Automatic title value in yaml

[viaahmed]

Thanks for the plugin 🙌

Could you please add a feature that automatically adds the title attribute with the file title as value?

It would help in preparing digital garden

Is https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter/blob/master/docs/rules.md#file-name-heading what you are looking for?
edit: oh oops I missed the YAML part.
Yeah, that could be an option for https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter/blob/master/docs/rules.md#insert-yaml-attributes

Err, I think, the plugin is still unable to fetch the title into YAML frontmatter. It is just writing what I specified in plugin settings.

What exactly I want is that, It should automatically insert the file name next to the title attribute, just like the Automatic Heading made from 'file name'.🤗

I also would like to be able to insert filename as a title in YAML, along with the dates created and modified.

Even better --
YAML Title is created as Filename if no H1 in the file, if there is an H1, then the value of H1 is put into the YAML Title field, of course, only if title doesn't already exist.

Yes, please!

"YAML Title is created as Filename if no H1 in the file, if there is an H1, then the value of H1 is put into the YAML Title field, of course, only if title doesn't already exist."

Would have to be the first H1 if people aren't using titles correctly to keep from bugging out or concatenating.

@platers hope you are doing well, this plugin has a lot of potential, and I am waiting for this feature. Hope you could understand. I want mention @Jekyll-Garden, this Jekyll theme is compatible with obsidian.md files but there is a caveat, the files need to have compulsorily in their yaml a title value. So, automating this process, would save a lot of time and effort. Thanks 👍
