1. Digital Planning Class Intro: If you want to create
your own digital planner, but don't know where to
start or how to start, or you have been creating your own digital planner and
you want to see how I do it. This class is for you. In this class I'm
going to show you my basic step-by-step process on how I create my
digital planners. And at the end of the class, you will be able to
create your own. And the project
for this class is this digital planner here. So if you are
ready, let's begin.
2. Advice on How To Get the Most Out of This Class: If you're new to digital
planner creation, I suggest an advice you to
watch the entire class first and take some notes and ideas as they come to you
while watching, and then come back to
the first lesson with the materials you will need to create the digital planner, which I will discuss
in the next lesson. And if you are not
new and you have already created some
digital planners, then you can just dive
in into the class, but this is just a suggestion. So do what is best for you. See you in the next lesson.
3. What You Will Need: Only device you will
be needing to follow this class is an
electronic device that will enable you to create presentations using
an app like Keynote, Microsoft PowerPoint and such. The instructions
for this class is specifically for the iPad users, but you can still follow along since I will
be showing you the overall process
which you can apply when using similarity devices
and applications. And if you are wondering, I will be using my
20.92012 inch iPad Pro. If you have a digital pen stylus such as the Apple pencil, I recommend that you
should use it too. This is not a requirement, but this helps a lot when
creating a digital planner as it makes the process
faster and with more ease, I will be using my
second-generation Apple pencil in this class. For the application, you can use any app that will enable
you to add links in it. These applications usually are where you can create
presentations. If you use an Apple product, the app is called Keynote. And if you are an
Android or Windows user, I think you can use
Microsoft PowerPoint. You can also use
Google Slides or Adobe InDesign if these apps are
the ones available to you. Since I will be using the iPad, I will also be using the Keynote app to create
the digital planner. The Keynote app is a free app
that comes with your iPad. And if you haven't
installed it yet, you can go to the
App Store and search keynote and download the app. That's all the physical
assets you will be needing to create your
own digital planners. In the next lesson, I will
be showing you how you can get the digital assets
for this class.
4. The Digital Assets: The digital assets, I have provided an illustration
which you can use for the design elements of your digital planner and a digital planner
guide to help you in the creation process to download the class materials open the glass is through
the website. If you are using an iPad, access the class through Safari, then had to Projects
and Resources section. And you will see here the
list of the digital assets. Select the file and then download the file
via this window. Up the download icon, and you will see the file here, then use the share
button, then save image. Let's do that on the other file. Do for the PDF guide, use the share button to
download it to your iPad. The share icon then
save to files, and then select
the location where you want the file to be stored. Once you have downloaded
or the glass materials, you are ready to create
the class project, which is a monthly
digital planner. See you in the next lesson.
5. Setting Up the Digital Planner Foundations: We're now going to start
creating the digital planner. Let's open the Keynote app. And in here, tap the Create presentation
and choose a theme. You will be presented with
different styles and themes, but I usually just
use the basic white. Once we have chosen the theme, let's open the PDF guide I
have provided for the class. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and drag
the first icon. Then let's open the PDF file. So here is our guide. If you want to have the
whole screen real estate, you can change the split view
setting to a slide over. And you can do that by dragging the three dots at
the top like this. We can just hide it when
we're not using it. And that is how you set up the foundations of
your digital planner. See you in the next lesson.
6. Setting Up the Digital Planner Dimensions : In this part of the
digital planner creation, we are going to set
up the dimensions. Digital planners sizes are very important since it affects
the loading speed, this space your digital
planner will use in your device and how large or how small your brushes can be, especially if you're
using the GoodNotes app. So to set up the size, you can go to the other option, which is the three
dotted icon here. Then go to the document setup, then tap on the slide
size, and then costume. We are going to use 1024 as the width and 690 as the height. Once you have set that up, tap Done, then tap Done again
in the upper right corner. That's how you can set up the dimensions for
your digital planner.
