Should items in bases task view render as task notes?

[dlethin]

Hello. I'm experimenting with TaskNotes and Bases. I've setup a base filtered with a file tag property containing #task

I then create a view using the TaskNote Task List Layout and my items show up, but they are not rendered as TaskNotes (for example, seeing the color circle indicating priority, etc. due dates, project tags, etc

Is that intentional?

I was watching this youtube video:

https://youtu.be/SRavkMUYWzo?si=dXbYgIGHDfv7n6v2&t=82 (Upgrading Obsidian Bases with the TaskNotes plugin)

At at that timestamp I've included in the link, you can see the tasks in view rendered like TaskNotes suggesting that is how it should look, but that doesn't work for me.

I just get the file name though if the task is done, the title has a strike-through font.

What's weird is that if I toggle between the general bases table and the task view, I briefly see for a second the item render as a tasknote and then that disappears and all that's left is the file title.

I'm using Obsidian 1.10.1 (Installer 1.8.9)
And TaskNotes plugin 3.25.3

I can recreate this with a slimmed down vault -- only the TaskNotes plugin is installed and I'm using the default configuration.

Any ideas? Thanks.

I will add that if I choose TaskNotes Kanban Layout, the items are rendered like as TaskNote

Hi @dlethin

Hopefully it's just a miconfiguration issue.

Can you please check the solution to #916 and let us know if that solves it for you?

If it does, please remember to close the issue to keep.thimgs tidy.

Cheers

Yes, this indeed was the problem. In hindsight, I guess it's fairly obvious, but I would never have thought of this, as my mind was fixated on assuming it was just going to be handled similarly to how the link gets rendered in other notes.

Thank you so much for this fast answer and the work you do on this plugin. It's jam-packed with useful stuff

I'm glad it worked!
I'm just a fellow user who benefits a lot from this incredible plugin and contributes to some features from time to time. We're on the same boat 👍
