Master Your Tasks in Tana With 3 Simple Command Buttons

July 24, 2023

In today's video, I'm going to show you three quick & easy command buttons you can add to your task supertag so you can spend less time managing tasks and more time actually doing tasks.I find that a lot of people are still not using commands either because they don't know how, they don't know what they can do with them OR it all just seems a little complex. So in this video - I want to help fix all three of those issues. Managing stuff in Tana as great. But having to open & close nodes all the time to change fields can be annoying. And that's where buttons can be your best friend.

Timestamps:

00:00 Introduction

02:03 Change the Status Field

06:08 Change the type of task

08:36 Add A Date to a field
