Things I have tried
I am totally a greenhorn refugee from Microsoft, trying to switch to Obsidian. I installed it and the plugins I think I will need for a VERY wide range of subjects and topics. Now when I open Obsidian, I get 9 error messages, all of which I have no idea what they mean.
-Breadcrumb cache not installed yet ; templater folder must be set [where and how?]; failed to load plugin obsidian hotkeys for templater [don’t plan on setting any soon]; Failed to initialize alx folder - notes folder-note-core plugin not enabled [what the heck is “alx”?]; Your map of content couldn’t be created {and that is my main interest at this point]; Make sure your Central Note path ‘Central Note.md’ is correct. You can change this path in the Settings. [no such file on my system]. For a newbie, this is terrifying. I am in the process of beginning to make several thousand notes across about a dozen related subjects, and Obsidian is the only program that promises to deliver on this size and complexity. I need for this thing to work, preferably out of the box by point-and-click.
