    You're the best. I finally understand a little bit of the structure of writing dvjs. I have quite a number of dataview sample vault, but I still know very little about code. Subscribing to see more on dvjs!

    Awesome video, Danny! I added one more field underneath "TABLE WITHOUT ID": "("![Image|100](" + image + ")") as Image" so now if the contact has the `image` field with a photo url address in the contact, it will render beside their name.

    Thanks for this very clear video! I have only one remark/question. I use links in one of my properties. According to the instruction in the help file, a link should be like "[[notename]]" (so including quotation marks). If you look in source mode this is exactly what you see. But when you use this notation of the link in a WHERE statement, it results in an empty query. But without the quotation marks it works well. This seems to me inconsistent. Do you agree, or have I misinterpreted the instructions?

    I agree. Dataviee and Obsidian property syntax are not exactly the same. Datatypes become a friction point when doing more advanced queries with expressions. A frustration, hopefully Obsidian databases may solve.

    One serious question. Is it possible to make functional metadata keys with more than two words with blankspaces in between? Because it gives me errors, so, I tried to put some parenthesis and apostrophes combinations with no success at all. Thanks in advance.
