SImple syntax not displaying values correctly
paulsybrandy opened this issue · 3 comments
Plugin information (please complete the following information):
- OS: Windows 11 Pro build 22635.4000
- Templater version: 2.4.1
- Obsidian version: 1.6.7
- Templater settings: Template folder location: "Templates/",
Describe the bug
As several videos show, using <% tp.date.tomorrow("Do MMMM YYYY") %> under alias (or aliases) sets up newly created daily notes with a date for tomorrow. In combination, using the following at the top of the template, will allow for the specified date to be shows along with a backlink to the previous daily note and the next day's daily note.
<% tp.date.tomorrow("dddd Do MMMM YYYY") %><< [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD") %>]] | [[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD", 2) %>]] >>
However, all that is shown is the syntax I used as opposed to the values (dates) that I was calling for.
I have tried with a simple "creation date" as well but the corresponding values doesn't display what it should, just the syntax I typed in to being with. I am not sure how this got broken but first time I attempted to use this plugin and this is what resulted.
Expected behavior
The date of the daily note should be shown with a link to the previous and next daily notes underneath it.
Additional context
Not sure what other information to include off the top of my head but if something is needed, I would be happy to provide it, so please ask. Thanks.
There may be some confusion around how Templater works.
Templater can either be triggered with a Templater:
command from the command palette, or by having "Trigger Templater on new file creation" turned on and creating a file with Templater code in it (daily notes template, etc).
Templater doesn't do anything automatically, it must be triggered.
Closing due to no response.
