Enable users to add an additional format to be used to recognise dates in file names #1369

Hmmmm - maybe it partly isn't a duplicate after all. If so, my apologies. I read the title ("Customise date format") and this feature description to mean it was the same as existing requests - to allow different date formats on things like 📅
Re-reading the later text, it sounds like the fundamental part is more specifically to allow a custom date format for "use file name as scheduled date for undated tasks". Any chance the summary could be made more specific please? |
Yes the fundamental part is the custom date format for "use file name as scheduled date for undated tasks". I'm used to the european format so i use the daily note with that format. So it would be nice if i could use option "use file name as scheduled date for undated tasks" but i don't want to change to the YYYY-MM-DD in the daily notes. But i don't need a format change for all shown dates. So i only mean/need the compatibility with other formats at this option. |
Brilliant. Thank you very much for the suggestion. I'll have a think about the wording and update the issue, so it's clear for anyone who feels like implementing it. |
ContextDaily Note plugins allow users to customise the format to use for the names of daily note files. Some countries use different formats to the For example, some European users will use 🔖 Feature description (updated)Enable users to add an additional format to be used to recognise dates in file names. Likely with a new field in the Date Settings section of the Tasks options. |
In view of this size of the backlog for this project, and the demotivating effect of a very long backlog on volunteer energy levels, I'm going through a slow process of reviewing tasks for things that are one or more of the following:
So I'm marking this one as 'not planned'. This doesn't mean 'won't fix' - it means not likely to be done in the foreseeable future. |
Just came across this plugin and have begun migrating tasks from Todoist, sad to see this issue closed. I would love to see custom (or at least additional) date formats. Never thought I'd be so picky about date formats, but here we are! I read this thread and understand the reasons for de-prioritizing this request, if my comment is enough to raise it up - great. Still a novice with Obsidian and Github, so thanks for all the effort already put forward. |
I think this would be a great addition |
🔖 Feature description
I'd like to have the ability to customise the date format e.g. to the european DD.MM.YYYY
✔️ Solution
A field in the configuration to customise the date format, like in other plugins. E.g. the daily note plugin:
With this option i'll be able to combine the plugins and use the "use file name as scheduled date for undatet tasts"
❓ Alternatives
A alternative is that the "use file name as scheduled date for undatet tasts" option is compatible with other patterns than YYYY-MM-DD