7. Creating the Slide Layouts: Now let's open the how to create a digital planner
guide PDF file. In here, I have
prepared a guide on the three slide layout
designs we are going to eat. First, tap anywhere in the screen and let's
access the slide layout. We're going to use this
slide layout here, and we won't be needing
this elements here that on the Select
Objects option, then select all, then tap Done, and then choose Delete. Now we're going to
add the illustration, which is our design element. And you have downloaded
this along with the PDF guide awhile
ago to add a photo, tap the plus icon. There, the photo icon, tap a photo or video and then
select the illustration. Here is the first slide layout, which we are going to use
for the second slide layout. It is the same as the
first slide layout, except that the design
element is transparent. So what we're going
to do is tap on the thumbnail and
select Duplicate. This is the duplicated copy now, and we are just going to change
the opacity of the photo, the customize the opacity, tap the photo and
then the brush icon, then lower the opacity. I'm going to adjust
mine to around 20%. This slide layout will be
used for our tracker page, extra pages and
journaling pages. For the next slide
layout design, if you're going to compare
it to the previous one, the only difference is the ninth circles
in the right side. Let's duplicate this again by tapping and then
choose Duplicate. Now we're going to
add the circles. So to add tap the Plus icon
and then the shapes icon. And under the basic shapes, choose circles or any
shape you want to use. You can move the
circles by tapping hold and then dragging it. You can also resize
it if you want. You can also undo, let me just move
my plant a lethal. You can undo using
this icon here. Now you can freely
resize this circle here. But if you want to
keep the ratio of the dimensions of this shape
the same one resizing. You can select the shape, then tap the brush icon, then under arrange, turn on the constrained
proportions option. Now in your size, the shape, the proportions of the
shape will be kept intact. If you want to zoom in or out, you can do that by pinching
in or out of the screen. Although these trig
might not work depending on the iPad
model you are using, try it as this is very
helpful and adding smaller details to
your digital planner. So I'm going to resize
this circle to 50. If you're having a hard time adjusting the circle
to the exact value, select the shape and
go to the Brush icon. And then under arrays, you can change the width and height of the selected shape. If you want to change the
color of the selected shape, select the shape and go to the Brush icon and
their style tap Fill, then select the color you want. In here you can
select Simple colors. Here you can select
gradient, then an image. And under color you can swipe to the left
and you can select any color you want using
this color wheel here. And you can also add
a border if you want. Since we needed nine of these, you can just copy this
shape that we have already set up and then paste. If these guides are
not appearing for you, you can go to the
presentation mode. Then in the three dot
icon, go to Guides. Then turn on the
guide that you want. If you are not sure
which guide to use, you can just turn
on all of them. So let's go back to
this slide layout. Since we needed nine of this, I want the process to be faster. You can use the Select
Objects option, then select the two circles, copy and then paste. I will just continue
on the copy and paste process until I
reach nine circles. And now we have created the three slide layouts
for the digital manner. On the next lesson,
we are going to actually start creating
the digital planner. So see you in the next lesson.
8. The Calendar Page: Last lesson we have
finished creating the three slide layouts
for this digital planner. So let's go back to
the presentation to start creating the
digital planner. Since the first slide uses the first slide layout
we have created, and it is the design
of the cover page. We can go directly to
the calendar page. If you refer to the
digital planner guide, you will see that
the basic design for the calendar page is similar to the second slide
layout we have created. So select the second
slightly out, and it is the slide layout
without the circles. I start my week on a Monday, so I'm going to create a
calendar which starts on Monday. The general process will
still be the same if you start your week
in any other day. Also for this digital planner
that we're going to create, it is the monthly digital
planner for August 2022. So keep that in mind. And if you want to create a digital planner for
any month of the year, you can just follow along with me in the digital planner guide. The calendar page has a
title which is the month, and then two lines on both
sides of the month title. Then the calendar. To add these elements, use the plus icon and
their basic shapes. Select PECS, double-tap
on the word, then edit. I'm going to create an August 2022 monthly
digital planners. I'm going to type August
double-tap to highlight the word and then go to the Brush icon
to change its properties. You can change the font size
of the highlighted text. You can change it the bold, italicize or underline
or strike through. And then you can also
change the font style. I think the size
is a little small, so I'm going to
increase the size more. You can also change the color
of the text if you want. To add the lines which
are these lines here, can again use the blast icon and then select the line option. Then you can change
the width here to adjust the thickness
of the line. I'm going to use three and
they just copy and paste this line for the other
one to the other side. Now let's add the actual
calendar for this page. Tap on the plus icon again for the calendar to have the
perfect spacing between these, I'm going to use tables. I usually use this basic
one for the calendar. There will be eight columns, seven will be for the
days of the week, N14, the week numbers. Just the number of
columns in the table. Just stop this one, then adjust it to eight. For the number of rows for August 2022 with a Monday start, there are five weeks plus another row for the
week day labels, then we will need six rows. As you can see in the
digital planner guide, the first column is
smaller than the rest. Digest the size of a
column that the a column, and then adjust the
size by dragging this to small parallel lines. I also want the topmost row
to be smaller than the rest. So tap and adjust the two small horizontal lines as well to edit
the entire table, tap the icon in the
upper left of the table, go to the Brush icon and
then sell, then cell border. So I want the outer border to be thick and black in the colors. Select the color black, and then adjust the width. Do 34, the inner line
