My god that took WAY too long to figure out!

Apparently org-roam doesn't search in tags as default, why oh why!

Isn't that the whole point of adding tags, to be able find shit using them?!

Anyhow adding
(setq org-roam-node-display-template
(concat "${title:*} "
(propertize "${tags:10}" 'face 'org-tag)))

From: https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/pull/2054)

Personally I preferred more than 10 characters for the tag

@tacosandlinux @attilasedon yeah, org-roam-extract-subtree is good for extracting a subtree to a new file. But sometimes it's just nice to have ids on the headings and subheadings. I also like to change the display template so that you can see the node hierarchy. https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam/wiki/User-contributed-Tricks#showing-node-hierarchy

#orgroam

@oatmeal I moved from #orgroam to #denote about a year ago. It’s probably not as efficient, but it’s clearly less brittle

What's the state of the art in getting read/write access to notes, tasks and agendas from org-mode on Android? I like some of how #logseq does it but its directory structure is a bit of a straightjacket and it doesn't quite play nicely with native #emacs #OrgMode and #OrgRoam.

Been converting my #ObsidianMD notes to #Emacs #orgRoam yesterday and today. It occurred to me there must be a search and replace function, which I found and sped up my conversion no end.
Starting to get the hand of #orgMode now too!

#TIL: Since I sync my zettelkasten-esque Org Roam folder across multiple devices, using Syncthing, every once in while I’d get file conflicts and revisions and the Org Roam db would panic and log errors, because it would find multiple versions of the same file.

Today I learnt, I could exclude subfolders from my Org Roam path. using `org-roam-file-exclude-regexp`

I put in both my Syncthing subfolders and et voilà, no more errors!

`(setq org-roam-file-exclude-regexp '("\\.stversions" "\\.stfolder"))`

`#Syncthing #Emacs #OrgRoam `

org-roam's decision to delete other windows when opening a capture buffer is far too intrusive. Serious design flaw in my opinion.

Furthermore, it doesn't seem to play nice with #EXWM windows.

#orgroam #Emacs

It's taken over a day, but I'm finally back to square 1 with Doom Emacs! Now to see if it was my config messing up #orgRoam.

A while ago I started exploring #OrgMode / #OrgRoam (in #Emacs), & later also its ability to export documents into other formats, like HTML pages, PDF files, and #Atlassian #Confluence markup.

That last was still a bit of a pain, repeatedly copying the output into the Confluence edit interface (after clearing content, etc).

I've automated that now using the Confluence (Server) API. Just add a few “#+confluence-*” attributes and create a config file, then run a script.

@pgwang on mobile I mostly use Orgzly and Logseq. When I want the full experience I use termux and emacs. Syncthing to keep files across devices mirrored.

@alxlg also honestly, being able to administrate *any* and all files via a pkm tool would be extremely awesome. Tools like #DevonThink and #TagSpaces or theBrain with their ability to manage other files (and #orgRoam with its reference nodes) meet parts of an itch I keep having about being unable to extend the ressources links and associations beyond my motes. I would really love to be able to deep-reference and see in graph view these things, see and manage metadata etc

I ported some #emacs #orgMode functionality specific to #orgRoam over to Denote. Maybe something that others might find useful.

Gotta love #emacs!

I wanted to share many common #orgroam notes between different contexts/profiles, and using an :around advice sledge-hammer, everything is possible!

Now org-roam thinks my common notes is a descendant subfolder even though it resides elsewhere on the filesystem.

Since I settled on #orgmode as my preferred way of taking notes (mainly because using babel as a language playground is so useful) I’ve wanted a way to capture stuff I come across when browsing on my iPhone.

I tried various iPhone apps (plain org, beorg, logseq) but they are either too agenda focused or don’t support image attachments smoothly. Add to this the hassle of getting the data onto linux - moebus sync kinda works but keeps getting killed by the iOS power saving.

I like bear as an iOS taking app but it’s locked to the apple ecosystem and iCloud.

However, it turns out bear keeps its data in a combination of an SQLite data for the notes and plain files for the images and file attachments. So I knocked up < 200 lines of elisp to import the notes and images into #orgroam. It’s a one way merge- I’m not going to try writing to bear- but in roam I can treat those notes as an inbox.

It’s a custom hack and I’m not publishing it but it works nicely.

@mattontech #emacs, #orgmode , and #orgroam gotcha covered :)

Hi #emacs people! Can someone give me some resources on #orgroam? It doesn’t quite stick with me and I feel like I don’t understand it.

Some resources touching Zettelkästen would also be appreciated. Anything goes, although I tend to prefer text format.

So I’ve given it a few weeks and I’m totally into #OrgRoam for my notes. Capturing stuff is easy and I’m already programmed to save changes with c-c c-c from magit commits.

However, I have yet to use the backlinks, using search always seems to give me what I want. Maybe that will change when I have thousands of notes?
