What I’m trying to do
I’m attempting to use the DataView plugin in Obsidian to create a table that lists wines grouped by their grape type. Specifically, I want each wine name (link) to appear on its own individual line within a table cell for clarity, rather than being joined by commas.
Here’s the DataView code I’ve been working with:
dataviewCopy code
TABLE
length(rows.file.link) as "Number of Wines",
join(link(rows.file.path, rows.winename), ", ") as "Wine Names"
FROM "8. Wine"
WHERE file.path != this.file.path
FLATTEN grape
GROUP BY grape
SORT length(rows.file.link) DESC
Things I have tried
-
- Docs and Forum Search Terms:
- “Dataview line break in table”
- “Obsidian DataView separate lines within cell”
- “Dataview newline character”
- Solutions Attempted:
- Used the newline character (
\n
) within thejoin
function to separate links.
- Used the newline character (
Result: None of these solutions worked as expected. The links still appear joined by commas, and I couldn’t achieve the desired line-by-line output within the table cell.
Any help greatly appreciated! thanks all