for the line type, I want it to be
this dotted line. Then adjust the width to two. And as you can see, the size of this column is not the
same as the others. So let's also correct that
this select the table, then tap and select all
the cells except for the uppermost row and the left-most column
under the table category, select the row and column size. You want the height
to be the same. So let's adjust that. I'm going to adjust
the height, do 98. And for the 127. Then Let's recenter the
table on the slide. Now let's add the days of the
week in the uppermost row, which is for me, it is Monday to Sunday. Once you have typed
all that in and you want to change the
properties of the texts. Just select the text, then tap the brush icon, and then go to cell and
make the adjustments. We're also going to add the week number in the
left column in here. I'm just adding the
week number with a W and then D number. Let's change the properties
of these column two. And now let's add the dates. If you're not creating this
calendar for August 2022, please make the
necessary changes. Also do that. If yours does
not start on a Monday. These are already added
and I want them to be placed in the upper right
corner of each cell. So to do that, select the cells and then tap this
text alignment options here. I like where the days
are now located, but I think the numbers
are a little bit big, so let's decrease their size. For the calendar,
I want the space to be separated with
the backgrounds. I'm adding a rounded
rectangle that is slightly bigger
than the calendar. It's changed the color to white. Then the opacity to 50 per cent. And I want it to be at the
back of the actual calendar. So tap arrange and then
adjust this slider here. Also, if you want to add
some grid lines here to guide you when you are already using this digital planner, that the plus icon and then
under the table category, use this table in
the brush icon. Let's change the cell
borders of the table. For the borders, I'm
going to use this one. I'm going to change the
color to the wheel. I'm going to use 0.75. You can use smaller
weeds if you want your grid lines to
be more subtle, since this is just a grid line, I'm going to change the
number of columns to one, and I'm going to
add more rows so that the size will be smaller. I think 38 is enough, but let's fill it first. It's correct space in C. I want the grid lines to
be a little smaller steel, so I'm going to
add two more rows. So that is the calendar page. The next lesson we
are going to create the weekly overview pages. So see you in the next lesson.
9. The Weekly Overview Page: In this lesson, we
are going to create the weekly overview page. I use my weekly overview page as my weekly goals page
and my future log page. This means that all the things
I want to accomplish and all meetings and tasks I want to be done in
a particular week, but haven't decided
which particular day I will be accomplishing
them goes here, Let's add a slide for this page. I'm going to use the
same slide layout we have used for the calendar page. Now let's check the digital
planner guide and see the design for the
weekly overview page. It has the same title element
as the calendar page. And in the overview beach, there is also a smaller calendar compared to the calendar
in the calendar page, except that the
Week number is not present for the
weekly overview page. So I'm going to go back to the calendar page
and we're going to select the similar elements
for the overview page. We want the title elements, which is the August 2022 here, and then the two
horizontal lines. And we also want
the calendar and then tap Done and then copy. And in the weekly overview page, let's paste it here. For the calendar in this page, we don't want the first
column, which is eight. So tap the letter a
and tap it again, and then select the
lead from the options. Since the calendar
will be smaller, I will also be changing the label for the
days of the week in the first row to just be the first letters of that
particular day of the week. We're moved the first
column awhile ago, and the left outer border
of the table is different. So let's also change that. Let's also remove the
inner border lines to make the calendar cleaner. And we won't be needing the extra space in
each of the cells. So the dates should now be
centered. Checking the guide. We are going to be needing five spaces for
each of the week. And also the calendar are of the same size as those spaces. Before I forget,
it's also changed the title to weekly overview. And then shorten this
horizontal lines. Now let's add this shape
for the weekly spaces. I'm going to copy this
one and then paste. I'm going to select
these shapes, then group them psych and
uniformly resize them. After resizing and
properly centering them, I have ungroup them again. Then I'm going to change their color using
the brush icon. You can change it to any
color that you want. After changing the color, lower the opacity, I'm going to change your mind
to 44 per cent. You can also add a border shadow and reflection if you want. Since we need do
more weakly spaces, I'm going to select these
two and then copy and paste. As you can see here, the spacing between
the weekly spaces and the title
element is not good. So I'm going to select the weekly spaces elements
and then move them downward. And in the digital
planner guide, the calendar on this page is of the same size as
the villi spaces. So let's resize the calendar. Now, let's add the label for this weekly spaces to
make the process faster, Let's set up the first 1 first and then just copy
this and paste it to the other weekly spaces. Just make sure to
change the week number. After looking at the
weekly overview set up, I'm not liking the green
color for the species, so I'm going to
change them to white. I'm also going to change
the opacity to 65 per cent. Let's also change the
size of the calendar here so that we can add the
name of the month. If you're not liking the
outer border of the calendar, you can also remove that if you want to unify the design of the weekly spaces
with the calendar, I'm also going to add a white background
for the calendar. In this speech. I will
do a lot of writing, so I'm also going to add grid
lines in the weekly spaces. I'm just going to change
the column number 21. I'm also going to
change the line type of the table, two dotted lines. I'm also changing the
color and the width. I'm also removing the
vertical border lines, then increase the
number of rows. One satisfied with
the grid lines, I'm going to copy and paste them in the other weekly spaces. And that is the
weekly overview page of our digital planner. And the next lesson
we are going to create the habit tracker page. So see you there.
