New user here, just started playing around and liking a lot of what I see. I'm following Journaling to set up a daily note mechanism, and for the most part I got it working as documented.
However, the #journal page tag doesn't seem to get copied from the template to the new note. I've done some searching and it seems there are some internal tags, like #journal, that don't get copied. But without the tag the query as documented doesn't find the journal pages (though it finds the template page just fine).
Is the documentation out of date or inaccurate? Or am I misunderstanding something? Or is there something other than that guide I should be using?
i also had some issues a while back with a #tag as the first element in a template. so i just stopped using tag in the template altogether, i either add them manually after creation or don't use them. i know this is not exactly the solution you expected.
as a matter of fact, instead of using a guide, i could recommend you to use some of my beginner friendly libraries for Daily Journaling. They're not perfect either, but it may help you to view, organise and write your daily journals in a more interactive way:
one of them is Journal Explorer - It scans your space for pages matching your journal path pattern, renders them as richly styled tiles (calendar icon + title/snippet + image thumbnail), and supports infinite lazy scrolling, a live sticky date-context header, filtering, sorting, and a full settings panel - all without leaving your workspace.
or the latest Floating Journal Calendar - is a lightweight, interactive navigation tool for SilverBullet. It provides a sleek, floating interface that allows users to quickly browse their journal entries. By scanning existing pages against a customizable date pattern, it visually identifies days with active entries, enabling seamless one-click navigation through personal history.
And while you're there i can also recommend you to install the Advanced Panel Controls - which give you an easy way to resize, collapse, detach and manage all your side panels.
Thank you for the quick response! I did see mention of both the Journal Explorer and the Floating Journal Calendar but was confused how they relate to each other and whatever might be built into SilverBullet. I also had some trouble installing them, or at least getting your repo configured as I kept getting some odd (as in hard to comprehend) errors. I'll take another look though!
To be clear, I can install either or both depending on what I need and prefer?
Hey @stainless I just confirmed that what you're seeing is a bug. Working on a fix (and also adding all the guides as e2e tests to make sure what's described there keeps working).
