[Feature Request] Automatically create new file with Unique note creator core plugin and link alias in original note #37

Closed Trikzon closed 2 years ago

Trikzon commented 2 years ago

When creating notes in Obsidian, it's common to create links to notes that haven't been created yet.

These links can be clicked on to create a note with the file name of the link.

However, it would be nice if clicking on a link to a note that hasn't been created would instead create a file using the Unique note creator core plugin, with the metadata set to have the correct front matter title, and the link having an alias of the title.

Example

Clicking on the following link to a not yet created file: [[Test Note]]

would create the following file: 202207250239.md

with the following contents (that should be customizable via a template):

---
title: 'Test Note'
---

and the link clicked on should become [[202207250239|Test Note]].

Also, this feature would make the most sense if #18 is added.

Hi! Have you tried to use Templater. I think it can help you to realize what you want to.

Closing because unnecessary.
