Keyboard shortcuts for next daily note doesn't take effect

Setting a shortcut for yesterday’s or tomorrow’s daily note never takes effect making it impossible to open such a note. Using the same shortcut for another action works though flawlessly (to rule out invalid shortcut)

There’s one sort of related topic I believe, but it’s two years old and seems to be abandoned. This though seems to be if the file is not created then the shortcut doesn’t create one, but I’ve just tested and even if it does exist, it still doesn’t get opened with a shortcut.

Steps to reproduce

  1. set shortcut for next or previous daily note - e.g. ctrl + u
  2. use the shortcut for it to not work, not open anything
  3. delete that shortcut and use it on another action for it to work.

Additional information

The link you posted is going to the troubleshooting guide, not an older topic.

Can you show a screenshot of your settings, or show your template for your daily note format?

Seeing the Daily notes settings screen may help here, as rigmarole mentioned.

What’s the folder structure of your Daily notes? It could be this issue:

Here’s my daily notes setup

@ariehen I think that’s exactly it. It never came up in my search though

The original link should have been this one: Create next daily note on "open next daily note"

Though, i tried creating the next and previous files and they still don’t get opened with the shortcuts set.

Even with periodic notes, it still doesn’t create the next day’s file so something is certainly funky.
