Hi...I am wondering I am trying to incorporate shields into my notes and I want those to be links to other notes within the same vault. Is there a way to do this?

thanks this is pretty interesting

journal note format

what are shields? first time i've heard of this 🙂

popular in github...also same as badges...https://ileriayo.github.io/markdown-badges/

any issues with >10k notes?

i'm getting closer to 40k notes and been working great 🙂

that's good to hear.. i was wondering about filesystem limitations

you might want to check out this thread -> https://discord.com/channels/717965437182410783/932609418481246319/932662902912069662

looks promising. most solutions start to bog down at ~10-20k.. will multi-vaults make it palatable to go beyond that? (theoretically, not that i ever imagine i'd approach that)

also what are your thoughts on archival?

multi-vault isn't actually necessary for that. its more for access control, see https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/24b176f1-685d-44e1-a1b0-1704b1a92ca0.html you can get to that scale on a single vault. for archival, we'll probably introduce an archival vault in the future. it gives dendron a hint of where to not look for active content and will let us do some optimization on the indexing side.

all vaults are underneath the dendron workspace isn't it?

can i have a vault in a different directory anyplace else (say, in an encrypted folder)

yeah, vaults can be anywhere really

all vaults are defined as paths "relative" to the workspace. you can have them anywhere

I have mine outside the directory of my workspace

does the configurations leak any information about notes in the vault?

the only thing I can think of that can potentially reveal something is that duplicate payload thing

or maybe not

yeah, I don't think there's anything really

if a vault is inaccessible (i haven't tested) does dendron go about its day?

I had things mixed up btw, I was thinking of site hierarchies, for some reason I thought that duplicateNoteBehavior contained the top-level hierarchies

Yeah, Dendron would just load the other vaults it can access (I believe). If wondering about encryption, I use a personal workspace that includes a Keybase-hosted encrypted git repo. Works out of box with it if you have Keybase installed and configured, and git installed

maybe missing something elementary here. I tried using an existing directory of markdown notes as a vault following instructions in https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/683740e3-70ce-4a47-a1f4-1f140e80b558/#can-i-use-dendron-with-existing-notes , i.e., running Dendron: Change Workspace command in the directory with existing markdown files and I keep getting an error on Mac: "No Dendron workspace found. Please run Dendron: Initialize Workspace to create a workspace at"

Can someone point me to what I am missing?

This is with Dendron 0.8.0

ah, those docs are a lie. change workspace no longer creates a

dendron.yml

file it it doesn't exist

Thanks for the quick reply. I was thinking of the following strategy to using dendron while keeping the directory name (say x) and the files: Create a new dendron vault in the parent directory of x, copy the markdown files from the original directory to the vault, then rename x to y and the vault to x (the original directory name). 1. Would this work? 2. Is there a better way?
