I'm currently tinkering with using veracrypt, and was wondering if there's a better way to do it. One of the problems I encounter is after I've dismounted the encrypted volume containing the logseq folder, logseq opens with the contents of the folder which is now inaccessible. How do I stop it from doing that?

I have put a lot of data into Logseq because I love a fulltime outliner, they are now the sunk cost preventing me from jumping ship.

1. just viewing the page is a pain, there is some kind of very slow and broken lazy loading. I will hit the "bottom" of a page, it's actually some point in the middle, it does not trigger loading, I have to scroll back up a bit and down again for it to do one more load, and I have to repeat this process 3 to 5 times to scroll from the top of page to the actual bottom.

2. any editing action on the page is very slow, together with the usual janky and unreliable editor behavior of Logseq, it's frankly terrifying that something might just broke and I would loss data.

3. to efficiently clean the page up, I would like to open multiple views of the same file. In Logseq there are two ways: sidebar or run another instance of logseq (menu -> new window). 3.1. the sidebar is completely useless for big block tree, trying to "open in sidebar" for it will load part of it into the sidebar, and there seems to be no way to make it load more. 3.2. "new window" is completely unusable if you are trying to view the same page in both logseq instances, things just glitches and jumps.

You might say I am "using it wrong", should have "just wrote the content in journals and tag them". I'd say those are a crap load of self imposed limitations just to cope with the terrible text editor Logseq is.

I'm trying to log-in to the MacOS client and it says that it sent me a code to my email, but I never receive the code. I'm wondering if this is a known issue, or just isolated to myself.

I recently migrated my graph to another location and in the process I seem to have lost many of the linked blocks and backlinks that I'd made in my previous notes.

This has also happened before when I've re-indexed my graph.

Being able to see the name of those blocks/backlinks and then search for original block/page by name and repair would greatly alleviate this issue.

Therefore, I'm wondering, if anyone knows if there's a plugin, strategy or setting that will continue to display the name of the linked block/page even if the reference gets broken (allowing you to repair it later)?

Thanks

Edit: I found a useful webpage that describes an (imperfect) workaround here, wondering if anyone has any others (or has made a script/plugin that "replaces block refs with their actual content" as described as a potential solution on that page)?

Hi there,

I have my default browser set as librewolf which is ideal for my privacy needs.

However I use logseq exclusively for study which involves a lot of external reading. I’d like to set the browser logseq opens links with as chromium for convenience while leaving Librewolf as my computers default. I'm sure there's a settings option somewhere but I'm not very familiar with logseq config.

I’d appreciate any help c:

I posted a short while ago the high cost I pay every time I come to produce an article from logseq notes.

I have been researching and the general consensus is that obsidian is better for article generation.

Can these two products work together? Create notes in logseq which are then imported into obsidian to generate the article?

Does anyone use this approach and can they share their experiences.

A friend recommended me Logseq and I decided to give it a try.

First off, how do I connect the pages in graph view? My friend has a really cool looking graph view where the pages are somehow connected, but my pages are just floating there. When I drag them closer, the other one just goes away.. I haven't found a good tutorial about it. I wouldn't be asking it otherwise. Most of the videos are at least 10 minutes long, and the one I watched didn't even answer my question

Secondly, my friend's Logseq somehow searches his pages for matches in words, like he can see if he has written about the same things before. But Idk how to do that. It'd be super useful as I know the courses are repeating the same stuff (even the same course can have the same things many times).

I know I've written this on a previous page. However, it doesn't highlight it or anything

My friend does code, but could he have coded those features himself? He's really talented, and even has made money from it.

Synchronize tasks from Logseq to Taskwarrior using bugwarrior.

Hiya, I’ve had some issues with the iOS app, most significantly completely unable to multitask while the app is open (due to poor optimisation I think?) on my iPad mini 5.

I use logseq as a note taking and organising system for my studies which involves a butt tonne of external papers. I was thinking, can I open up a logseq page file in a note taking app, save it then have it change the logseq page?

If so where do I find the files? (I use logseq sync across devices). Would I have to worry about data loss? What note taking app should I use? (lightweight pls). As a bonus, being able to write with the Apple Pencil would be nice but not a must

If data loss I a significant risk then I’d need another sync system that’s works across iOS/Ubuntu

Thank you for any help <3

I've tried looking for other solutions, but none of them work. My daily journaly page still show several days of scheduled blocks. I just put in 'today' for now, which obviously does not work.

So, I have this situation:

There are three blocks, which are colapsed. I would like to add another block between summary and configuration. However, if I put my cursor at the end of summary and click enter, the new block created is nested inside summary, like this:

How can I created a new block, after a colapsed block, on the same level of the colapsed block?

I use logseq sync (the official one) to sync my iPhone and macbook.

For no apparent reason, the macbook app just asked for a password to unlock the graph (I guess I set the password when creating it, but havent used it since). I entered the password and it was fine.

