How to overwrite default template of quick note in v2

General

hi, as suggest in the title. Templates in std are now read only and we cant edit them directly. Even when we could it was not a good practice. I wonder if we have already a way to define our own template that overwrites the template in std?

I might be missing something here, but simply adding this to a new page should override the Quick Note template. The priority attribute does the trick:

---
command: Quick Note
key: "Alt-Shift-n"
suggestedName: "Inbox/${os.date('%Y-%m-%d/%H-%M-%S')}"
confirmName: false
tags: meta/template/page
priority: 9

Thanks Lochel. BTW I was always understanding the priority as lower number loads earlier and everything will be loaded eventually, so if you were to overwrite something you want your new template to have number on priority. But that is not the correct understanding right?

Yes, higher priority means it is loaded first. So overwriting things is achieved by lower priority. You can also skip the priority attribute altogether. Default is 0.
