Hey, unfortunately, I faced an issue with copyright related to the music. This is the transcript: ------------------------ MINIMAL THEME SETTINGS Now, the Obsidian theme I use is Minimal, and Minimal Theme Settings plugin is its best friend. It helps me to customize my Vault appearance by changing colors, fonts, layout and more. NATURAL LANGUAGE DATES The next plugin is Natural Language Dates. It allows me to insert timestamps and links to my daily notes with the flexibility of natural language. For example, to write the today’s date I can simply write `@today`. OBSIDIAN CHARTS Then I have Obsidian Charts. As the name suggests, this plugin let me create interactive Charts by using DataviewJS queries. For example, I use it to track my weight, and it looks like this. OBSIDIAN COLUMNS The next plugin is not a plugin I use so often, but sometimes I need to modify the layout of my note in different columns and I really like how Obsidian Columns works. I can build different columns by using a code block. For example, if I want to write 3 callouts in 3 different columns the syntax looks like this. ------------------------

I didn't know the functionality of custom frames. I tried harder to replicate Google Calendar and Chat GPT without good results, but this solution is easier and completely works for me. Thanks.

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Hi! Glad it helped you!

[@mjylove2]

thank you for the video. i am downloading local backup plugin, and reveal active file button plugin!

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Two very simple and amazing plugins!

[@thegoldentelevision]

Another great video Marco, have you compared the difference between Quick Switcher and Omnisearch?

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Hi Gino! I’m actually using Omnisearch now. Maybe I should make a video about this topic 🤔

[@glvite]

Ciao Marco, thanks for the advice, very interesting. I tried using the columns plugin (to replace the CSS: MCL-Multicolumn that I am using), but I noticed that it fails to display the dataview queries! Do you know anything about this?

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Hey, thank you! When you use Obsidian Columns with the codeblock syntax, the parent codeblocks must have more backticks (`) then their children codeblocks. In your case, since you want to write a dataview query (that requires 3 backticks), you need to write the "col-md" using 4 backticks, and the parent codeblock (the "col" codeblock) should have 5 backticks. The structure should be something like this: `````col ````col-md ```dataview ``` ```` ````col-md ```dataview ``` ```` `````

😪@@Marco_Mindstone, now working well. This is perfect! I Havefor you 2 extra questions: 1) Is there an Italian group of Obsidian users? 2) Meta-bind, I read 2 of your articles about the plugin and I have a problem: when I use code like: `VIEW[{a}*{b}][math:c]` the value that is passed to the metadata "c " is always a string and not a numeric data, how do I set "c" to a numeric value? In the meantime, thank you for your support, and above all congratulations on the courses and articles you keep, always interesting and detailed. All I have to do is wish you my best wishes for a HAPPY 2024.

[@Marco_Mindstone]

@@glvite Glad it works well! About your questions: 1) I don't think there is an Italian group of Obsidian users, but you can find a dedicated "Italian text-channel" in the official Obsidian Discord server. 2) It's been a while since the last time I used Meta Bind, but I downloaded it again to test what you asked me and, first of all, I have to say "thank you!" because I didn't know Meta Bind released a "Button" feature! I was looking for a "Buttons Plugin" alternative for a client! With that being said, I don't think you can change the type of the value (at least for now) since, as the name suggests, it's just a "VIEW" field; it simply display your metadata, but it's not supposed to give you a result that you can work with. Even if you do something like this: `INPUT[number:a]` `INPUT[number:b]` `VIEW[{a}*{b}][math:c]` "c" will continue to be a string. Thank you very much and I wish you an happy new year!

[@glvite]

Sin! I wanted to pass the result to metadata "C" which happens, but in numerical format, since it is a calculation! I solved it this way: I set the "C" metadata to a string. when I use it (for example in dataview) I change it to number with the number() function and everything seems to work. Many thanks and have a great day.

[@Marco_Mindstone]

@@glvite Yes, that's the best solution :)

[@RobertoCinetto]

Hey Marco! Thank you for your video. Question: how do I get the context menu (right click menu) like yours? Thanks!

[@RobertoCinetto]

I solved! I had the "Native Menus" option enabled

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Perfect! Thank you Roberto!

[@ivanmoniz5124]

Can you do a video on the ledger plugin?

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Added to the list!

emacs org mode for zoomers?

[@Marco_Mindstone]

Well, at the end Obsidian is a “modern” markdown text editor, but with all the plugins you can choose from, it can be used for so many things!