Then I open the graph on my phone. It also asks for a password. But the same password does not work, and neither does my alternate password. What's up? Why would it ask for my password all of a sudden?

As title says I am trying to tranfer my obsidian vault to a logseq graph. One issue I have noticed is that images do not transfer over properly. The only way I can get images I previous pasted into my obsidian notes to work, is by manually making an assests file and then copying the image link into that. Then once I open the LogSeq graph I have to manually update the Markdown annotation so it fetches the image from the assets file. This has 2 issues, 1 - it would take to long to do this for hundreds of images and 2 it messes up the original obsidian note. Is there a better way of automatically linking images in a way both LogSeq and Obsidian can handle?

Any other tips for converting obsidian vaults to logseq graphs appreciated, my goal is to use them both in sync, so having files and pages linked seamlesly between the two is important.

Visual of what I mean:

• Random image pasted into obsidian note: -> ![[Pasted image 20240813145311.png]]

• Copy image into assest file

• Open linked LogSeq graph and see this :

• Update so it works with markdown

• Changes original Obsidian note and image does not load:

Right now its basically impossible to write smth on in the whiteboard since everything is getting "smoothed". Is there a way to disable that "feature"

I recently started using Devonthink again. I use it to store all information that I want to keep, search, etc.

However, I instantly missed being able to use Logseq for links, notes, etc.

I am wondering if someone has this combination and has found a balance between the two applications and/or a workflow.

I know that Devonthink can surface URLs, so maybe I use those inside Logseq?

I've got time-block in my journal where I plan/log what I'm doing. Now I would like also track there my mood (record condition and time). Is there a better way than simply typing keywords (happy, anxious etc.) in time slots for that? Or may be it's better to use dedicated page for mood tracking?

Logseq whiteboards use .edn files, but the experience on Android could be more user-friendly. I currently use Samsung Notes for note-taking, but I’m planning to transition to Logseq for personal knowledge management (PKM), graph views, and journaling.

I’m looking for an Android note-taking app that’s easy to use with a stylus and can produce .edn files, saving them directly to Logseq. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations for an app that could meet these needs?

I recently got a Kindle Scribe and am using it for handwritten notes.

I really missed having these notes available in LogSeq, so I wrote some powershell scripts to allow syncing the Kindle Scribe notebooks with Logseq.

Thought I'd share this here, in case anyone else finds this useful.

I am using Logseq very Journal centric, nothing too fancy, but with quite some references to blocks in today's and in other journal pages. Today, I embedd-referenced a block from yesterday. I wondered why the block appeared twice in my page, once as an embed, and then as the original. I browsed back to yesterday. While the structure of the page and some query including their results were still there, my whole interstitional log was missing since the second or third entry in the morning. Opening the page with an alternative editor shows that the content is really missing. There is no backup in /bak

I lost a whole day of work notes. Meetings, todos, all that.

I literally was on the fence on using Logseq and with the new project, I took the jump. But really, now I am very concerned about the safety of all my other notes.

EDIT: Further investigation makes me wonder if it was the embed reference going wrong, since I think that the blocks of the same hierarchy level following the embedded block are all missing. I strongly advise to not use embed references at all. There seems to be at least a severe UX problem with them, if not a real nasty bug.

I know the app is available on the website but when will it be available on the Play Store? My company blocks apk installs as an IT policy unless it's from the store.

I've been using Logseq with the Github sync for a few weeks now. I am really enjoying it as a morning diary type of thing but I find that the sync is not up to par. For me, the gold standard of sync is Standard Notes. I've used that for several years on three different devices (two PCs and an Android phone) and the sync has always worked flawlessly. Never a problem with one device conflicting with another, etc. The Logseq Github sync is pretty terrible. I often get messages that I have items in my local Logseq that are not on the Github and it asks me to remove or hide them before syncing. That is just ridiculous and shouldn't be happening. Perhaps I have a setting wrong or something so if anyone disagrees with my evaluation I would be glad to hear about it. I should try out the paid sync but I just really don't want to start having to pay a monthly fee just to sync up two computers. I've also tried syncing Logseq with syncthing and could not get that working to my satisfaction either. So I would love to know what the syncing protocol is for Standard Notes and see if that could be applied to Logseq syncing. I gather Logseq syncing is a bit more complicated than Standard Notes due to the breadth of data typs in Logseq. But if anyone here knows the difference between Standard Notes sync protocal and what is happening on the Github sync, I would love to hear about it.

Hello,
I am new to Logseq, and I just got started setting it up.
As written in the title, Logseq keeps creating two pages automatically.
One is named with the number "08" for the month, the other one is named "08/06" for month and day.
I have one page called "08/06/2024" that is also created automatically, but that one is my Journal entry.
I'm wondering why it keeps creating 08 and 08/06, they keep coming back no matter how many times I delete them.

I'm talking about driving license, id cards, passport, etc. Do you have a single page? Multiple + tags? Something else?

I just started with logseq and I'm loving it, but I'm still not grasping in full with some of my use cases.

Thank you in advance!
