Multiline Cards

Multiline cards allow you to include a list of blocks on the back of a card with parent block acting as the question.

Basic Multiline Card

The easiest way to make a multiline card is to add the #card tag to a block:

• SQL commands can be divided into: #card
  • Data Definition Language
  • Data Manipulation Language
  • Data Control Language

This produces card with front side showing question and back side showing the children blocks.

Front	Back
⛶	⛶

Incremental Cards

A multiline card can be marked as incremental by adding #incremental to multiline card block:

• SQL commands can be divided into: #card #incremental
  • Data Definition Language
  • Data Manipulation Language
  • Data Control Language

This will make the plugin create separate cards for each of the children blocks:

Front	Back
⛶	⛶
⛶	⛶
...	...

Card Direction

Testing direction of multiline cards can be controlled using direction tags: #forward, #reversed, #bidirectional.

For example, when adding #reversed tag in a multiline card block, you'll see all the child blocks and be asked remember the parent block.

• SQL commands can be divided into: #card #reversed
  • Data Definition Language
  • Data Manipulation Language
  • Data Control Language

Front	Back
⛶	⛶

Tips

• Use #flashcard to skip Logseq's native flashcard formatting
• Use direction:: property with ->, <-, or <-> as an alternative to tags
• Combine with #depth-n to limit child block depth
• Add extra:: for mnemonics (see Extra Details & Hints)
