    So in the bottom right corner you say it tells me, that two notes have the same ID. But when I use the lookup, it doesn't find the second note. The first note it mentions in the notification is one i turned into the second note, bcause I refactored it.

    I want to use 2 different Portable VSCode installations , one for Dendron, one for other stuff. If I want to start them parallel but get errors that VSCode is already running. Which is correct, of course. Is there any chance to do that ?

    Can I ask why you want two different installations? Is it just because you keep it on thumbdrive or something? Workspaces is the default answer for how you do something like that since you can have different plugins in different workspaces. That said, I just put vscode on two thumb drives, created the data folder on them so they would run locally and started them both up. I didn't create a local tmp folder, so that would use my system... They were the same version, I guess. Are you using two different versions or same version?

    I'd start by rebuilding indexes. If that doesn't work, try Dendron Doctor to see if there is anything in there that detects anything. If that doesn't work, I'm out of ideas.

    I know Dendron is "markdown based" but how tied to GFM is it? Would it be possible to extend it to working with org docs as well? https://twitter.com/jitbit/status/1383174569759027201?s=20&t=wzbm9ynhKgXKsDb1syv51Q

    @jeep I worried about incompatible extensions and want to keep my dendron instance stable

    Then workspaces is probably easier than using portable and you get the advantage of auto updates. For your extensions you can disable them in just a given workspace.

    And conversely, you can globally disable an extension and enable it only for a given workspace in the same way.

    So you know how we can highlight some text and press ctrl + shift + i to create a task note and it would convert the text to a task note. Can we do the same with meeting notes? If I have lets say "- meet john" then can you highlight the text and create a meeting note to make something like "[[meet john | meet.10.10.2022.meet-john]]"

    > Shows indicators in the form of dots (max 5) to reflect the word count of that entry. Each dot repesents 250 words. found explanation on the wiki, I guess I never write length notes before to notice that... thanks anyway

    Sorry about the confusion 😅 Currently the calendar view real estate is a bit limited and we are looking at ways to improve the experience of using the Calendar view in the future.

    currently we don't have a straightforward way of doing that. You could achieve this by writing a custom note trait for the meeting note, we don't have an out-of-the-box command that does this. Could you create a feature request on this matter?

    we initially parse raw markdown assuming it is GFM, which then goes through a series of other transformations to support Dendron specific features. At the end this is used to render the preview and published output. So the entire chain of parsing does assume that the input would be GFM and swapping that out may not be trivial, though we haven't explored that avenue enough to give you a definitive answer yet.

    I dropped the daily completely so I can easily have an entry like journal.2022-10.review for a monthly review entry

    Hi. I would like to replace Logseq by Dendron as it seems much more open (the frontend being VS Code, which is so extendable). - However, what I like in Logseq, is taking meeting notes in the daily pages, and on the side bar opening pages for my main colleagures. So thanks to the backlinks preview, I can see at glance all meetings I had with my colleagues. (see attached screenshot) - A workaround I found on Dendron was for each meeting notes I put in a daily note, to do
    Dendron: Copy Note Ref
    and then paste the link to the user page. By doing so, I can in the preview pane see all the backlinks like in Logseq (see other screenshot). Is there a way to automate a bit my workaround in Dendron? By the way, I do not use the backlinks view in Dendron as I cannot see all preview at once.

    Just be aware that the calendar view in the Dendron sidebar only works with the default hierarchy but that's only a minor inconvenience for me

    I've never used that for anything other than looking at it to determine the date, so I'm not likely to miss it.

    I have everything time-based under `journal`; it's what works for my brain. Like @Bassmann , the only drawback seems to be that the calendar view isn't as handy. From root, I have for instance:
    journal.2022.10.2022w41
    or
    journal.2022.2022q04.big-deadlines
    .

    Is there a VSCode extension that lets you paste rich text/HTML as markdown like Typora does (https://support.typora.io/Copy-and-Paste/#:~:text=Usually%2C%20you%20could%20press%20Command,and%20convert%20it%20into%20Markdown.) ?
