I created a base called “session.base”, which has name, date and topic. In different documents, I want to embed this base and use different filters, let’s say in one document the embed filter by topic “AI” and in the other document by topic “research”, etc. When I apply the AI filter in the embedded session.base inside that document, it also affects the embed of research in the other document. How can I use this base in two different places, using two different filters, without having to create a base for each of these filters? I thought that was the purpose of filter by “this view” only, but that doesnt seem to be the use case.
Here is the document showing how to embeds sync automatically with the same filter instead of keeping different filters per embed.
So we have to manually create each view for each of these filters, right? I did that as a workaround, but as I have a dozen topics is cumbersome. It would be great if we could do this programmatically.
Think it depends on how each user structures their vaults. For my category pages (maps of content / indexes / whatever term people like), I use a single view that filters based on the file it is embedded in. I don’t hard code anything:
file.hasLink(this)
So one Base, one view, fifty-odd different categories all taken care of. I use similar structures throughout so I don’t have to keep coding different Bases.
