What I’m trying to do
Have a tag in a property in the front-matter (which is not the tags
property)
I have a status
property in the front-matter which holds the current status of an order I made, currently it is either “Shipped” or “Received”, but I would like those to be tags instead: “#Shipping” or “#Received”
Things I have tried
I searched for “tag in properties”/“tag in frontmatter”/similar, in both this forum, DuckDuckGo, and in community plugins, but the results all talk about the tags
property
Here is a minimized example of the situation
---
status: "#Received"
---
`=this.status`
status2:: #Received2
In the front matter, it only displays as text, not as a tag
The inline dataview does show up as a tag
However neither of the above adds the tag to the file, so searching for tag:#Received
does not list this file
Having the property inline does work, #Received2
is clickable and searchable
This feels like an unexpected workaround, and it means I have to put the status outside of the front-matter, where all other data about the shipment resides
