JorgeC 1 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 USE CASEAs an IT Consultant I like to use Evernote to maintain a Master List of Projects and then Detail a Plan for each corresponding project, and then document the activity performed via a Work Log for each line item of the Detail Plan. This results in a very practical 3 tier hiararchy from an organizational perspective.Based on some Evernote productivity recommendations out there I use a Master to Child Document approach whereby I hyperlink the Work Log note to the corresponding line item on the Detail Plan and in turn I hyperlink the Detail Plan to the corresponding line item on the Master Link of Projects.I also use the above layered Project Management document approach for Enterprise Architecture, Software Development and other similar methodologies.FEATURE RECOMMENDATIONAccordingly, although the Share/Copy Note URL feature of Evernote provides the means to achieve the above via several steps, I beleive a large population of users would benefit from functionality whereby:While in an existing document, right click while highlighting a word, line items, etc, and be able to select a Create and Link a new document.In turn the new created document can further streamline the process by inhereting the highlighted text as the Note title, the related Notebook, and perhaps a hyperlink back to the master document, to yield a threaded navigation.I think given Evernote's inherent search, share, tag, to do functionality, the above would energize the brain dump, organize, delegate and follow-up process.

geetarplayer 6 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I've been using Evernote seriously for maybe a week. And this very thing is the one missing feature that jumped out at me. This would be great. Link to comment
Joris G 9 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Good idea!This would go one more step in "wikifying" Evernote and I think that would be very useful.Next step would be to make multi-level stacks (stacks in stacks), creating a real hierarchy.In my previous job (as intranet manager of a Very Big Organisation) I was a heavy user of Confluence wikis and I would recommend the Evernote development team to take a good look at that product :-)Most excellent stuff, this Confluence, but too difficult to set up for the individual user, which is why I now use Evernote for similar documenting and collaboration activities in my private life.

Not sure that Evernote's aim is to become a wiki, though. Link to comment
zseverson 0 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 This is exactly what I have been looking to do as well. This feature would help me (and others I've talked to) tremendously! Evernote, Any chance this will happen? Thanks in advance! Link to comment