10. The Habit Tracker Page: In this lesson, we are going to create the habit tracker page. And in the digital
planner guide, I have added a note
that you can add as many trackers as you like. Now let's add the page
for the habit trackers. Let's use the same slide
layout we have used in the weekly overview page
for the habit tracker. I want small calendars that
are similar to this calendar. So I'm going to select
all the elements in this. I'm also going to use the
same design for the titles. I'm also going to copy this and then paste it in the habit
tracker page and just change the title
to habit tracker. This calendar is a
little big for me, so I'm going to resize it. For the label of the trackers. You can change it to any
habit you want to track. For this first slacker, it is for sleep for
more than seven hours. If the phrase is too long, you can change the size of the
fund to fit this calendar. Once satisfied with the
size of the calendar, I'm going to copy and paste it to make the process faster. Do this until you have created all the
trackers, you want. This one of the advantages of creating your planner digitally. It is so easy to copy and paste the elements that you
want to be duplicated. I think 15 habit
daggers is enough. So I'm just going to change
the spacing of each row of the trackers to finalize
the design of this page. Now I'm just gonna
change the label of each of the trackers. And that's all of the habits
that I want to track. And if you have also finished creating and adding all
your habit trackers. In the next lesson, we are going to create the brain dump page
and other extra pages. So see you in the next lesson.
11. The Creative Pages: In this lesson, we are now going to create the brain
dump page and other miscellaneous and
creative pages in here you can design an ambitious you want
in your digital planner. But I'm going to
show you the pages I will be adding to
my digital planner. We are again going to use the same slide layout which
we have been using for the previous pages and do the same first few processes we used in the previous pages. And that's what we did with the previous pages
we have created. Let's copy the title this sign from the previous pages again. Then go to the current
page and then paste it here and then change the
title to what this page is. So for this patient, this will be my brain dump page. Bring them pages where I
write down ideas and thoughts that I want to access
easily anytime that I want. If you don't use a
brain dump page, you're open to design whatever
page you want for this, let me just adjust my plant
so you can see all of my screen for this page, since it is my brain dump page and I will mostly be writing and adding elements when I'm already using the
digital planner, I'm just going to add grid
lines to make writing easier. I'm adding a slightly
transparent white background to make my scribbles
in the future clear. I also want to separate
it from the illustration. I have added the shape using
the plus icon and change its properties using
the brush icon to add the grid lines, you can use the table as I have shown you in the past lessons. So to make the process
easier and faster, just copy one from
the previous pages we have already created
for the grid lines. I want it to be almost the
same size as the background. I also added more rows to make the spacing of the
grid lines is smaller. In the digital planner guide, you can see that I have added the calendar in the
brain dump page. I'm just going to
copy a calendar from the habit tracker page
and then paste it here. Then change the name of
the calendar to demand, which is August 2022. If you want to access your
weekly pages from here, I suggest that you
add the calendar or if you're creating
a different design, you can still add a
calendar in this page. If you want to access
the weekly pages, I will show you how
to add links from this page later on in the class. I'm also going to add two
more miscellaneous pages, and you're welcome
to be creative in these two pages, if you like. For the other pages set up I'm going to use is the same
with the brain dump page. So I'm just going to copy
all the elements from the page and paste it
here for this page, I want it to be my Explore page. Explore page is a
page where I journal about the certain adventure
I want to remember. It's a memory page focusing
on a single adventure. And for this page, I'm going to use this
for personnel notes. I'm thinking of writing
myself a letter and I'm planning on using
this page for that. So we have already created the other speech or the
miscellaneous pages. So on the next lesson
we are going to create an ad, the weekly pages.
