WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND The user could define a formula by which, when the template is used to create an object, dynamic data is inserted into either the object itself or its relation(s). HOW COULD IT BE DONE Shortcode or markdown-related user input is a basic method. Obsidian uses this, for example,…

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND The ability to add a token that represents the current date/time in the title of a template. When a new object is created, the token would be replaced with the current date. HOW COULD IT BE DONE Add “My Notes for {{Now}}” as the first line in a template. When a new object is…

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND I would like to use the [@] operator in the names of objects, to be able to set their name automatically upon creation through a template. HOW COULD IT BE DONE Just like you can use the [@] in a normal text block to set, for example, ‘@today’ or ‘@tomorrow’, I would like to se…

It would be cool to automate beyond just the object name. For example, I have templates where there is a set that is filtered to only objects that have the object in a relation (eg. Book A has a set with only “Quote” objects from Book A), so it would be cool automate that (in this case, have a filt…

Just expanding on this, I think basic templating variables like: <% yesterday %> <% today %> <% tomorrow %> <% current_month %> <% current_year %> <% current_day_name %> But also it would be awesome to target objects or properties: <% title %> <% current_counter_value %> Or would being able to…

It would be helpful if Templates support macros, like date. When I create a journal entry, I would like to title of the journal entry to be the creation date. Right now, I am typing in the date as the title right after it is created. It could be something like {date} in the template, or {date:YYYY-M…
