Re: Customizing journal plugin per notebook

 

I am also interested in having Zim journal adapted for project tracking. This would be a useful tool in my work. Personally I use journal in week mode, but I prefer a flat structure of 52 weeks in a year. I also would like to have [week number + some text] in page name. But I do not have yet a clear idea about multiple projects structure.

I do not know Zim in the guts, so I am concerned if making changes in journal plugin can cause a side effect in Zim behavior and/or problems with other associated plugins.

exactly that purpose - tracking different projects.
I don't like the way the files are created right now (I use the week
mode so it creates Week X named page). It'd be better if I could put
those files inside month of the year, like 2016/September/Week X.

Looks like I got something to kill time on weekends.

    Hi,

    Just to say, I'd also be interested in small modifications of the
    journal plugin, namely

    - having multiple journals per notebook (below different parent
    pages) and
    - allowing one page per /entry/ (rather than per month, day, etc.)
    in a flat or almost-flat structure.

    I envision that this would give me a fast way to create "project
    journals" and link to them from other pages.

    A way to dynamically create page names would be part of this, so I'm
    interested in what you're doing, and maybe we can join forces.

    Can you explain what exactly you want to achieve?

    Best, Steffen

    That answers the first question - about having per notebook
    configuration.

    Looks like I have to edit the journal plugin to have it generate
    filenames like I prefer?

        Hi Nilesh,

        I am not sure what you mean by "custom configuration", but I
        think you can get Zim plugins configured differently per
        notebook if you define a different profile for each notebook.
        You can try this going to >File >Properties and define a name
        in the Profile field. Do this for each notebook and make sure
        you define a different profile name for each notebook.

            Hello zim users,

            Is it possible to have custom configuration for the
            journal plugin per notebook?
            Also how about changing the way the plugin generates *file
            names* (not page
            names, I know how to do that)?
