So i’m an internet noob trying to use data view in obsidian
I made this at the top of the page
Author: E. Renzoni
Date: 2021-07-07
Tags: Sarcoidose
Rating: ★★★★☆
and this at the bottom of the page
Author:: Vasileios Kouranos
Date:: 2019-07-07
Tags:: Sarcoidose Grave
Rating:: ★★☆☆☆
Now, i was using data view and i wanted to filter just the E. Renzoni author
First, to know it was working i wrote this:
TABLE author, date, tags, rating
FROM #Sarcoidose
and both author appeared
When i wrote this:
TABLE author, date, tags, rating
FROM #Sarcoidose
WHERE Author = “E. Renzoni”
It doesn’t filter any results
Things I have tried
So i’ve tried going back and doing the dataview only at the top of the notes and to documents and that filter worked
TABLE author, date, tags, rating
FROM “Doenças do Interstício”
WHERE Author = “E. Renzoni”
In this case, E. renzoni appears for the other documents where the metadata is written at the top (Notas and IPF), but doens’t appear in the note sarcoidose where she “shares space” with the metadata from Vasileos.
What I’m trying to do
Maybe it’s impossible to filter by author within the same note?
I just wanted, within se same page, write metadata like this:
Author:: Vasileios Kouranos
Date:: 2019-07-07
Tags:: Sarcoidose Grave
Rating:: ★★☆☆☆
and then filter it within the same page
Thank you