12. The Weekly Pages: Last lesson we have graded the miscellaneous pages
for our digital planner. And in this lesson
we're now going to create the weekly pages. If you start your
week on a Sunday, you can follow the digital
planner guide I have provided. But in this lesson, I
will be showing you my process on how I
create my weekly page, which starts on a Monday, and the process is the same, whether it starts on a Monday or any other
day of the week. If you're not sure yet
on how to do this, make sure to watch
the process first, then try it on your own. After if your week
starts on a Sunday, you can refer to the
digital planner guide. For the weekly pages
in this guide, you can see these buttons here. This is similar to the third slide layout
we have created. So let's see, is
this for this page, for the weekly pages, I still want the title setup
of the previous pages. So I'm going to copy those elements and then paste it to our weekly page. Again, if your week
starts on a Sunday, you can use the design setup in the digital planner guide. It is also okay to not
follow these designs. The setup designs are
just suggestions. So if you have a favorite
setup you want to try, you can do that. Let me adjust the line so
that it's not in the bottom. And make sure to
change the title for this page since we are currently creating
the week one page, I'm going to change it
to August 1st to seven. Since we have buttons. Now, I am adjusting
the positions of the title in this
page and the lines. Now I'm just going to add
the daily spaces using the rounded corner
rectangles. In here. I'm going to add
three daily spaces. The easily resize
them uniformly is to select each of the
element and tap Done, and then group them, then resize them as a group. Once you have adjusted the size, you can ungroup them while the elements
are still selected, let's change the
color to white and also lower the opacity. Let's also adjust the
height of the daily spaces. Then copy and paste. I want to center this. So select the sixth daily
spaces and then move them. Then copy one of the spaces, and then paste it
under the calendar. To fill this space up, I'm going to add a
small note space, which is similar to this one. So I'm just gonna copy this
one again and then paste. And then we're going to
add the days of the week. I'm going to add a circle
by tapping the Plus icon, then shapes, then under
basic, select this circle. Using the brush icon, I'm going to change its color to white and then add
a black border. Double-tap inside the circle
so we can type in the date, then double-tap
again to highlight, and then change the
color to black. I'm also going to change the font style and
the font size. After changing the font style, it's size is still too large, so I'm going to decrease
the font size again. I'm just going to
copy and paste it to the other day spaces. Make sure to change
the dates too. Now that all the dates are added in each of the dailies spaces, Let's add grid lines
to each of the space. In the plus icon
under table at a basic one degrees the
column number to one. And then we are
going to exchange the borders, select everything, and then change the line type
to the dotted grids style, and then change the color to the third one and also
increase the weed. Let's increase the
ROS also so that the grid lines spaces
gets a little narrower. I don't want the vertical
outside borders, so let's remove them in
the brush icon under cell, that the cell border option. And in this one and change
the line type to none, do the same for the
left border line. And I want my grid lines
to be behind the dates. So tap, arrange and
then use this slider. Then copy the grid
line table and then paste it to the
other daily spaces. Make sure descender
each grid line table in the daily spaces and to also change it
arrangements so that the grid lines is
behind the dates. It looks like the dates
are a little wonky, so I'm just going
to fix those up. I also want this piece to
have a label called nodes. So let's add that too. Also, let's add a grid
lines for the space. I just copied the
grid lines from the other DD species
and resized it. You can also decrease the
numbers of rows if you like. And that is the
first weekly page of our digital planner
for the next week, the pages, you can refer to the digital planner guide
for some setup suggestions. For me, I kind of want this
setup to be my general weekly set up and I want to use this design for the
rest of the month. So I'm just going to
duplicate this slide. I will duplicate this
slide until I have five slides for my
five weekly pages. After that, Let's change
the range of days in the title of
each of the slides. For the second week, the page, it is from August
8th of August 14. Make sure to also
change the dates in each of the daily spaces. Do this in all of
the weekly pages. In this slide for the
last weekly page, since there are only
three days for that week, I'm going to keep this
three days at the top. And for the bottom part, I'm going to use this as the planning space
for next month. I have resized the
background for the space and also
the grid lines. And instead of a date, I'm just going to
add three dots. The date in the title is from
August 29th of August 31. That is the weekly pages
of our digital planner. In the next lesson,
I'm going to show you how I add the
journaling pages. So see you there.
