    Sure thing, two questions/suggestions here: > 1. Maybe we can replace the "Quickstart" section in this page https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/4ushYTDoX0TYQ1FDtGQSg/ with a page reference to publish/cook/github, which is this page https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/yg3EL1x9fEe4NMqxUC3jP/ because I found that most of us use github while fail after faithfully following the instructions under the quickstart section because it is does not include detailed instructions like in the cook/github page I think your right. Wanted the quick start to be host agnostic but githuub is probably the most common destination. Lets add a note under quickstart:
    Copy code
    This tutorial gets you started publishign with github pages.
    2. What does dendron publish build(under https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/2340KhiZJWUy31Nrn37Fd/) do? Is it necessary for publishing? (will submit a pull request after both of these points are confirmed) Nextjs publishing involves building your javascript and exporting the html.
    dendron publish build
    builds the javascript but we also run
    publish build
    before doing
    publish export
    so its not required

    Stupid slightly off topic question to the mac users here: any idea why tab completion of snippets might stop working in vscode? Exactly the same config works on Windows so I'm confused. Ctrl+space works but tab is more convenient

    Any idea why
    dendron builtSiteV2
    would fail because it cannot find the new name of the vault? I recently renamed my
    code
    vault to
    tech
    , and when I run the above command, it complains that there is no known vault named "code". I have updated it to "tech" in both dendron.code-workspace & dendron.yml, and can't see anywhere else where "code" is used.

    this happened to me recently too, I had to just go into settings and update the Editor: Accept Suggestion On Enter option

    Getting error: no workspace file. IIRC that is the dedron.code-workspace file? If so, I certainly have that. For added context, I have a main repo and a publishable repo. the publishable repo is the one I am getting this error in. the publishable repo just draws from the main repo:
    Copy code
    "folders": [
            {
                "path": "../main/tech",
                "name": "tech"
            }
        ],
    also
    Copy code
    workspace:
        dendronVersion: 0.66.1
        vaults:
            -
                fsPath: ../main/tech
                name: tech

    Is there a command or GUI method to create a child note of the current note? I love how easy it is to add notes at stub levels in the Tree View, and similarly how nice it is to navigate to siblings by commands. I'm hoping I've just missed another handy feature like those, but for creating a child note.

    currently it’s just using lookup which will be prefilled at the current hierarchy. there’s also the go down command which i think creates a lookup

    Weird! My muscle memory is telling me that I've been using
    command + shift + s
    , but I don't remember it creating scratch notes before. Maybe I was overriding that somehow? Anyways, yes, both
    command + l
    and
    Dendron: go down
    do exactly what I was hoping. Thanks Kevin!

    yeah, that’s been our shortcut for scratch notes for a while so sounds like an override

    i think i had a git merge error that broke my instance of dendron, uninstalling didnt seem to correct it, is there maybe another way to reset dendron?

    If you think it's due to a merge error, then likely culprits are changes to
    dendron.yml
    or potentially
    dendron.code-workspace
    - maybe try reverting those to versions prior to your merge and see if Dendron can start properly again?

    Is there a good way to convert over a bunch of Obsidian notes to Dendron? I mean I assume that it will kind of "just work" but I'm guessing that there might be gotchas
  • k

    yep. you can use our markdowm import -> https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/f23a6290-2dec-45dc-b616-c218ee53db6b.html

    Nice! However I ran into problems, It's complaining about not having a vault, I tried to name it just "Obsidian" but that didn't work, I tried "local" but it said that also didn't exist. Not sure what this means:
    Copy code
    yml
    src: /Users/justgage/Sync/Obsidian/
    
    vaultName: Obsidian # <- What is this?

    11/04/2021, 2:41 PM
    ah, this is the name of an existing vault in your workspace (we don't currently create a new one). i believe the default is just
    vault
  • g

    11/04/2021, 2:42 PM
    Ah! Good to know. I managed to make a new one via the command, however I found the local/remote question confusing.

    ah - we let you add a vault by creating a new folder in your file system or importing an existing one from github. we're still working on the UX for this 😅

    If I wanted to use the refactor tool to add a "slack." to the front of a bunch of notes, how would I do that?
  • g

    11/04/2021, 3:01 PM
    The just have slack somewhere in the name, may not be at the start

    do the notes have a pattern? refactor works based on regex (minus captures, we don't support that yet). so if you have a bunch of notes that are
    messages*
    , you can enter that as the first pattern and then use
    slack.messages
    as the second

    More or less I want to take any note containing "slack" and put "slack." at the front:
    Copy code
    why-slack-is-a-problem.md -> slack.why-slack-is-a-problem.md
    if that makes sense
