With this I built around 1000 “#Q” questions (1 note per theme with several questions within that note) and some hundreds “#review”.
Now that I discovered the plugin Spaced Repetions I’m trying to adapt my “archaic” system to the plugin and I managed to figure out how to do it:
The problem is, I’d have to manually update all the questionsby adding a “??” between the question and the answers (as in the above printscreen). Is there a way to automate that? Or another plugin that better suits my archaic system?
I don’t think there’s a way in core Obsidian. You could use the Regex Find/Replace Community plugin to find (\?|#review)$ and replace it with \1\n??. (In more readable terms: “Find ? or #review at the end of a line and replace it with itself followed by a newline and then ??.”)
With that plugin you’ll have to do this once for each note. There’s a plugin now that does global search and replace, but I haven’t tried it and don’t know if it supports regular expressions. You could also use an external text editor.
This works perfectly, even though I have to repeat this for every note.
I couldn’t get the plugin “global search and replace” to work with regular expressions though, I’ll contact the developer.
Thanks for the help
If the plugin description doesn’t mention them, it probably doesn’t support them.
It’s too bad Regex Find/Replace doesn’t have the same interface as the core replace feature, which stays open at the top and keeps your terms as you move between files.
