Excluding frontmatter metadata #9

Open AW2307 opened 3 months ago

AW2307 commented 3 months ago

Hi,

I would like to request an option within Canvas2Document, which would allow users to exclude frontmatter metadata from the exported document.

Right now the problem is that, if markdown documents with YAML frontmatter tags were embedded within the canvas, then these documents' text will be added "as-is" to the exported document.

However, due to the concatenation, Obsidian will display all metadata within the document. For increased readibility, it would be great if metadata could be removed automatically.

Thanks for considering and keep up the great work!

sorry for late answer, holiday season...

This is an absolutely important requirement. I didn't immediately notice it, as I hardly ever use frontmatter data myself. Thanks, it will be in the next release!