13. The Journal and Reflection Pages: In this lesson, we
are going to create an ad journaling pages
and reflection page in our digital planner
for the journaling pages, I still want this
buttons for the page, so I'm going to use this one. The journaling page is
similar to the notes page, so I'm just going
to copy everything. Then go to the journaling
page and paste and then change the title
from notes to journal. Or you can use any
title that you want. You can add more elements like journaling
prompts and the like. If you also want that. For the journaling page, I want it to be after
every weekly pages. So let's duplicate this slide. And then tap, hold
and drag this slide and place it under the
weekly page slide. And then let's duplicate again, then tap, hold and
drag this slide. Do this as many times
as you need to. There you go. All the journaling
pages have been added. Let's double-check if
we have placed it in the correct locations.
And we did. So let's create the
reflection page there, fraction pages, almost the same journaling page, except that I will only use
this at the end of the month. So I decided that both of the pages should have
the same design setup. So I just duplicated the journaling page
and change the title. And that is the last page
of our digital planner. In the next lesson, we are
going to add the links so you can easily navigate
within the notebook. See you in the next lesson.
14. Adding the Links to the Main Pages: In this lesson, we're
going to add the links in the digital planner
so you can easily navigate within the
planner itself. So let's access the digital
planner guide again. If you check the
notes that I have added in the slide
layout number three, you can see that I have
listed all the subsections of the digital planner and
their corresponding buttons. We want the buttons here
to be our clickable links, so we can easily go to the other subsections
of the digital planner. So what we're going to do
first is to make notes. I'm just going to move
this to the right so we can see this sidebar. You can use this one or you can use the GoodNotes app or any PDF annotating API used to open the digital planner guide. What we're going to
do is to take note of the slide number for the first
page of this subsections, like for example,
the cover page, this subsection
has only one page and that is slide number one. Then the calendar is
the second slide. The weekly overview
is the third. The habit tracker is
the fourth slide. The brain dump
page as the fifth. For the journaling page, it is dependent on
which week it is for. So let's take note of
all the slide numbers. So for the first week, it is the slide number nine. For the second week, it is slide number 11. Then the next one is slide 13. This one is slide 15, and the last one
is the slide 17. For the first extra page, it is this Explore page here, and this is slide number six. And the other extra page
is slide number seven. For the reflection page, it is the last slide, which is slide number 18. Once all these are noted, let's add the links, since all of those
are for the buttons. Let's open this slide layout. The third slide layout
contains the buttons, so we will be focusing here. Let's add the links except
the journaling pages, since these changes depending on the week to add the
link that the shape. Then link, and then
select LinkedIn slide, then select the slide number
one for the second button, it must be linked to
the calendar page, which is slide number two. This one is linked to
slide number three. This one is linked to
the habit tracker, which is slide number four. This one is linked
to the fifth slide. This one, we will
add it later since it will be linked to
the journaling pages. So let's skip this first. The next button is
linked to slide six, which is the first extra page, which is my Explore page. This one is linked to
slide number seven. The last button is
further reflection page, which is linked in
the slide number 18. And I mistakenly link
this slide number eight, but I will correct it later. But if you're following along, link this to slide number 18, This is how you can add
links, the slide layout. And in the next lesson
we're going to add icons to differentiate this
circular buttons here to see you there.
