Rubicon Tom 0 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I'm having trouble creating a stack. Can't seem to find any specific instructions on this subject. Any thoughts? Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted February 20, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted February 20, 2012 To create a stack, drag a notebook onto another notebook. Now you have a stack containing those two notebooks. You can rename the stack if you want. Also see the Knowledge Base article: https://support.ever...ction-to-Stacks Link to comment
Level 5 Wern 244 Posted February 20, 2012 Level 5 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Another way, besides what Jeff suggested:Right click on a notebook >> Add to stack >>New StackWern Link to comment
Darrell 0 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Regarding the paid version, can I have multiple sub folders within a stack or am I another one of the users that must embrace tags? Link to comment
tardis 87 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Regarding the paid version, can I have multiple sub folders within a stack or am I another one of the users that must embrace tags?There are no stacks within stacks — premium or free. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted February 21, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted February 21, 2012 You can have multiple notebooks in a stack, but you cannot nest stacks within other stacks, nor can you nest notebooks or stacks in other notebooks. There are no folders in Evernote. Link to comment
marion 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Hello. I can't create a stack! When I right-click on a notepad, there's no option to add to a stack, create a stack, or anything to do with stacks! I've also tried dragging one notebook into another, but that also doesn't work. Please can you advise me? (I've got the most recent version, 4.3.something.Thanks! Link to comment

marion 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Thanks so much for your swift reply. Um, this is a bit embarrassing, but I've checked and I got it wrong! I have got latest version - 4.5.3.6131. But I really don't get anything about stacks when I right-click a notebook!Cheersmarion Link to comment
Owyn 457 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Ummm. What options do you see when you use: Evernote Windows -> Left Panel -> Notebooks -> Some Notebook -> Right Click You should have a Add to Stack -> New Stack option. Link to comment

Level 5 Wern 244 Posted March 8, 2012 Level 5 Share Posted March 8, 2012 So, could you finally create your stack? Link to comment
marion 0 Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Dear BurgernfriesThank you!!!! That's it!! I feel like a giant UK twit (although at 4 foot 9 inches I'm a small giant twit). But I was indeed clicking on notes rather than notebook!! Very very embarrassing, but who cares?? Thanks to you I can now get really organised with my notes for the mental health charity I run.Cheersmarion Link to comment
jeanettex 0 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 NOTEBOOKS INTO NOTEBOOKS I am continually frustrated by the inability to organize intuitively on my new wonderful tool- evernote.Will they ever fix it so that one can put a notebook into a notebook? Is there something inherently difficult about programming that way? i really like so many features, but as an organizational tool, there are drawbacks. the best organizers are those who act like file cabinets, where one can put things inside of other things.

Please search the board on sub notebooks. This has been discussed at great length already. Link to comment

Is there something inherently difficult about programming that way? i really like so many features, but as an organizational tool, there are drawbacks. the best organizers are those who act like file cabinets, where one can put things inside of other things.Programming is about making choices. Evernote has evidently decided that -- at least for the present -- notebooks are not generally nestable. It's not a matter if easy or difficult, it's a matter of what they chose. Currently you can: Put notes in a notebook. Put notebooks in a stack. Put tags on a note. Funny thing, though. My file cabinet is not arbitrarily nestable either. Link to comment
megsaint 441 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Funny thing, though. My file cabinet is not arbitrarily nestable either. I find filing cabinets so arbitrary. I'm trying to figure out how to organize the real world with tags! Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted April 28, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted April 28, 2013 @megsaint: the quote thingy is hard to do when you're editing in rich-text mode; I usually switch to BBCode mode (little button at the top left of the editing controls), which shows the control codes). Link to comment
megsaint 441 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Thanks, jefito. Finally figured that out but only after I managed to double post. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted April 28, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted April 28, 2013 Took me a couple of shots to figure it out myself, after they changed the forum software. Link to comment
