Things I have tried
Every combination of yaml and hashtags:
---
tags:
- #zettlekasten/fleeting_notes
---```
tags:
- zettlekasten
- fleeting_notes
### What I'm trying to do
Get my frontmatter tags to show up in the tag pane. However none of the above items work. This does:
tags:
- #zettlekasten /fleeting_notes
However, it doesn't have the starting triple dash, so obsidian doesn't recognize it as front matter.
Is there something I'm missing?

Don’t use #
in the frontmatter for tags. Also, frontmatter is required for the first content in a note with ---
surrounding the content.
Example:
---
tags:
- zettlekasten/fleeting_notes
---

The #
in YAML marks everything after it as a comment.
It was a combination of using tabs instead of spaces, and slightly invalid custom yml I’d included above that line that caused the issue. @jwl comment helped me figure it out.
Thank you, I was making the same mistakes as OP and this comment helped me out.
