In short I come from Roam, now I have Obsidian and Logseq synced in iCloud and am quite happy. Many format issues I could resolve with BBEdit, like aliases with ::
. The tip came from this forum , so thanks! There is one thing still left though…
My date conventions in Obsidian (YYYY_MM_DD
) and Logseq (yyyy_MM_dd
) are the same. They create the same files. So far so good. But older dates are now displayed in Logseq as Roam format Jan 6th, 2022
.
So my Logseq system refers to the latter but the files it represent are yyyy_MM_dd
. This is also the date convention which is in my config.edn
. It even has these lines added:
:journal/page-title-format "yyyy_MM_dd"
:journal/file-name-format "yyyy_MM_dd"
:date-formatter "yyyy_MM_dd"
How do I change all my older dates in Logseq desktop in this new date name convention? Apart from doing all by hand, there are a lot of them… maybe an alias trick?
I first would like everything to be the same before I really would like to switch preferably to YYYY-MM-DD.
As an example:
All help much appreciated.
