This release is out for the public now! PLUGINS MENTIONED: Dataview, Templater, Fantasy Calendar, Banners, ExcaliBrain THEME: AnupPuccin - czcams.com/video/7-SOwxpZQNI/video.html
This is HUGE! Any Obsidian power user lives and breathes frontmatter. I love the addition of this suite of features to acknowledge and support that. Thanks for the video!
This is fantastic. Thanks for the sneak peek! I often search for you and my Obsidian issue first simply because you're the most thorough and helpful. Keep up the great work!
Finally an amazing addition to the Obsidian core. It would be fantastic if in the future will be implemented a custom navigation tree (in side panels) based on the new property UI.
The developers have been doing some amazing things! This one will have so many quality of life changes for me I hesitate to list them all. But no more frontmatter being highlighted when I select 'all' - that's going to save me so much time daily. I write in Obsidian but often need to copy and paste the text elsewhere for submissions, etc. Not having to scroll through my writing each time will be useful. I hope one of the word count plugins I use updates so it no longer includes the frontmatter. That will be another minor annoyance out of my day. I'm so pleased I think I'll go and be an Insider. I won't be trying the 1.4 version just yet, but these folks rock and really deserve the support. Thanks, Nicole - you always explain things so well.
I had seen the planned Yaml improvements in the Roadmap and I was waiting for it. When my version was updated the first thing I did was looking for a CZcams video from you because you give the best explanation. Thanx for the great video. Keep up the good work. I started with Obsidian 2,5 years ago and it has been amazing what the two developers have done in this timeframe and how many video's you created.
I have a totally unrelated comment, apart from the great content you make, You have such a nice way to speak to your audience. A nice voice and cadence in your speech. I work as a lead QA of voice recordings. Kudos from the UK!
I'm glad I found this video, I was soooo confused trying to learn Obsidian when this properties table kept popping up but none of the tutorial videos had it!
Well within the first 12 minutes of your video, I had purchased catalyst, downloaded 1.4 and started migrating from inline properties to frontmatter. Thanks for the awesome walkthrough and thanks to the developers for making software actually worth spending money on.
Yey Nicole!!! Lovely stylish hair 💖 Thanks for this update video, as you may know, all your previous videos were an enormous help to setting up my PKM system, although I'm still struggling with setting goals as you described in the video Regular Reviews /w Periodic Notes. All things considered, it is still a work in progress and I would thank you a lifespan for your insights 🌱
Oh wow, this is amazing! Upgraded to Catalysts for this feature (and glad I did; totally did not understand how the internal links would have worked and saved myself SO MUCH duplicated effort by paying the money today instead of using the couple of weeks before it comes out to "fix" all my YAML). I also love some features of this even more than properties in Notion, particularly the way the values auto-suggest across the vault, so you can much more easily re-use keys instead of doing relational workarounds, and that you can delete properties *specifically for files that don't need them* without it destroying them everywhere! Use case off the bat: I read some books on recommendations from folks, so I want that noted, but a lot of books I pick up randomly...and now I can just delete that field for those book notes where it isn't relevant. Small thing, but simplifies what I'm looking at. Thanks for making such clear, exciting videos!
Thanks, Nicole. I love metadata, like YAML and TOML (Tom's Obvious Minimal Language in Rust). What is great about Obsidian becoming strict and having dropdowns of existing keys and values is I won't need to GREP my vault anymore to keep the frontmatter consistent. It's a massive win for the majority who aren't old-school coders. Love and light.
I also use this syntax I found easier and more flexible than YAML. Hope I can convert all to Properties and still have the ability to use templates and the QuickAdd plugin.
I finally joined Catalyst to jump on this! Thanks for the video breakdown. So informative. So it seems it also breaks MetaEdit (same dev as QuickAdd) which lets you use keyboard shortcut to update yaml without needing to scroll up to top of the note. Hope all the plugins will be updated for Properties soon.
currently i am using frontmatter only for aliases, but i love that you are now able to hide the properties, and edit them in the side pane. I use inline Yaml at the end of my notes and comment them out (e.g. %%MOC:: ) I prefer it that way at the moment, but let´s see where this is going :)
Nicely structured and presented. Easy to understand. Looking forward to trying it (surprised that commercial licensees don't get the early access option).
I recently moved from Evernote to Obsidian and I could never figure out how I wanted to use things like these property fields. Tags was a big one. I have waffled on whether or not I wanted the tags in the frontmatter or inline. Frontmatter tags weren’t clickable and now they are! I am digging it. I wish the display for the properties was a little more compact, but we can probably tweak that with a bit of CSS.
Hi, thanks for the video. If you are comfortable with regex (which imo is a great tool to learn for refactoring text files in general), you might be able to batch reformat properties with the regex replace plugin.
It looks amazing! I'm especially excited about properties in sidebar. But may I ask, can you hide these new properties in live preview? Like you could fold the old yaml block? I don't like the idea of them being visible all the time.
The update made me realize how many typos I made in the frontmatter and my general lack of consistency :D Time to clean it up, I guess. Hello weekend plans!
They need core uuid for notes generated from templates in front matter. As well as core created time and modified time in front matter. This must be on their priority list!
This is an extremely well-made video. Thank you so much for your clarity and pace. Would you be able to do a tutorial on the Tracker plugin with these updated properties? I'm trying to get my file properties going, including habit tracking in daily notes, but am unable to get Tracker to make visuals.