15. Adding Icons: In this lesson, we
are going to add icons or labels if that
is what you prefer, so that we can differentiate
these buttons here. And to do that, tap the
Plus icon and you can check out this different
subcategories of shapes here, such as object,
nature, food, symbols. There are a lot of icons
here so you can navigate and check the other subcategories
for more choices. I like this icon in the
ornaments sub sections. I'm going to use this
for the cover page. If you cannot remember which slide these buttons
are linked to, you can always check the
digital planner guide. For this one, it is linked
to the calendar page. So I want the calendar
looking icon for this. And this icon under symbols
is perfect for this. If you accidentally
moves an element, you can always use
the undo button in the top left to
undo any changes. The next button is for
the weekly overview page. And let me see which
one I like for my weekly overview page, I like this skyline icon here is I'm going
to use this one. In this part of the process. You do not need to strictly
follow what icons I am using. If you prefer to use
labels for your buttons, you can do that too. Or if you have your own icons, you can use those if you like. Although we did not add
any link in this button, we should still add an
icon or a label for this. I used an icon from the
ornaments subcategory. For my Explore page button, I'm going to use the globe icon, which is under the
places subcategory. For this fireworks icon. I think I like this better
for the reflection beach. For the other extra page
which I use as a notes page, I'm going to use this nib icon, which is very fitting. Once you have added
all the icons, Let's go back to the
presentation mode. And as you can see here, all the slides which use
the third slide layout have the icons and the links
already added on them. And also I just noticed that
the background space for the reflection and
the journaling pages are overlapping the icons. So let's adjust them all. This is one of the
advantages of creating your planners digitally
when we make mistakes, correcting as super easy. In the next lesson,
we're going to add the remaining links for
this digital planner. So see you there.
16. Adding Links to the Calendar and Weekly Overview Pages: In this lesson, we are now
going to add the links for the calendar page and the
weekly overview page. Let's open the
digital planner guide again for the first
column of this calendar, I want this to be linked to
the weekly overview page, which I've also noted in
the digital planner guide. To add delete, tap
the Plus icon, and then add a rectangle. Resize the shape so
that it is covering the entire first
column of the table. Weekly overview page
is the third slide. So let's add that link. We don't want to see the shapes. So to make it invisible, Let's lower its opacity to 0. After that, we're going to add
links to our weekly pages. If you want to take note
of the slide number, you can again use the
digital planner guide. For the first week. This one is linked to the slide
number eight, which is the first weekly page. The second week is slide, then The next one is the 12th, then 14th, and then 16. Once all of those
are noted down, Let's go back to
the calendar page. Now let's add the shape which we will use to add the links. Let's check which
slide this is linked to in the digital planner guide. So this is linked to
slide number eight. Tap the shape, then link, and then link to
slide number eight. And then we're going to
adjust the opacity to 0. Let's copy this one and paste
it for the second week. If you're having a hard
time aligning the shape, you can temporarily
increase the opacity. Then let's copy and then paste. Then paste again. Then paste. Open the digital
planner Guide again. And this one are just copies of the first one that
we have graded. So we have to change it. And to do that, tap the
arrow icon and the shape, then link setting and then
change the slide. It is link. The second week is slide ten, and the third one is 1214. And lastly slide 16. And then double-check if the
slide numbers are correct. Now let's make this
shapes invisible by lowering down
the opacity to 0. For the overview page, I'm going to add links on
the small calendar here. Since the links are
the same as the one we have added in
the calendar page. Let's use the select
objects and select the invisible shapes with the
links and then copy them. Since we already added the
link in the calendar page, the process is now easier. I'm going to increase
the opacity of the shapes so I can
clearly see them all. Then just resize this shapes
so they perfectly fit with the small calendar in the
weekly overview page. This allows us to
access the weekly pages when we are in the
weekly overview page. And having these links
will hopefully improve our planning workflow when we're actually using the
digital planner. After resizing the shape, you can recheck the
links just to make sure again that the links we
have added are correct. Once those are confirmed, let's lower the
opacity to 0 again. And that is the links for the calendar page and the
weekly overview page. In the next lesson, we're
going to add links to the habit tracker page
of the digital planner. So see you in the next lesson.
17. Adding Links to the Habit Trackers: In this lesson, we
are now going to add the links to our habit tracker. For it, a habit tracker I wanted every calendar here is linked to the same weekly pages as what we did with the weekly
overview page. So let's just repeat
the process and copy the invisible shapes from
the weekly overview page. And then paste it here. To make the resizing easier, increase the opacity
of the shapes again, and then start resizing. Since all the habit
tracker calendar is here, we'll have the same
links per week. Let's work only on
one calendar for now. If you're having a hard
time with their ie sizing and moving the shape
because of the guides. You can go to the guides, then turn them off. You can turn on or off this guides whenever you
need them or not. Once all of those are resized, I'm going to select the shapes, copy them, and then paste Ed
for the next habit tracker. Then paste the links again here. Repeat the process until
all the calendars in the entire row of habits
attackers has the links. What we're going to do
now is select all of these shapes and
copy and paste them for the next two rows of the habit tracker to easily
select multiple elements, tap, hold, and drag
on the screen. Since elements we don't want
to copy have been selected, deselect them by
tapping on them again, then copy, and then paste. I'm going to turn off the
guides again as they are restricting me with the
repositioning of the shapes. Then paste once more for the last row of
the habit tracker. Now let's make this link shapes invisible by lowering
the opacity to 0, use the selection hack again and then de-select the
actual trackers. Then lower the opacity. Now that the links for the habit trackers are
added in the next lesson, we are going to add the remaining links for
our digital planner. See you in the next lesson.
