Eleanor, thanks for sharing your expertise!
I’ve implemented this snippets to link today’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 “yesterday” note. However when I click on “tomorrow” hence creating the new note, this doesn’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 
hope you can share some directions! thanks
