Sorry if this is really obvious - I did try quite a bit to find the answer but alas, I could not find it - at least not in a format that I understood. And I’m soooo close to making it work! I think I’m missing something really obvious.
What I’m trying to do
I’m trying to set up a QuickAdd Capture to change the YAML in my daily note. Specifically, to update the date & time of a specific property.
Things I have tried
I have most parts of it all set up:
- It’s capturing to my daily note (06 Journal/Daily Notes/{{date}}.md)
- It’s inserting the correctly formatted date and time ({{DATE:YYYY-MM-DD[T]HH:mm}})
- It’s inserting after the correct text: test_time:
BUT - it’s adding a line break, so the date & time is popping up on a whole new line as if it’s a new property instead of filling in the “test_time” property.
So my questions become:
- Is there a specific way to capture to existing YAML that I’m completely missing?
- Is there a way to capture without adding that linebreak?
Thank you!!!
