FR: Support other folder naming formats #2

Open TroubleDog54 opened 6 months ago

TroubleDog54 commented 6 months ago

First off, thanks for this plugin! I can see this being very useful for organising my periodic notes :)

In my Vault, I have monthly folders named after the months instead of sequential month numbers, e.g. "May 2024" instead of "2024-05". Would it be possible to implement support for recognising these as valid folders instead of ignoring them and creating a numbered hierarchy?

Additionally, could this be extended to support notes? e.g. as shown in the images I uploaded, using "May 2024" as a monthly note filename instead of "2024-05" or "20-05-2024" instead of "2024-05-20".

@TroubleDog54 I could see a custom date/time format setting being valuable to some users. The plugin is intentionally opinionated about the datetime format of YYYY-MM-DD since that format sorts chronologically, but I'd be open to a PR for a datetime format setting. Or if enough users want this feature I'll see what I can do to add it