Thank you for that! These ones are always difficult to make because I try and time them with the release, so I particularly appreciate that. I did play around with Tracker, but honestly? It was too fiddly for me. I think it needs some work to be a bit more usable. I do have an idea for another solution, though, which I need to try out at some point...
This….has basically broken everything😢Spent countless hours developing a system to keep track of my metadata,tags,template file classes,etc using db folders all for nothing because it achieves exactly the same purpose.
This is mind blowing! I'm especially hyped that they've finally included support for links in frontmatter. I bought a catalyst license specifically because of this update! No more faffing around with metadata-menu! Though I like metadata-menu, it's a bit of a pain to set up and had a lot of complex features and automations that I really don't need
This + the new Importer plugin that supports Notion (and more) = *chef's kiss* I've put a bunch of my database collections back into Notion because it's just easier to keep them consistent. Will definitely try having them in Obsidian again when 1.4 comes out. (Yes, I've been using Obsidian in the meantime for spontaneous notes and other notes that don't need to be in a database.)
Edited: 1.4.2 added a toggle for "show properties in note", nevermind! Thanks for your update videos! original comment: Will every note have > Properties at the top in reading mode? Can you hide that like the YAML previously?
I'm sort of in the same boat, except I was using comments! I think I'm just going to leave them as is and just change the templates so that new notes are fixed going forward.
This is amazing! I wish I could do Notion-like database views without finicky plugins, but I'll take it. If they do a revamp of tables I can finally drop Notion.
Thank you so much Nicole for the discovery, big change are coming, i don’t know what to think about this change, it looks to close from notion for me. I like obsidian for his third part plug’in, it’s like Cooking with secret ingrédients, thanks to you i found so many reciepes, i will wait before using templater, lucky me, I`m just a beginner in the obsidian sandbox ;)
Maybe it's already in the works, but I wish there was a "Tag Wrangler"-like plug-in to rename properties and merge them just like tags. It's a bit embarrassing, but I have a couple dozen notes named published_date and a couple hundred with my preferred "date_published" way. I guess I could fiddle with the Linter plug-in, but I wish there was a native way to do it from within Obsidian. Thanks again for a great video! The amount of value per minute is impressive.
This is great, but I wish they would have saved this for a 2.0 release. Breaking Templater is a no go for me. Afraid to update past the current version now. I don't have the time to constantly update my vault.
Thank you. Would love a video that shows a workflow where you use the YAML frontmatter in your notes. Just a walkthrough example. I'm not sure how to start?
Really like the new front after it enforce consistency for dates and list type yaml. Plus it looks neater and sleeker. Waiting for the mobile app to be updated as well! ;)
Fantastic video. Now we need a real schema for structured types, including mandatory field designators. So an entity like a person or client or piece of inventory can have consistent info
Thanks for the great video and helpful explanation! Does this change the way we query properties/YAML data via a dataview query? Or do I just follow your last video "How to use the Obsidian Dataview plugin"
So basically the property type "List" adds multiple dimensions of tags, if I get it right. I mean it was present before, but now it has the same usability of tags.
I never really got into using YAML, so maybe this will kick start my interest in using it. 🙂 Do you happen to know what version of YAML Obsidian is using? I went onto the official YAML site but there were so many different options to choose frome!
I'm not entirely sure which version they're using, actually, and it doesn't seem to say that on the help site either... I guess the new UI will help with some of that ambiguity!
I did have one issue that I found with legacy notes that had front matter… For some reason I had a blank row before my --- and that blank row prevented the new front matter editor from recognizing the animal code. I'm having to go back and remove the blank line from every single note… The origin root cause was a template for my daily journal that had the extra blank line. Bottom line: no blank rows at the top of each note.
Thanks for sharing. I love the properties. But I found an issue after updating Obsidian. Most of the YAML metadata did not convert to properties for some reason. After digging much and testing I realized that those YAML metadata did not start right at the first line of the note. Hence they were hidden and only visible in Source Mode. Switching to Live mode didn't show anything. After removing the spaces then only the metadata converted to properties.
Hi Nicole. You show at 7:28 that a link can now be clickable. Does it actually link in the graph view as well? Before, I used to link to other notes but the graph wouldn't recognize it and link them.
Frustrating for me was a uuid on a templater template using the uuid plugin. It would simply copy the one from the template not creating a new uuid. You'd have to remove the id for it to get regenerated. I ended up removing this and then using templater to do it with a powershell command.
Being able to see the number of occurances of properties is huge for me, most stuff in the YAML is just things I want to see the number of occurances of
Hello, I really like your content, and that's why I would like to know what you think of an application called capacities that seems to be a fusion of notion and obsidian. Maybe the change would be interesting or better to stay with obsidian?
This is good but not that great. YAML can do far more than that, but this feature forces you write simple yaml with restricted properties, otherwise you could only see a limited UI that cannot display complicated YAML properly, especially nested YAML structure, like `fc-date` in the video.
I have found an issue and not sure how to get around it. In the frontmatter I have a "created" property that is a Date. I love this and if the calendar date has not yet been created it will create it. So far so good. My problem is that I then move the date file to a year/month folder. Once I have done that the link to the created property is broken and clicking on the link creates a new date file in the default location. Is there any fix for this?

