Inbox? Any way to do?

I’m wondering if there’s a simple way to have an Inbox that I can enter random tasks for later positioning in my outline. Of course I can create “Inbox” at the top – which I have done – but I’d like to NOT have to open the Inbox and interrupt where I’m at in a project in order to quickly add a new task. Any ideas?

Are you looking for a desktop “Add item” app?

I think he wants a “create in” functionality, but he could create the node and then ‘mm’ to inbox

I see two options here:

  1. Using webclipper, which even has an own keyboard shortcut
  2. Using a bookmark to the page which previously worked in the old webclipper version: Enter and master your projects . It is a bit ugly but still works :slight_smile:

Maybe this would help?

I’m not sure I understand your question - but what I do is to send any random thoughts to my main todo list. Then when I open the list, I use the “move” command (mm) to send the items where they need. to be. The "move command is very elegant - it shows all items across all your list that match your search query, and then send your random item to that spot. For major project titles, where I am likely to send many items, I use a unique name so it will show up quickly in the “move”'s search results; just putting a period before the project title will do the trick.
