Name of Day in Daily note created #182

Open danraymond opened 3 years ago

It would be nice that the daily note created when you click on the calendar included the day name. For example currently a new note is labelled YYYY-MM-DD . Could it also be ddd YYYY-MM-DD so "Friday 2021-05-23" for example

It is possible to do so in Calendar.

Configuring Daily Notes

Syntax you specified would look like this: dddd YYYY-MM-DD. For more syntax, refer to format reference. Reload Obsidian to see effect.

Be aware that your other days won't be visible on Calendar anymore, as they will have old syntax.

Aliases

Non-breaking way is to add aliases, using templates.

---
alias: ["{{date:dddd YYYY-MM-DD}}"]
---

It will look like this, you'll be able to link notes using your alias. Refer to Obsidian Help to know more about Aliases.
