What I’m trying to do
Obsidian 1.10.6 Daily Notes Editor 1.1.0 existing open tab should:
(don’t confuse Daily Notes Editor Community plugin (has a scroll down of older daily notes) with Daily notes Obsidian Core plugin (doesn’t have the scroll down of older daily notes))
-
automatically open with the option for a new day entry (when the day is a new day)
screenshot 1 point 1: Obsidian Daily Notes Editor tab open from previous session
screenshot 1 point 2: Location where automatic text should show: Create a daily note for today
screenshot 1 point 3: Obsidian Files Ribbon where I manually tapped Open Daily Notes Editor
screenshot 1 point 4: Obsidian Daily Notes Editor opened a new tab, rather than using the existing Daily Notes Editor tab, causing a job to manually close a duplicate Daily Notes Editor tab.
-
- the view would show text: Create a daily note for today
screenshot 2 shows a new Obsidian Daily Notes Editor tab with:
correct text: Create a daily note for today
incorrect action: after manually opening (shouldn’t need this action)
correct action: automatically open previously open Daily Notes Editor with text: Create a daily note for today
- the view would show text: Create a daily note for today
-
open to a new correct day
screenshot 3 point 1 shows correct date
screenshot 3 point 2 shows no Create a daily note for today (probably text no longer needed as tapping Create a daily note for today is a necessary action so the code knows to activate a new date header? -
Editing Toolbar 3.1.18 should appear
screenshot 3 point 2 incorrectly shows no Editing Toolbar in the usual location under the date, as shown in screenshot 4
-
Editing Toolbar 3.1.18 should appear under top line text: Daily Notes, rather than under the date. Appearing under the date causes bugs where the Editing Toolbar appears sporadically under lower down older date headers.
screenshot 4 shows currently coded plugin with location of Editing Toolbar
Things I have tried
Obsidian → Vault → Files →- Obsidian → Vault → Files → Daily Notes tab from previous session → tap around page to activate something, but no option to Create a daily note for today
- Obsidian → Vault → Files → left ribbon → tap Open Daily Note Editor → Obsidian 2nd Daily Notes tab opens (1st existing Daily Notes tab is the error) → Create a daily note for today → tap to activate the cursor for typing.
Error: the existing Daily Notes Editor tab from the previous session isn’t automatically showing text: Create a daily note for today. - Internet search: obsidian daily note editor new date
- Obsidian forum search: obsidian daily note editor new date
