[@BryanJenks]

So nice of you! thank you! :))

[@michaeln1712]

Obsidian should have this video embedded in to their HOMEPAGE as a prerequisite. Amazing Video hands-down!

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you think so :)

[@Number01]

Thank you! Keep releasing these. :) This is the best channel on Obsidian I've found so far.

[@BryanJenks]

Wow, thank you!

[@BlindRambler]

Yeah I can 2nd that

[@Mousey316]

Great job on this, Bryan. Love your passion and attention to detail. You laid out the basic tools well. Thanks for the time and effort you put into this.

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you found it useful!

[@pvca]

One of the bests videos about obsidian for beginners on youtube.

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you think so :)

[@zalibecquerel3463]

Oh Yeah! Looking forward to watching this. Finally I might start doing something in markdown other than bullet points and H1, H2, ... H5.

[@BryanJenks]

The world of markdown is your Oyster :)

[@shangabeads]

@@BryanJenks 🤣😂 I'm gonna be rollin' in pearls because I'm so inspired! Well... hopefully. Someday...

[@whoibrar]

I knew markdown was powerful, but this video shows how and why it is!

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@skyeabwhite]

Bryan, if anyone is gonna create a 'truly' comprehensive course on Obsidian - you're the (tall) guy 😉 Seriously though, great content man.

[@BryanJenks]

So nice of you! thank you! :))

[@winddealer1]

🐄 Fantastic content coverage, great audio and examples. Thank you for making your work available to so many. Gratefully.

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you like them! 🐄

[@CandyCaneChris]

Thank you for going through so much detail. Going to try replacing Emacs with Obsidian for my notes tomorrow.

[@BryanJenks]

Im glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@micberezin]

Hello. Very helpful video to understand the details of Obsidian workflow) But I have 1 question: How did you replace the with the text in one click? At 1:05:37 . I thought that you have HTML placeholder attribute in or - and it's really working way) I already tried it. But it's awful)

[@BryanJenks]

Advanced tables plug-in I believe, then just tab then shift tab to select the content of the cel to overwrite

[@MelanieWymer]

Wow - really enjoyed that - learned so much! Thank you. My brain is now fried!

[@BryanJenks]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@rayusaki88]

Thanks Bryan. Very useful vid.

[@BryanJenks]

Glad it was helpful!

[@learningbird9940]

Thanks a lot, Bryan, for this tutorial.

[@BryanJenks]

My pleasure!

[@abdoali5672]

TYSM for your exceptional work, may I ask you a question? How can I make checkboxes? those are not tasklist,

[@BryanJenks]

the task list items in markdown are the check boxes `- [ ] item` if you used an HTML input tag for a check box then the tag wont remember the state and it wont really work for what you're going for

[@yoonhyuncho2757]

Thank you for sharing useful tips! 🐄

[@BryanJenks]

my pleasure :) 🐄

[@eduardomenotisilva3886]

Great video, Bryan! One question: how do you add characters before and after some selected text? This would be quite useful for me

[@BryanJenks]

Come characters get added to both sides automatically like the brackets [[ ]] other things you can do it with a templater template

[@sibaroochi]

you showed how to resize an image from an external link. How do you resize an image that is stored locally in your vault?

[@BryanJenks]

there should be information in the obsidian help vault on how to do this, i dont know off the top of my head and i honestly never do it 🤷🏻‍♂️️

[@CodeWithTomi]

[@BryanJenks]

[@eddu4361]

Thanks man!

[@BryanJenks]

my pleasure! :)

[@z0rr0o4]

I like your channel a looooot

[@BryanJenks]

♥️

[@timbushell8640]

Inline footnotes... ... so actually end-notes of that file/document... if so is there an actual "foot and end" - note rendering, for those who might get 'dead tree' printing/publishing? And yes - "stuff" to be used, to get "stuff inside of STUFF", excellent. And making "stuff inside of stuff" my quote of the week. : ))))) And one for the re-watch list - as I am sure, I will just need it - and I will have missed something too. And yes, shame about the course - but great reuse of content - and thanks for making it free, etc.

[@BryanJenks]

thank you, and welcome! :)

[@aanilkumarpothula3073]

It was quite impressive Bryan , but can we convert Markdown to PDF using API's . Great content though' .

[@BryanJenks]

most conversion ive done is with pandoc

[@gloriousnoobs5456]
