    hmm, they should. one thing you want to check is if the note has been saved (the yellow highlight usually means that the link doesn't yet point to a file)

    i had a issue yesterday where the link was fine, but then i edited it to point to a different note and the link stoped working (at least in the ide) i had to erase one of the square brackets and put it back and it re-evaluated it

    Yes the note was saved and the link color was first ok and the link was functional. After I changed the name of that note, this link went yellow and broken. I expected the link to update as well, but it didn't.

    did you use the "dendron: rename note" command in the command palette?

    Adding to this old thing: The zooming is probably one of the more unique features of outliner apps, but I don't think it's that central to the outliner notetaking experience. There's other things: Markdown is hostile towards indentation that's not part of a bulleted/numbered list - four spaces is treated as a code block which is absolutely awful for indenting workflows. Markdown is by design hostile towards line breaks The chief thing about an outliner is that the main structuring principle of a document are blocks and the indentation tree. All other formatting, even if functional (eg. headings for live outlines etc.) is secondary. Markdown is the opposite: Headings+whitespace is primary, and indentation trees are reserved as one contained, special element of the document. Workflowy-esque outliners show a clear bulleted list, but eg. OneNote note containers are just an indentation tree of paragraphs - they have bulleted lists but those are entirely decorative. You can fold entire tables or embedded videos inside empty lines if you want to. So the most basic outliner functionality would just be privileging tabbed blocks of text or other elements, and enabling folding and shuffling those blocks around with keyboard commands / drag and drop. Zoom is fancy, but actually very far down the list of making a proper outliner experience

    Has anyone ever had some issues refactoring/renaming hierarchies? I was playing around with this feature (dendron's unique and very sweet) rename, but things went sideways. For instance, a note couldn't be found to be deleted, but it was found to be renamed and it certainly exists. I reloaded the index/cache, but still, the issue persists. I doubt I found a issue. I'm probably doing something wrong. Any advice is welcome. thanks in advance for all your help guys..

    I would guess that this has something to do with the spaces in the file names, but I really don't know

    Hello! I just found dendron last night and i m thinking in migrating from obsidian. Is there a way to automatically change the status of a task to done/or other statuses without actually going into the note and typing it?

    is there a shortcut for switching a task's state? in the following format?
    Copy code

    i think i could add that pretty easily (never done a vscode extension before) if someone could point me to a dev room for asking questions about the code
