotion THANK YOU
Almost all the pixel art I find is way, way too big to use as a Notion cover. Is it even possible to resize a gif?
I've realized by watching more of the video that your solution to this problem is to ignore it. I guess it doesn't actually have to look good; as long as it's pixels and it's animated it's ~~aesthetic~~ 🙄
A lot of the pixel art you find on Pinterest isn't even in GIF form. I keep finding MP4s.
I'm so lost here man. Hide the databases? What databases? I just started using Notion and I just don't want it to look bad. I don't have databases. Am I supposed to? Do I need them? How do I even add them? This isn't advice on making Notion look nice, it's advice on how to make YOUR SPECIFIC NOTION look nice. I don't get it. I've wated like an hour on this video and only made it 2 and a half minutes in and so far all I've learned is that you can embed stuff like clocks and hyperlinks from other websites. Don't you guys already have clocks and browser favorites? What are we doing?
I think this is just not the video for me because I don't even understand how you're doing stuff like putting boxes next to each other. That doesn't work for me.
Also you go too fast.
embeding doesn't work in my notion(((((((
It looks like a couple of people have this problem, might be something with Notion but otherwise maybe try using Notion's embed block.
@@chrisnotion Just tried it, everything works perfectly. Thanks for your tutorials and templates!)
Notion is not available for Linux Ubuntu :(((
Use the browser version
I think we can install it via snap
Name that cursor?
I'm using a combination of the Polar, Comix, and Taoism cursor packs found on Devianart. The Polar Cursor pack is probably the one you're looking for
@@chrisnotion thx and nice video
This is great but in the future could you perhaps slow down a tad, speaking and demonstrating the steps. 😊 Dankie
Sal probeer :)
BRO ARE YOU SOUTH AFRICAN?!!
Indeed 😂
Afrikaans accent
💯
explain a bit slow mannn...!
I'm slowing down the pacing of my content as time goes on but you can also just slow down the speed inside of TH-cam
Great videos! but i recommend you to pay for a 'speech improving' service so your videos will be more enjoyable, because your accent will improve.
My accent makes me unique, I don't want to sound like everyone else 🙌🏼
no need to be negative towards someone providing so much free info
Is this a 2x speed video by default or what
