Greetings! for some context i wanted to make a Dashboard in my Obsidian vault to enhance my productivity. The idea is quite simple: use a js dataview query to render notes related to my personal goals. In each note, i’ve made a custom progress bar with CSS and a js dataview query that updates dinamically through checkboxes (like this one - ). In the Dashboard i’m trynna render the checkbar along other important metadata components such as a banner that i implemented with the plugin “Simple Banner”. Problem being: the image renders theoretically but shows none (i say theoretically because in the inspector i can see that the reference to the image is set). As shown in the image, something is messing in the render of the query. Also, i use the Typewriter theme for Obsidian, and i’m using the Datacards plugin to style the query this way.

Here, is the code used in the Dashboard:
