Can dataview run on NAS?

[filmgal]

I created an Obsidian vault on my NAS and the dataview + dataviewjs pages just display the code rather than the results. Is it a NAS thing?

FIY I need it to be on the NAS (or maybe not?). It is a mirrored copy of the film folders from my local vault so that my husband can just browse our film collection. I put Obsidian and dataview (no other plugins) on his laptop, mapped to the NAS drive, and created his vault there.

As long as obsidian is installed as a plugin in the vault, it should work fine. Does it work if you create a simple inline rendered field like = this.file.name?

I found the culprit (I think). Changes were never beings saved: I installed dataview plugin, enabled it, tried something and it would be disabled. Figured out that everything on the NAS as set to read-only. I changed that and it did the trick.

Good you hear you fixed it.
