Logseq working tasks workflow (feddit.online)

I've been using Logseq for quite a while now and love it, however I'm kind of stuck on something in my process. When I work on something at my job, I'm often working on it for multiple days. How does anyone here capture that?

Do you do something like this?

[[figure out how to create x]]  
  - item 1  
    - subitem 1  
    - subitem 2  
  - item 2  
[[change out every y in all of the zs]]  
  - action 1  
  - action 2

The thing is, I can then go to each one of those as a page and see everything, but I can't add to it for that day. I can just start the next day with an entry of [[figure out how to create x]], but I won't be able to see the whole thing while I'm doing it. I also won't be able to add something in context, like this without removing it from the day I'm working on it:

[[figure out how to create x]]  
  - item 1  
    - subitem 1  
      - subsubitem 1  
    - subitem 2  
  - item 2

I see that you can copy and paste block refs, but that largely is the same thing as a page.

Do any of you deal with this? Should I not be so concerned about keeping my edits for the day?

If these are just random ideas to brainstorm for a project, you could just assign a unique hashtag... like #2025project1

Then you can view that specific page and see all the references. The page is created and you can start working permanent notes to that page or continue using journal mode to collect ideas.

I don't think I will have much success trying to work on a project in journal mode, so permanent pages are important, but the journal mode lets you collect ideas so you can later organize and make official in its dedicated page.

Yeah, I think I just need to de-couple the idea of a journal with some multi-day task or project. Good idea. I do think I'll keep the journal thing since my job has a lot of physical equipment in/out that I like to just mark down.

@KenOh @appropriateghost Journal is mostly to collect things and pages are references. I usually make a page per project with a main task in it tagged with project. That way I can easily find my open projects. Put that in the sidebar and while journalling know what to link to for time records/meetings.

That makes total sense.

I love your videos, btw! I found them when I first started using Logseq.

@KenOh always great to hear! Glad they were useful