18. Adding the Remaining Links: In this lesson, we
are now going to add the links to all our
remaining pages. The next page we're
going to work on is the brain dump page. We're going to add links
on the small calendar. So to make the process easier, let's just copy a
set of the links of one of the calendars
in the habit tracker. Select the objects than done, and then copy, then
paste it here. Let's increase the opacity of
the links so we can easily resize and reposition the
shapes for the calendar here. Since the calendars in
the Explorer page and the notes page are
of the same size as the one here in
the brain dump page. I'll just be copying
the invisible shapes and then pasting them
on the two pages. The last remaining
links we need to add now are the links in
the weekly pages. Let's work on those links. We need to add R4, the journaling pages, buttons, and links in the
small calendar here, Let's just space the
shapes for that calendar. I still have it copied
from the last step, so just paste it here. But if you haven't,
you can copy it. Again. You can increase the opacity of the
shapes who we can resize and reposition the
shapes easier and faster. After resizing and
repositioning, you can select the objects
again and then lowered opacity to turn them invisible and
then copy the objects. Let's work on the calendar is
in the weekly pages first, since we already
copied the links from the first weekly page, let's just paste it to
the other weekly pages. Let's also add the
calendar links to the journaling pages so we can access any of the weekly pages when
we are journaling. Since the calendar's in
the weekly pages and the journaling pages are not of the same size and position. I have increased the opacity of the shapes again and reposition them to fit the calendar here
in the journaling pages. I'm only going to
do this in one of the journaling pages and
then just copy the correctly positioned and
resize shape links and paste it in the
other journaling pages. To copy this shapes tab
and then select objects, then select the
invisible shapes, then tap Done, then copy. Then go to the other
journaling pages and paste them there. Also, don't forget the base
set in the reflection page. Now let's work on the links and buttons for the journaling page. Since the ship is created
in the slide layout, we can not really access this shape in the
presentation mode. So let's add a similar
shape here and placed it on top of the button. Since the reflection page
has no specific weekly page, I'm going to use this button to access the cover page instead. So tap on the shape, select link, linked
to slide number one. Then let's change the
opacity of the shape, the 0 to make it invisible. Then tap and then copy. Now let's go back to
the first big leap page and paste it here. Tap on the shape
than links setting. Then select link the slide
and change it to nine, since it is the journaling
page for this week. For the journaling page, I want that when I
tap this button, I want it to go back
to my weekly page. So tap on the screen and
then paste this shape, then tap on the shape
that link setting. Then linked to slide eight. The second weekly page. This button should be
linked to slide number 11, which is the journaling
page for week two. And then in the journaling page, this button should be
linked to the slide. The third weekly page, the journaling button is
linked to slide number 13. In the journaling page. This button is linked
to slide number 12. Let's repeat the process to
the fourth weekly page again, and this is linked
to slide number 15. For the journaling page. This button is
linked to slide 14. For the last weekly page. This button is linked
to slide number 17. For the journaling page
for the last week, this button is
linked to slide 16. And before I forget, I need to fix the button for
the reflection page first, that was in the slide layouts. So access the slide layout
by tapping anywhere in the screen and then
select Edit slide layout, tap on the button,
then link setting, then change the link to
slide 18 instead of eight. Now that all the
links are already added and fixed, in
the next lesson, we're going to export
the digital planner we have created. See you there.
19. Exporting the Digital Planner: In this lesson, we
are now going to export your digital planner. To do that, tap the
three button icon, then tap Export, then
export it as a PDF file. In this window, tap Export
tab saved the files. If you want to save your digital
planner in your folders, you can also rename your digital planner
before saving it. And here is my digital
planner inside my files. Let me show you another way. If you want directly import your digital planner
to GoodNotes, tap Export in the
three dots icon. Then select the Open
in GoodNotes option. Then rename this. Then import as a new document. While you are here, you
can also recheck if all the links that we
have added are correct.
20. You are the BEST!: You just finished your
first pass of the class. Good job. Let me know in the discussion below that you just finished your first pass and
it's now going to create your own digital planner. Then go back and rewatch