Awesome! I'm sure Notion was a definite inspiration for this.
After trying the Project plugin, I finally understand how beautiful frontmatter is, can't wait to try 1.4!

It's a massive win for the majority who aren't old-school coders. Love and light.
This is great. I like to stick my metadata in a callout so I use :: instead of frontmatter yaml. Maybe I will convert over now with this update.
Yeah, I'm currently doing the same, but I think I'm going to convert to the standard priorities for most of my notes. 😍
I also use this syntax I found easier and more flexible than YAML. Hope I can convert all to Properties and still have the ability to use templates and the QuickAdd plugin.
I appreciate it, Nicole!. I'm really looking forward to this update. :)
That's so wonderful. Can't wait til we can get this for everybody. Thanks for showing this off! Very hyped.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Your videos are really great.
Fantastic new feature. Loving how Obsidian is evolving. Thanks for the clear explanation!
Hey, Jorge! I think so too! Excited about this one.
This is wonderful. I just started my vault recently and was having these exact pain points today as I start using properties
Yay! The team is pretty responsive to issues like that. Glad this came in time for you!
Makes the transition from Notion for my knowledge vault that much easier. I suspect some inspiration was taken…

Happy to help! I also love this improvement!
@@nicolevdh I might actually use tags now since they are now popping up while typing!
What about to creat a Taxonomy model for your fields? It is the best way to retain consistance about field types, names, uses and constrains.
Thank you so much Nicole for the discovery, big change are coming, i don’t know what to think about this change, it looks to close from notion for me.

Maybe it's already in the works, but I wish there was a "Tag Wrangler"-like plug-in to rename properties and merge them just like tags.

It should have a `regexp` type of property, this way we could force the consistency of the text types even more whether/when needed.

Thank you for the video, but how to show YAML frontmatter in obsidian publish?
The comma issue is because inline arrays weren't properly setup. You technically could use `property: [ element1, element2, element3 ]`
I have found an issue and not sure how to get around it. In the frontmatter I have a "created" property that is a Date. I love this and if the calendar date has not yet been created it will create it. So far so good.
My problem is that I then move the date file to a year/month folder. Once I have done that the link to the created property is broken and clicking on the link creates a new date file in the default location.
Is there any fix for this?
