What I’m trying to do
I take notes on companies (Note Template). Sometimes I’ll take a note on a company I’ve never met before, in which case I want to automatically create a Company Page (Company Template).
My Note Template.md is quite simple:
Entity:: Company1
Thoughts
Notes
Into this template, I’ve added code, mostly taken from Trying to create a button that runs a specific templater template - #9 by holroy (thank you holroy !)
<%*
const baseFolder = app.vault.getAbstractFileByPath(“Notes”)
const filenameAndFolder = ${tp.date.now("YYYY")}/+
Meeting--${tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD--HH-mm")}
const template = tp.file.find_tfile(“CompanyTemplate”)
await tp.file.create_new(template, filenameAndFolder, false, baseFolder)
%>
This works perfectly in creating a note that is stored in the appropriate folder with the appropriate name.
QUESTION: How can I adjust my code to allow ‘Company1’ to port into the newly created file? Specifically, I’d like to include Company1 into the new file’s (Company Note’s) title [In other words, adjust the const filenameAndFolder line of code].
Things I have tried
I’ve scoured this forum for hours, and have tried numerous ways of including the Entity variable, including ${Entity}, <% Entity %, etc…I’m not a coder so I suspect the fix is relatively easy. Thank you !
