I don't know if you can force it to create elsewhere, but you can modify the dendron.yml manually afterwards. Change workspace: vaults:... update the fsPath and then move the existing stuff in the filesystem and reload the window.

Issue solved: I had a large note 16kb with lots of logs (json format), all traces were in raw format. by adding all traces into a code block, dendron can start normally. However It is curious that a single note can cause this level of bug... I will do more tests on my side and file an issue on github if I understand something

is this the cannonical way to do this? (I'm a bit surprised that this usecase "keep one vault local, sync the other one with something like Dropbox" is advertised everywhere but there's no clear instructions how to set it up).

For that, you would need to ask someone with more experience. I didn't find it documented so hacked away until it worked

thanks for sharing your hack 🙂

is there a proper way to create a

bare

workspace? (without having to delete the default vault, etc). I can see the

bare

vault is mentioned a couple of time in the docs but no instructions how to create it?

sorry for me posting so many newbie questions (having a rather hard learning curve it seems). I wonder why I'm not getting any auto completion when typing links to another notes. (I believe I saw it working in demo videos). Do I somehow need to enable it? Or is this the regular behaviour with recent Dendron versions? (I've read somewhere that preview scroll sync is broken, too).

i.e. typing

[[

doesn't trigger auto completion as described here https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/3472226a-ff3c-432d-bf5d-10926f39f6c2/#wiki-links

I think Dendron has a pretty steep curve... When you are typing, try hitting ctrl-space, does that give you an autocomplete?

I'm only getting strings that vscode has seen before (builtin vscode functionality, for when intellisense has nothing else to offer, very incomplete) (with the

abc

icon. In the demo video the suggestions have have the proper

≡

icon).

and I'm only getting it when I explicitly hit CTRL+SPACE, not automatically while typing

Hmm... so when you type [[ you get no autocompletion? or are you looking for other auto complete?

correct, I type

[[

and nothing happens

When I backspace, it stops giving me completion and I need to then ctrl-space. But I don't think I set anything up to get it

oh, interesting .... it seems to work when I only have a single vault

In your dendron.yml, do you have

enableXVaultWikiLink: true

?

no, it's

false

Try setting that true, rebuilding your indexes, and see if it helps

(didn't set it explicitly, all default)

ok, thanks! trying...

didn't change the behavior at a first look

(rebuilt index and restarted vscode)

Does anyone have any idea why this

Sorry I couldn't help. You'll need to find someone more knowledgeable than me

So... what else do people put in "daily'' other than "journal"? I'd actually like to reverse it to journal.daily so that I could then have journal.monthly (assuming I get back into doing monthly reflections)... But I don't have anything else that I think goes in "daily"

thanks for all the good hints. appreciate your help!

I made my hierarchy

time.journal

instead of

daily.journal

so i can have notes for y/m/d, seasons, weeks etc and other general time-related notes for things like time management, time tracking, procrastination etc

is there a way to disable the

@

completion trigger in Dendron so I can use Pandoc-Citer and citeprocs? I've tried the extension in non-Dendron workspaces and it works fine, but I don't know how to configure Dendron to stop expecting

@author

to refer to a note in the user hierarchy called

user.author

this is basically the only snag i've had in the editing experience so far
