I generally check it off and move it to an entry in the ā€œaccomplishmentsā€ section of the relevant daily note.

#10

Can you please elaborate about the date links? Does your template literally say [[{{Yesterday}}|<]] | {{tp_date}} | [[{{Tomorrow}}|>]] or are those placemarkers? I have the Calendar plugin but Iā€™m not understanding how to make this work automatically.

Thanks!

#11

Yeah, I copy and pasted directly from my vaultā€™s daily notes template file. Is it not working for you? I admit I havenā€™t used that format since Obsidian mobileā€™s sidebar plugin thing got tweaked to make the calendar come up more easily.

I figured out how to do it using Templater.

My code is now:

### [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD", -1, tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD") %>|ā¬…]] <% tp.file.title %> [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD", 1, tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD") %>|āž”]]

# <% tp.date.now("dddd, MMMM Do, YYYY", 0, tp.file.title, "YYYY-MM-DD") %>

This produces this when rendered:

with the links working correctly.

Can you expand a bit on this please? Do you have a formatting template set up or do you just add this daily template?

I need to do this for weekly notes. If you are offering :slight_smile: This is a great idea!

#15

I added this to the daily template but also enabled the Trigger Templater on new file creation option in the Templater settings.

This way the info is added dynamically when I create the new note.

I prefer to put things in Kanban. Something like this. Easy and straight forward.

I didnā€™t know Obsidian could do that. Is that a plugin youā€™re using?

yeah, using kanban third-party plugin. You go to the community plugin section. Search for ā€œkanbanā€. You will find the plugin.

Awesome! Iā€™m just starting a new semester, so Iā€™ll give that a try. Any tips you have or quirks/oddities I should be aware of?

#20

I copied this from @ryanjamurphy and it works well, just pasted it into my daily notes template:

ā† [[{{date-1d:YYYYMMDD}}]] [[{{date+1d:YYYYMMDD}}]] ā†’

Nice. Do you manually replace the YYYYMMDD part with the appropriate dates on each note, or are you able to automate that somehow?

I use a different approach now dude, but Iā€™m pretty sure it populates if you have a few of the correct plugins. Maybe templater? Not sure, Iā€™m green on this stuff :slight_smile:

Ah, ok. Iā€™ll poke around a bit and see if I can get it working. Thanks!

#24

Templater lets you insert the correct previous/next dates for future days.

I think core now does yesterday and today. Not sure if thatā€™s also for future days.

Hi @EleanorKonik , Thank you for these. Some of your ideas have completely changed the way I think! Very grateful.

I was playing around the CLI javascript to collate text from a specific heading in daily notes. And ran into multiple errors. I am a noob when it comes to any programming, so just thought Iā€™d check if the script youā€™re using still works for you. Also, I know you said you might do a plugin at some point. Is this still on teh cards? Thank you again.

GitHub - eleanorkonik/concatenate: A plugin for Obsidian.md to allow you to put the contents of sections together in one file should work!

Eleanor, thanks for sharing your expertise!

Iā€™ve implemented this snippets to link todayā€™s note to yesterday and tomorrow, it works well when linking to an already created note, for how I use these links typically this is the ā€œyesterdayā€ note. However when I click on ā€œtomorrowā€ hence creating the new note, this doesnā€™t come with the expected template associated for daily note.

I have had this issue for so long that I now feel motivated to solve it :slight_smile: hope you can share some directions! thanks :pray:
