    ah, you're talking about note references: https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/f1af56bb-db27-47ae-8406-61a98de6c78c so you want the backlinks of note references to also show up in the note?

    Yes.

    It would be nice when the reference is rendered to be able to have it include children (maybe even grandchildren) and backlinks.

    How about you point me at where I would start in the repo to impliment it? Then if it's too much for me I can give a more detailed feature request.

    Hi, I have the same problem. The backlinks used to appear in the previews but not anymore. Not sure what to do. Reload doesn't work.

    see https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/blob/master/packages/engine-server/src/markdown/remark/backlinks.ts#L76:L76 to get backlinks, you can use
    note?.links.filter(ent => ent.type === "backlink")
    getting started docs are here: https://docs.dendron.so/notes/sPDJcZPRfXhKwnmnh9Pea

    backlinks should still appear. if you run
    reload winidow
    , do they still not show up?

    It seems hit or miss to me sometimes but I haven't documented it.

    No reload Window doesn't work. They stop showing up a week ago or so in my main workspace, I assumed that the new backlinks panel preview was a substitute but tried another workspace and it works normally. Tried to find a misconfiguration in dendron.yml but didn't find any related.

    hello. does dendron has a "recent notes" kind of feature? I'd like to list the last n recently modified notes, as a reminder. I've been reading the wiki but it's very WIP

    Not at the moment. There is already an open issue for that: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron/issues/1257

    Is Mermaid diagrams not rendering inside the VSCode preview a bug?

    They should render. Are you having any issues rendering it?

    Yes, when I re-opened VSCode, the preview pane reopened as well because I used it last time, but there was no content. I clicked on the "Dendron: Show Preview" button which made the preview pane fill with content but the Mermaid diagram rendered as literal text (as if the triple-tick enclosure rendered source code). Closing the preview pane completely and opening it by using "Dendron: Show Preview" fixed it.

    Can you bulk convert
    #hashtags
    to
    [[tags.hashtags]]
    ? I like using hashtags when rapid entering information, but generally don't like having the # in front of it when comes time to publish.

    Tag notes are created under the
    tags.*
    hierarchy by default. You can open the tag note (Ctrl+Enter or Dendron: Go to Note) then use "Dendron: Rename Note" from command palette. It should update all links for that tag. Rename option in the file explorer should also work. Refactor Hierarchy can also be used if you are wanting to rename multiple tags in the
    tag.*
    hierarchy.

    I know how to do it manually, reason I mention
    bulk convert
    is because I have literally hundreds, and sometimes when I'm busy inputting data in speed mode I might add another 20-30 easy and I'd like to convert them before publishing. If there's no existing way that's cool, I can make a macro as part of the publishing workflow.

    Hi, is there a way to make both the note md file you are making your notes in, and the preview window on the right sync as you scroll so they are at the same line?

    Thanks for the quick response @SeriousBug. Maybe it is just something I would get used to as time goes by, I'm not sure how to explain it but having a preview part in a separate tap/window instead of updating the note.md live takes up a lot of screen space, and then not having the two windows synced makes it seem hard for me to fully committing to using Dendron. I am curious, do you think most users do away with using the preview window? I notice in a lot of the tutorials/online videos the majority of the focus is away from the preview window anyway.

    Hi, sorry for the late... just created workspace and after just dendrom create meet with default values. The default hierarchy is dendron.templates, not just templates

    I personally only bring up the preview when I want to see what the note will look like when published, but I think a lot of people do use it more regularly. The scroll sync is something we do want to solve, but it's something that's technically difficult and will take a lot of work. There are also other possible solutions, like a "what you see is what you get" editor which are planned.
