Maggie, this is amazing & I'm applying your ideas to my own Digital Garden.
Question on one element in CSS.
What do you use this for (adds an emoji). Why don't you have an icon or emoji in the page title itself?
span.rm-page-ref[data-tag="Idea Bank"]:before {
content: ''

Weird aesthetic preference - like the flexibilty of only showing the icon/emoji when I use the # tag. Then have the option of without by using [[Page Brackets]].
Tried putting icons into page titles but the spacing gets awkward. Putting it in CSS lets me control the position
Ah, fascinating. I had no idea it was even possible to only show when using a # tag.
I use emojis for any core topics, both for search visibility and to remind myself of its importance to me.
That was before I knew about tag styling! Tags with color background is great!
