Hey Greg! I am loving your videos. This has really encouraged me to start using Heptabase a lot more and use some of the techniques you have talked about. I have a question for you. Were you able to somehow get the Bible into Heptabase in any kind of a way that you could reference or backlink to specific verses (or at least books or chapters) to the Bible? And if so, how? I would love to be able to do that. Thank you!

[@Greg_Wheeler]

That’s awesome to hear! As far getting the Bible into Heptabase, I’m creating cards for the verses I’m studying and copying/pasting from my Bible resource. That way the insights I gather can be linked back to the card with those verses. There isn’t a way (as of now) you can import the whole Bible into Heptabase.

@@Greg_Wheeler Thank you for your reply! That's too bad but I think the way you are doing it is good too. I will probably start doing that too. Thanks!

I love what you are doing in this series on Heptabase. I'm here for the deep and wide thinking!! I'm totally a Craft guy but love the edgeless whiteboard. If only we could be able to bring more organization to the card system on Heptabase.

[@Greg_Wheeler]

Thanks man! Cards can be organized in whiteboards (I see these as visual folders), sections and with tags too. What type of organization would be beneficial for you?

[@craigthebugguy7055]

@@Greg_Wheeler My dream app would be a combination of Craft with Heptabase edgeless whiteboards. To be able to drag either a whole card or just elements of your card onto the whiteboard while still maintaining the Craft-like boards and templates

They didn't 'leave'... they were culled! Stupidly upsetting the balance. Always enjoy your content and ideas.

[@Greg_Wheeler]

What?! I don’t remember seeing that in the book. Thanks for the clarification!

How do you make the dotted lines between cards?

[@Greg_Wheeler]

@@anickglobensky-bromow9820 if you click on the line some actions will pop up. Click the 3 lines icon (varying thickness) and you should see the dotted lines icon.
