Create Multiple Notes

What I’m trying to do

I am trying to find a process for creating multiple notes on a regular basis. Like a regular progression of meetings. There will be 13 meetings, one each week with a common template for each. Is there a way to batch create these notes with progressive dates, moving the date forward for each note by 1 week?

Things I have tried

Searched everywhere to no avail.

Hi. Have you tried AI like ChatGPT? It can generate list of dates and you can then use these to generate md‑files.

That is a good idea. Lot of friction though. I will keep it in mind

Hi,

It’s not a perfect solution but you might want to take a look at the templater plugin. It allows for very rich templates (you can even run javascript code to for exemple access the note title).

good luck
