Append to note formatting with {content}

[mikejongbloet]

Hello!

Love this - thanks so much for creating and publishing your Raycast commands.

I saw in the tooltip the variable {content} which I've tried to use in my append template as I want the content to be wrapped by square brackets: * <small>**[{hour}:{minute}]**</small>[💭 Thought:: {content}]

When I capture a note it's capturing like this:

Essentially the variable isn't being replaced and the contents are instead being appended to the end, rather than being wrapped in the square bracket.

Thank you for reporting this issue, I will have a look at this. What command were you using?

It was a while back but I'm fairly sure it was "Append to Daily Note".

Cheers.

Adding to this - I'm experiencing the same problem.

I have the template for Append to Daily Note: | {hour}:{minute} | {content} | It is intended to add a row to my "log" table at the bottom of my daily note.

When I use the template this way, typing "this is a test" into Raycast- the output in Obsidian is: "| 09:35 | {content} |this is a test"

For a workaround, I just use | {hour}:{minute} | as the template and add the final "|" character manually.

Have a PR to fix this. if {content} is found in the template it will replace it there rather than append it to the end.

Will PR to the main Raycast repo in a bit and they usually merge these within a few days
