    Thanks! I've been trying to figure out how to add my template to my button for over 20 minutes. You saved me a lot of time!
    Edit: You're explain nation was also perfect. Not too long but easy to follow.

    Hey, thanks for sharing this video! I've have been using buttons for a while now and it's helping to save a lot of time. I have a question though, is there a way to create an URL where I can save it to my bookmarks bar in order to activate this button directly from any other website?
    If i'm creating a quick note on something, I'd rather click on a bookmark that opens my template rather than opening the notion page where that button is located and only then perform the command..

      I'm glad you found my video helpful! I totally get what you're saying, and I think that's a super cool idea!! However, I'm not aware that Notion functions can run like that anywhere other than inside the page. Depending on what you're trying to do, maybe something like Zapier could do it for you?

    Hi! What are the settings/filters for the ideal schedule button?

    • @itskatwaugh
      @itskatwaugh  Před 6 měsíci

      Hey! For the button to clear the schedule, there are no filters and it's set to make Sun-Sat blank.
      If you want to repopulate it with a button, I make different steps for each time block using a filter where the "Time" property includes (type in time). Then I set what I want in that time block for each day. It takes a bit to set up, but once it's set up it's good to go!

    How do you make a button do something different if it is clicked multiple times? Like an on/ off button?

    • @itskatwaugh
      @itskatwaugh  Před 16 dny

      Buttons are always going to do the same thing when you click them! If you want to do an on/off type of thing, you’ll want one button to be the “on” button and one to be the “off”.

      @@itskatwaugh thank you. That is what I have, but I noticed in a William Nutt video on time tracking that he is using one button for both start and stop. This means the button is performing different actions when it is clicked twice.

    • @itskatwaugh
      @itskatwaugh  Před 15 dny +1

      @@xavthomas Ahh gotcha. So in that case, I bet what he did was add filters to the groups of actions. So for example - for clocking in, one step is filtered for pages where "In" is empty and "Out" is empty. Then for clocking out another step is filtered for pages where "In" is not empty and "Out" is empty. Does that make sense? You would basically want to make sure the filter is finding the right pages for the step its working on. Other wise it would complete all the actions at once. So that is definitely one work around!! It just requires some additional if logic on filters :)
