Journal entry

Supported Journal mode as described here

Inspired by ideas and comments in issue #123, #125, #1072 and #1518. Considering that attachments have been supported, I think journal mode can be supported without nested folder structure, at least for the need of daily journaling. A nested folder feature may still be necessary for other reasons.

@ttdtrang Should we close #1574?

[ttdtrang]

I think so. This one includes the previous.

[Rokt33r]

@ttdtrang Sorry for making you wait. I'm going to merge this on v0.12.0. Could you fix conflicts again?

[ttdtrang]

@Rokt33r Done.

[Rokt33r]

I think I should close this. I think we should provide this in a separate app.
Let's discuss this more in the slack! Please join!

Awww, this is a feature I was really looking forward to! I would still love to see this added.

Even if a journal feature can't be built in, hierarchical organization of notes would still be valuable.

Just wondering if this ever got picked up in an other form, either in a new app or the existing one? Cheers!

@joshlemer There is no designated journal mode.

I am curious though, with the new app, what is stopping you from making a daily note title with the date in a folder for the current year/month? With subfolders and note titles you could achieve a journal right?

[markerikson]

Yes, and I've been doing that for years now:

However, from an organizational perspective, it would be nice to at least have the folders list turned into a tree so that I could collapse older years.

Also, every time I create a folder for a new month, it's created at the bottom of the list, and I have to manually drag it all the way to the top of the list, which is annoying.

[Flexo013]

Yeah, I understand the frustration there. Subfolders in the old app #125 would be a solution to that. Or maybe one day when the new app supports full storage transfer you could switch to that; since that version has subfolders (but lacks some other features).
