Looks like the Markdown links page is missing, not sure how to create links. I also have no experience with VS

that's a bug for the rendered website, will be fixing it. it should work locally in your workspace if you click the link. the recommended way of doing links in dendron is wiki links eg:

[[dendron.faq]]

you can add a name to your link with the

|

character, eg.

[[ FAQ | dendron.faq ]]

How do I create a new note automatically and link it from my current note

You can create a scratch note for ad hoc notes: https://www.dendron.so/notes/5c213aa6-e4ba-49e8-85c5-1bdcb33ce202.html#scratch-note This is what we did in the demo. Otherwise, you can use the lookup (https://www.dendron.so/notes/a7c3a810-28c8-4b47-96a6-8156b1524af3.html#creating-notes) to create new notes

Are backlinks not working right now?

they should be - do you have

Dendron Markdown Links

extension installed?

ok let me check

yes i do

so how do i create one?

Or how does one get created automatically?

when you add a link from one note to another, it will show up in the backlink panel

eg. you are in

foo.md

and you add a link like

[[bar]]

inside it. going to

bar.md

, you will see a backlink referencing

foo.md

i see ok cool

thanks

I'm getting a "you cannot define a mapping item when in a sequence" when trying to define a schema and create a note. What would that mean?

that means there's an issue with your yaml

you can paste it in yaml lint: http://www.yamllint.com/

oooh dang

okay

Hello, I noticed the Github link under "Join Us" at https://www.dendron.so/ redirect to the Bootstrap repository instead of the Dendron’s one.

@User opps, good catch. updated!

Hey Kevin could you send me your template for your projects too?

thx

is there a recommended way of maintaining TODOs in dendron? i plan to use it for meeting notes and connect those to my projects. most of the time they contain various TODOs and i'd like to have an overview of all of them. I could just search for "TODO" but it would be nice if it was more integrated, e.g. being able to publish them as a list (to let my colleagues know my current tasks)

I am wanting to create a schema that matches on something like this: pro.work.python. I am able to get it to work with pro.work just not pro.work.python. What am I missing?

@User hmm, what does your schema file look like? to get at what you wanted, i would do something like the following

yml
- id: pro
  desc: projects
  parent: root
  children:
    - work
    - personal
- id: personal
  namespace: true
  children:
    - quickstart
    - concepts
    - tips
    - faq
    - upgrading
    - topic
    - install
- id: work
  namespace: true
  children:
    - quickstart
    - concepts
    - tips
    - faq
    - upgrading
    - topic
    - install
- id: quickstart
  desc: getting started with a project
- id: concepts
  desc: basic concepts to do with the project
- id: tips
- id: faq
- id: upgrading
- id: install
- id: topic
  desc: important areas of a project
  namespace: true

@User yes - this has come up a bunch so making a video to showcase. will be up later today!

Awesome! Thank you very much 🙂
