👋 Hey all! This is the start of a complete beginner's course to Notion that I'm creating. I've decided to release the lessons as I create them so I can take your feedback and questions into account for future lessons. You can find the course home page with links to all the resources and templates here: thomasjfrank.com/fundamentals/ 😎 Enjoy, and let me know what questions you have!

Thanks for the video Thomas. To all the viewers, in this video you will learn about, 1."How to create a new page", 2."Comments", 3."Backlinks" 4. Page view-"Full Width & Normal View" 5. Edit font style. 6. Customize -"Change the view of Comments, Backlinks and Top-level discussions" Thank you

Pluses - Starting from the beginning but not too slow paced. Even if you are already an avid Notion user you might find a tidbit. But Thomas does not make assumptions about his learners, he explains the concepts and that usage in a straightforward way. He also provides a context for when you might use these features. Level Up: Although this is a top-tier youtube video, the learning could be extended with an invitation to apply the learning to create a notin page independantly.

Things I noticed... I am not trying to pick on you... I know you want the feedback to make your course. Thanks for making this free! These comments are for Lesson 1. There doesn't seem to be a duplicate button for Page 3. I was able to duplicate the other pages. I could not find the Database with the top hat so I made my own. It took me while to find the templates so I could duplicate them. Also the templates and the video are not named the same. It might be good to let people know that there are resources in the written version that are not in the video

Hi, Thomas! What is the difference between page created from typing "+" and from typing "/page" ? Can't understand this. Seems similar, but looks different

@ThomasFrankExplains 3 жыл бұрын

They're very, very similar. In most cases, you'll get the same end result. Typing "/page" creates a Page block and takes you to it. Once there, you'll set the title for the page. By contrast, typing "+Book Notes" and then choosing the first option will create the same Page block, but the title will be already set by what you typed - "Book Notes". Essentially, the + command is a shortcut for creating new pages - or, to be technical, sub-pages, since you're creating the page within the current page. The + command is also flexible; you can choose to create the sub-page elsewhere (instead of on the current page), create a sub-page from an existing template, or even use it to link to existing pages (which you can also use @ and [[ for). We'll be going over all of this in Lesson 4!

@igorbeaver4692 3 жыл бұрын

@@ThomasFrankExplains Great, thanks for the detailed answer! It's a bit tricky to convert one to the other. I have a page with both and I don't know how to make my links look even. Also, both of them are useful in certain situations, so I can't refuse one of them. Hopefully, Lesson 4 will help me fix my workflow. )

@ThomasFrankExplains 3 жыл бұрын

@@igorbeaver4692 this actually pushed me to discover something new - thanks! There is in fact a difference I wasn't aware of until now. When you use the "+" command to create a sub-page, you can actually create that page inline - meaning it can be placed in the middle of a line of text within another block. It's like the difference between Mentions (inline) and Links (blocks on their own line), which deal with existing pages. So if you want to have a sub-page within the current page - but have it linked inline - you'd use the + command. This could be very useful for creating a wiki-style setup, with links right inside text blocks. One key difference from Mentions and Links - in this situation, using either the + command or the Page block will result in the new page being visible in the sidebar navigation. This makes sense, since the current page is where this new sub-page lives. On the the other hand, Mentions don't create links in the sidebar - but Link blocks do.

Yes, but there will be some limitations. The primary one is that the mobile apps can’t create multi-column layouts right now, so when you get to that lesson you’d need to have access to a computer to make use of it. Most everything else is doable, though you’ll have some slight UI differences compared to the desktop apps!
