Question

Hi all, notion newbie here.

I want to have a simplified second-brain database. so my whole notebook contains three database

[information database] linked to [tags database](not tag column), and a [projects database]

My workflow is:
a piece of information is recorded on a page in [information database]
I assign tags from [tags database] to this page
when a project comes up. I create a project page in [projects database]
I insert an inline database of [information database] into the project page, filter by relevant tags
obtain a list of information that is relevant to my project.
I then go through the filtered pages one by one and record all important keynotes.

I would like a way to generate a checkbox column next to these filtered info pages. and check them off as "complete" as I review each page.

I am thinking to make [information database] generate a new checkmark column somehow whenever I inline the database to a new project, and only this new chcekmark column will be visible when others stay hidden.

Can I do this? if not what is your suggestion? appreciate your time and pointers

Answer 1

You are correct and where the information database is displayed you need to add a filter where checkbox is not checked, that is it.

It will show only unchecked items and you can also add another view to only see the checked ones.
