    Preview: Campaign Logger vNext (beta access)

    Today I noticed that we have labels for the "Tags" in standard Logger, but not vNext. Is that coming? Because I REALLY like seeing those words (especially as a new user) and being able to customize them to fit my brain. I know they show up on a hover, but having them THERE is infinitely...

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    FWIW I don't see any complications from the Campaign Entry side of things. Those make perfect sense to me (maybe that's my linear, hierarchical brain talking?). How anyone wants to use them, if at all (since they are totally optional) can of course vary. I plan to use them for stuff that won't...

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    I 100% get the intent. And I LIKE how sandboxy it is. It just wasn't MY sandbox, so I didn't understand what you'd DO with it. Or maybe more accurately, HOW you'd make use of it. Which was why I just wanted to know what the people who built it were thinking - like you said, it had a purpose...

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    I think you've answered your own question already - just call them "Entries". Keep everything one word, and don't overthink it. The only thing that makes it confusing is that the label that's VISIBLE in CL is just "Log" regardless of if it's a Log or Log Entry. If you can add in a visual tree...

    I had the same issue the other day - turned out that I'd been logged out but it hadn't updated that status on the particular page I was one. A refresh and login solved this for me as well.

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    Thank you for this! This is exactly what I (and several others in another thread) were looking for. I've been attempting to base most of my thinking around a blog post you wrote explaining this structure, as it's the ONLY one I've found that tries to explain the thinking behind Logger. (As I've...

    Preview: Campaign Logger vNext (beta access)

    Actual "bugs" I found today: I've got a link to Logger vNext on my iPhone (running iOS 13) Home Screen (you can do this by opening a website in Safari and "sending" it to the Home Screen - it works pretty well when there's no dedicated app). It looks fine - exactly matches the Windows "app" in...

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    Honestly, IDK. Organization isn't my strong suit - hence turning to somebody else for a system! lol Left to my own devices I tend to work with nested lists: top level, sub level, sub-sub level, etc. Usually unordered, un-numbered. I think terminology is flexible, so whatever works for people...

    Organizing Logs in Campaign Logger vNext

    I mentioned this is a totally different (non-beta-related) thread, but... I dislike the way literally everything is just called a "log" with no way to differentiate between levels when talking about them. It makes it tough to communicate what we're talking about here, AND makes it hard to...

    Preview: Campaign Logger vNext (beta access)

    I started playing with vNext yesterday (hadn't actually touched CL since I bought it back in 2017! oops) because vNext has several features that seem... critical to how my brain works. The Campaign Entry feature especially. I like to keep track of NPCs and stuff independent of a given session...

    Share Example Log

    Same. Literally, specifically this. I know it's built for Loopy Planning - that was literally Johnn's point in developing it, so I KNOW it works. It's just not organized quite how my brain naturally wants to organize things - and the last thing I want to do is be fighting another piece of...

    Share Example Log

    Same! I'm having a real hard time wrapping my head around the intended STRUCTURE of logs in CL. (all my searching hasn't turned up anything that's really "clicked" for me) Seems like we have logs inside logs inside logs... and tag linking only extends so far. I keep wanting to just start...
