Hi Nicole, I tried using all these plugins and still don't have the command palette as it shows for you. I am trying to create a note in a specific folder, kickstarter/project for example. Also, it takes quiet some time for the plugins to load and removed many of them for faster loading but still feels buggy and hangs if there is a folder with images that I am browsing. Would you have a demo vault or how you can create files in folders from the command palette itself?
@nicolevdh2 жыл бұрын
Hey, sorry for the delay! It's not the Command Palette that you want-- it is the Quick Switcher, which is a core plugin that you'll need to enable in your settings. I do have a demo vault that is available for Patreon members. Perhaps you would consider ending your membership on KZbin and joining the Patreon instead? KZbin unfortunately does not let me give as much to members since there is no central place that I can post things here.

I really appreciate sharing your Data Model . I think I've finally got it straight in my mind how I want to organize my Obsidian usage to be optimized for me. That is, Capture what I need/want to remember or keep and Retrieve/Find it when I want it later. I REALLY appreciate showing the model of your metadata. That is something I really need. I sort of had an epiphany about using metadata to both automate and organize things from Josh Plunket's video on using the JSON/CSV importer. While I can find things based on folders and tags, I'm limited on how easily I can just build a query to put things on one page. I re-watched this video this morning (I first watched it a few days ago and couldn't remember which video you showed the data model, but I took a screenshot that showed the name of the video. lol) I then took notes on my re-watch so I don't have to rely on memory and a few screenshots. There's just so many cool things you can do with Obdisian that I get lost checking them all out insread of implementing one at a time. In re-watching I had a realization that this is just using Dataview queries to make a MOC page without manually creating every link. I really like how the Templater, QuickAdd, and Buttons plugins really leverage this. I've got a lot of notes in other text formats that I will be able to find and use the information more efficiently than my current process that worked great in the 90's but the tool I use (NoteTab) has not kept up with the times. Nearly no text highlighting and development has ceased. I learned its custom scripting language that doesn't transfer to other software, so I'm leveraging that knowledge to get the text in a useful format with helpful metadata in *.md files so I can use it in Obsidian. I really leveraged that tool nearly 25 years ago to be quick and efficient at my job, but I don't do as much of the things I originally used it for. Obsidian for tracking information is so much simpler and more customizable than OneNote, which I like some of it, but the data is locked up in Microsoft's proprietary format. Since Obsidian is so easy and portable, I plan to move out my OneNote data once I solve the NoteTab data transformation/transfer. I'm even more glad that I backed your Patreon a few days ago. Thanks for sharing such helpful and relevant information to get the most out of Obsidian!

I set up database folder plugin for my private todo management (using normal notes as todo's). Adding new notes is no problem for me, i just enter the "filename" of the new note and then hit "+". I also did not notice any performance issues yet. What I really like about database folder plugin for my use case is the ability to enter data into the database like in MS Excel (might also be like in Notion, I do not know Notion though). You did not mention that in the video. For example: I do not have to click on each note to enter a due date in the due-date-yaml property there, but can enter this directly into the database in the database spreadsheet view, one entry after the other (without individually clicking on each entry). This is not possible in the dataview plugin as far as I know.

@krakor92 Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure why she did it for the date in this case, but the %% section is used to overcome an inherent limitation of Obsidian's frontmatter (the --- section) : Basically, all the [[links]] you put in the frontmatter won't have their path updated if you decide to rename them or move them somewhere else in your vault. This is where the %% are useful, they allow you to set link metadata directly in the text of your note and they get hidden when you switch to read mode (note that they use double colon notation :: because they are dataview property rather than frontmatter property since the latter is only available in the frontmatter section).
