This is exactly what I needed. Like, 100%. Thank you very much, amazing that I was hooked like 90% of the video constantly.

[@MatthewHinton]

Very nice, I really liked the focus on using note templates.

Hi Ben - love the videos. I too am getting a Template error etc when trying to use your boilerplate code....any suggestions ?? thanks !

[@BenCodeZen]

Hey Joel! Sorry for the delay in responding to this. Are you still seeing errors with this? Happy to help debug!

[@JacksonMilesSpindle]

thank you! been trying to figure out how to do this with templater for so long

[@BenCodeZen]

You're welcome!

[@JacksonMilesSpindle]

loving this content glad I stumbled on your channel. Do you have any videos going into tips/features of the tag wrangler plugin?

[@BenCodeZen]

Not yet! But I'm happy to add that to the backlog!

[@JacksonMilesSpindle]

@@BenCodeZen thank you thatd be awesome!

[@KoenBunders]

Hi Ben, thanks. I am getting this error: VM116:82 Templater Error: Template parsing error, aborting. Destination file already exists! following the await tp.file.move("/people/" + title) from the Base template. The result is two identical files. One in / (root), the other in /people/ Any idea how to fix this?

[@BenCodeZen]

Oof. I've run into this before. I'll add it to my list of questions that I'll answer for the next video!

[@zj2780]

Thanks for the tuts and boilerplate Ben, but I have a problem when I try to create a new note. (I'm using your obsidian boilerplate from Github) I'm getting this error: Templater Error: File [[Frontmatter (section template)]] doesn't exist Do you have any advice on how to fix this error?

[@BenCodeZen]

Definitely! Most likely one of the files isn't wired up correctly. I'd do a search for [[Frontmatter (section template)]] to figure out where this is being called and then update it to the correct frontmatter file. I'll double-check the boilerplate to make sure it's good to go there, but hope that helps to show how I'd debug it!

Way too confused. Some people can't teach.
