Calendar / Daily Notes View

The idea is to have a page which contains an outline with day nodes, similar to due view, but organized by years/months/days.

Such nodes would contain:

  • list of items from other lists created or modified this day (auto-generated)
  • list of items with current due date for this day (auto-generated)
  • notes which are entered manually for this day, “Day notes”, i.e. not belonging to other lists

One of the previous discussions:

The current solution for the task is to have a simple list where dates are entered manually with a shortcut.

What do you think?

Fabulous idea for bettering note organisation and search.

I’ve been using Day Notes so this would absolutely be helpful.

It would be more useful if you supported “scheduled date” (which could be interpreted as show on date) in addition to “due date”

Right, but we don’t have the start dates yet. At the same time, this approach to handle start dates would still work with the Daily notes view.

Being able to focus on dates and have nodes (that are referring to that date) automatically show up will be a great addition and - in my case - replace another app that does exactly that. Would be great to have Checkvist as my main note taking app!

@GercoB Thanks for the comment :slight_smile: May I ask which app do you use for the task at the moment?

Hi @maxkir , I use NotePlan as a note-taking app and mainly create my notes in outline format. Since Noteplan is built around daily notes, you can add a date to a specific line or bullet. As a result, when you create a new daily note on that date, the relevant line is shown as a reference at the top of that daily note.

However, Checkvist is my favorite because of its keyboard shortcut approach, so implementing this feature will be great.
