Hi Matt - great video! I was able to update the formula, however, I believe they are using new language as it will not actually show any of the progress as I check boxes in the habit tracker... do you have any suggestions or perhaps newer formula? Thanks!

[@jadewillis2010]

Replace the habits in this formula. No need for quotation marks. When you copy and paste formula out of notion it will add in extra quotation marks,brackets and prop variable. Your habits should appear in the formula builder anyway when you edit the formula property. floor(100*(toNumber(habit1)+toNumber(habit2)+toNumber(habit3)+toNumber(habit4)+toNumber(habit))/5)/100

The step-by-step explanation was super easy to follow and I'm excited to start using it! I do have one question though. In my habit tracking, I have certain activities such as going to the gym, which I don't do daily, so having a checkbox for every single day seems a bit unnecessary. I was wondering if there's a way to modify the template to have checkboxes only on specific days for certain habits. Any guidance on how to customize this aspect would be greatly appreciated.

This is an awesome template, thank you! I do have a question. I switched the habits as a page (because I want to track per habit) and the properties as the weekdays. Say I want to make my habit of working out only like 4 days out of the week, so how would I change either the formula or the database, in general, to get the progress ring/bar to show at 100% for that workout habit when I check 4 days off? Some of my habits I want to do daily and some only a few days out of the week, and I would like the progress ring to reflect that. Is that possible to do? Thanks again. :)

If you want the template to be similar then make to databases for habits that you daily and for 4 days a week. Or look for the seneca habit tracker if you want every think in one template.

Thanks so much for the tutorial - very helpful and I'm soooo close to getting it down. You mentioned switching to the "is between" filter in the comments - which then prompts me for a specific date range - is this the only way to do it is to manually change that date range each week. And when your template says automations are disabled does that include the "repeat weekly" feature of this template? I'm in the US but the days of the week don't populate at the beginning of the week no matter how many times I've checked it matched your vid. Thanks so much for the video! I love this layout.

If you think you've repeated some of the process in the dashboard you can always delete the one you have and redownload it here: mrbio.gumroad.com/l/notion-weekly-habit-tracker The two main things that will need to be edited are the page templates for the database, followed by the formula.

[@danielaarriaga9206]

Thank you so much for your video. Helped me so much. One question, when I try to open a calendar view, because of the way the database is set (with the days as rows), it takes every day as an item, instead of giving me a list or the columns (habits). Is there a way to change this on the calendar view? Basically inverting rows and collumns? Thank you so much!

[@bialemons]

My habit tracket is different from yours. My days of the week are in the columns, while the habits are in each line of the table. I like it better that way so I can add lots of habits and see all of them at the same time. However, even following your tutorial, I couldn't automate it weekly and keep track of the past weeks. I even downloaded your template and couldn't figure it out.

[@genovelasco6669]

Hi! I did the same thing, Few things, some of my habits have different goals, i.e., vacuum twice a week, or study 5x a week, so my automation would be less than 100% for the week, despite hitting my goal. Here is what I did to fix that. First, add a number property called "Target", where I laid out how many times I want to do something. 5 if I want to study 5 times, 2 if I want to deep clean twice a week, etc. Hide the property for visual sake. Then, here is my code: round(100 * (toNumber(prop("M")) + toNumber(prop("T")) + toNumber(prop("W")) + toNumber(prop("Th")) + toNumber(prop("F")) + toNumber(prop("Sat")) + toNumber(prop("Sun"))) / prop("Target")) / 100 Should work!
