Alfred opening but not adding to the journal daily note #25

Open sharetocreate opened 1 year ago

sharetocreate commented 1 year ago

Hi, thank you for making this

I seem to have everything setup correctly but if i try and add to or append a daily note - it says its opened the note but the text is not added to it.

tried every config i can think of and watched the 2 tutorials i could find but no success. - attached a couple of screenshots of before and after command - can anyone help identify the issue?

I had the same problem but worked out now. You can try toggle the debugging mode on the workflow (the button close to configuration). When you test adding notes, the debugger window will show the errors. Usually, it is the daily_folder problem. I guess in your case, it should be something like Daily/2022/December instead of Daily

Hello! I love this workflow. But I'm also having the same problem. I tried running the debugger, and it looks like it's trying to write to a really strange path, but I'm not sure how to fix it. The debugger says:

"ERROR: Obsidian Utilities[Write Text File] Unable to write file '/Users/MyNameRedacted/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Workflow Data/com.senhortavares.obsidian/OneDrive/Documents/Wunderkammern/01 Daily Notes/2024-01-03.md' as parent folder does not exist"

OneDrive/Documents/Wunderkammern/01 Daily Notes/2024-01-03.md is the correct path for my daily note, and the one that I have listed in the workflow variables, but I'm not sure where the rest of that weird path is coming from. Any thoughts? Thanks so much!
