    ok. I am using Dendron on my workj system, syncing it to git and then pulling it into my personal machine. Again. make notes and sync it back. If I add this file to git ignore in my work machine, would it still take into account, the files I have added in my personal machine too for speedy note retrieval?
  • s
    The cache file is just used to speed up the startup of Dendron. If you add it to gitignore, Dendron will still pick up any new notes you added, it just might be a slight bit slower at startup because it has to read each note. It's still worth it to avoid merge conflicts.
  • m
    Sure. I will add that to git ignore. Thanks 🙂
  • d
    I added a 
    related: [[some.file]]
    to my frontmatter so I can link to related files and access them easily, is this an OK practice? I would then probably just use the frontmatter for related links instead of putting it directly in my notes
  • s
    You won't get backlinks or highlighting for it, but you can still use "Goto Note" on it I think. There's also a feature request for this if you want to up vote that to show interest: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1531

    any advice on what to do?

    Moved to Dendron at work from Foam and love it. Tried to move on MacOS (personal) but the preview doesn’t show anything. There’s an open github issue about this. Anyone successfully running on MacOS?
  • k
    is this a public repo? do you have a link to it?
  • g
    Yeah it’s public

    are you using the dendron preview? if so, can you run 
    diagnostics report
    and send me the output?
  • k
    dendron publish debug
  • p
    This error comes when I run Preview, the second is the result of 
    diagnostics report
    Here is my 
    dendron.code-workspace

    Perhaps my workspace configuration is at the wrong level? I used 
    initialize
    and my two vaults are at 
    vault/
    and 
    joplin/
    respectively. I had a note open when running 
    preview
    , but still got the error 
    no document currently open, and no document selected to open
    .

    Update: as if by magic, my problems are solved? No idea what I did different that made it work this time but not prior. I swear its been two days of running 
    preview
    to no avail before this 😆
  • p
    Is there a Dendron cheat sheet available anywhere?
  • p
    I did some Googling about an hour ago and didn't find anything.
  • k
    not that i know of 😅
  • p
    The docs /wiki are quite good though in my recent experience
  • p
    The docs/wiki are very good.
  • p
    I guess I will need to put together a quick cheat sheet for myself.
  • b
    hope you'll consider publishing it if you do end up putting something together
  • p
    Absolutely
  • p
    I wish I could change my wallpaper at work. Then I could make one wallpaper a Dendron cheat sheet and the other a vim cheat sheet
  • b
    if you integrate them well, maybe you can use the same cheat sheet for both 😜
  • m
    At anyone who has recently tried this: Is the select vault prompt not appearing when I set confirmVaultOnCreate just an issue on my end? Upgrading my desktop and wanted to know if I should try again or if I should wait for the bug fix before trying again.

    Hi all, is it possible to add the Dendron specific YAML frontmatter to a note created outside of Dendron? e.g. if I create a note in the Dendron workspace folder from a text editor on my Phone while I'm out and about, and I want to include it in Dendron, or perhaps, I am pulling in a bunch of old pre-Dendron files and rather than copying and pasting each one into a new note
