you know anything about this ^?

this is a screenshot of vs code preview pane btw

could you share the markup that that was rendered from? and is that the Dendron preview or the vscode built-in preview

When I click the "dendron.markdown publish markdown" option then all I get is a message saying "contents copied to clipboard". I'm not sure how to convert the markdown text into pdf.

pandoc - pdf

Not sure if I'm understanding correctly. Do you mean to convert wikilinks into markdown links?

Hi! Yes, I mean that I think

How would one create a hot key for automatically generating a new note? For example CTRL + SHIFT + I, will automatically create a daily journal note. How would you create it for scratch notes?

something like:

json
/* in keybindings.json. 
* Use `Preference: Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)` to open.
*/ 
[
  ...
  {
    "key": "{desired keybinding}",
    "command": "dendron.lookupNote",
    "args": {
      "noteType": "scratch"
    }
  },
  ...
]

here are the relevant docs for reference:

There is also a

Create Scratch Note

command, and the default keybinding is

cmd/ctrl+shift+s

https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/eea2b078-1acc-4071-a14e-18299fc28f47/#create-scratch-note If you want to go further and skip the confirmation, you can add

noConfirm: true

to the keybinding

args

property like so:

md
[
  ...
  {
    "key": "{desired keybinding}",
    "command": "dendron.createScratchNote",
    "args": {
      "noConfirm": true
    }
  },
  ...
]

Hello team I am following this page https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/2340KhiZJWUy31Nrn37Fd/ for publishing my content. I see some errors related to yml parsing. Can I get some guidance on how to debug this further ?

I'm sorry for the late reply. It was indeed a vscode preview (I'm still learning how dendron works) but the dendron preview doesn't look good either:

I'm not really able to reproduce this; it might be something about your setup

seems like its a known issue

Hello team , If this is a wrong channel, can someone atleast let me know if there is one for figuring out issues like the one I am facing?

Can you share the command line you used to publish?

Thanks for the reply, once I deleted everything in the workspace and then following the steps, I was able to publish, I could see my data at localhost:3000. I should have kept the workspace intact , sorry about that . On an unrelated note: Do you foresee why the it is so slow to access the pages saved locally? Like whenver I try to access pages on localhost:3000 I find the site to be really really slow.

When you are in the development mode, Dendron has to build pages when you open them. When you publish the pages, all the pages are built so it will be faster.

Is there any way I can open a static file via a link like:

markdown
[file.txt](/docs/assets/txt/file.txt)

with a command? Tried both:

>Dendron: Open Link

>Open Link

Neither of which worked

Never mind 🤦🏼‍♂️ There was a typo in the file name I was trying.

>Open Link

works fine

Getting an error when I try ctrl-L to open a file “No available file name. This error should never occur!”

Which log file should I look at, to troubleshoot?

Is there a way to turn off publishing completely? Like, if I know for certain I never want to accidentally publish my notes, can I make it so I can't do that?

disable-publishing

For opening Dendron logs: - Open command palette -

Dendron:Dev: Open Logs

For troubleshooting, depending on if it is a weird problem with cache or note frontmatters, can try a few things: - Run

Dendron: Reload Index

command, then test - Run

Developer: Reload Window

command, then test - Run

Dendron: Doctor

->

fixFrontmatter

, then

Dendron: Reload Index

, then test

I noticed there are no docs on making more complex links between notes, where we can specify headings along with how many lines to include. When I make a link while hovering over a header with

cmd+shift+r

, I get something like this

![[mynote#first-heading,1]]

I noticed that the

1

here represents the first line onward. If I increment it, it's the second line onwards, and so on. I assume this would allow us to more intelligently select "only lines 1 and 2" as well, but I don't see this in the documentation https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/3472226a-ff3c-432d-bf5d-10926f39f6c2/

You can find more info about these here: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/f1af56bb-db27-47ae-8406-61a98de6c78c/

so it seems like I can only use Headers or Anchors to delimit what I want to show in the preview? I'm looking to just display the first line of the note

Yeah, you'd have to use a block anchor to a particular line, or create a new header if only wanting a small section embedded. This is done because of the fragility of direct line references. Linking to lines in source code has a similar problem, with a recent update to our file links pointing out the benefit of header/anchor links vs. lines: > Block anchors are more reliable because they will always refer to the marked line, but Dendron has to modify the file to insert a block anchor which looks like

^this

. You are free to move the anchor anywhere in the file or to put comment markers like

//

or

#

or anything else before them.
