Problem Background
- A Notion database has Sub-items mode enabled
- Every time the page is refreshed, the sub-items collapse, requiring you to manually expand them each time you view the page

Solution
Add a filter condition with the criteria "Parent item: Is not empty"

This way, even after refreshing the page, all sub-items will remain expanded. If you also want to learn how to calculate the time range of sub-items, check out this tutorial on calculating sub-item time ranges:
