Steps to reproduce
- In few notes of the sandbox vault, add a
datetype of key and a value to each one- I chose the to add the dates:
2025-05-26inStart Here2025-05-27inPlugins make Obsidian special for you2025-05-28inVault is just a local folder
- I chose the to add the dates:
- Create a
.basefile, add the brand newdateproperty to the base to display it - Add a filter through the GUI such as:
where date is on or after 2025-05-26- Note: it doesn’t seem to matter if the filter is under
All viewsorThis view
- Try to edit one of the dates of the
dateproperty in the now filtered view/base by clicking on its “day” part- E.g.: Editing the date
2025-05-28into2025-05-29
- E.g.: Editing the date
→ Result: I’m not able to fully edit the date like I would like to do, as I can only type the 2 of 29 but not the 9 before the value is saved
.
I think this also happens for the “other parts” of the date.
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide?
Yes, this has been reproduced in the Sandbox vault ![]()
Expected result
I was expecting the base to let me fully edit the value before saving it
…
Actual result
When trying to edit the day part of the date (e.g. 28 of 2025-05-28), I only have the opportunity to type 2 before the value is saved… but not the 9.
So, instead of the date being edited as 2025-05-29 it’s actually saved as 2025-05-02 which is then automatically discarded by the filter of the base (as the 2025-05-02 falls before 2025-05-26) ![]()

Additional information
This is the initial setup I’m using:
The content of the .base file after setting up the base through the GUI:
filters:
and:
- dateOnOrAfter(property.date, "2025-05-26")
views:
- type: table
name: Table
order:
- file.name
- date
sort:
- column: property.date
direction: ASC
And this is what I get when trying to modify the date 2025-05-28 into 2025-05-29 :

A workaround, in this case (I guess
), would be to remove the filter → Edit the desired value → Re-filter the base/view … But that’s a lot of manipulation just to edit the value of a date ![]()
I’m sorry if this is already a know issue or has been reported
…
I tried to look for something similar and I could have missed it ![]()
