My Daily Notes are in

000 - Landing Page. Inbox. KO. Meta/Storage/Periodic Notes/Daily format is YYYY/MM. MMMM/YYYY-MM-DD

the plugin says to put the daily note setting into the plugin settings with square brackets.

I've done YYYY[/]MM[. ]MMMM[/]YYYY[-]MM[-]DD

and got an error about correct format.

So I did YYYY[/]MM. MMMM[/]YYYY-MM-DD and got the same error.

So then I did [/000 - Landing Page. Inbox. KO. Meta/Storage/Periodic Notes/Daily/]YYYY[/]MM[. ]MMMM[/]YYYY[-]MM[-]DD

and got the same error

So then I did [000 - Landing Page. Inbox. KO. Meta/Storage/Periodic Notes/Daily/]YYYY[/]MM[. ]MMMM[/]YYYY[-]MM[-]DD

The last one worked. I recommend changing the description so that people know to include the filepath PLUS the day code. You could also just look up that setting like the periodic notes plugin does on first use.
