Daily Notes are a great way to jot down random information into Obsidian without having to worry about exactly where it goes. ### Getting the Daily Notes Plugin The Daily Notes plugin is a core plugin that you can enable within Obsidian settings. I use the Periodic Notes plugin to add even more notes, like weekly notes, or monthly notes. ### Quickly Accessing Notes You can press Cmd + P to access the [[Obsidian Command Pallette]] and then access today's Daily Note. I have attached a keyboard shortcut Control Option Command D to open the daily note. You can also use the "Open Daily Notes Editor" to view your daily notes alongside other Daily notes. ### Organizing Daily and Weekly Notes I was really interested in organizing my notes into year/month/day. I used the Format entry to decide the exact location of my daily notes according to this structure: ![[14. etc/Obsidian/Plug-In Workflows/_attachments/image-3.png|12. etc/Obsidian/Plug-In Workflows/_attachments/image-3.png]] I specifically went after this format: ![[Daily Notes Plug-in Workflows .excalidraw.svg]] <font color="#244061">[13. Nakul]/[Daily Journal]/YYYY/MM/[W]ww/YYYY-[W]ww</font> "Your Vault Folder" is optional, as well as "Name of Daily Journal." I created those folders to organize my notes into a specific directory within my vault. I put them in brackets so that they are dynamically referenced, so changing the name of the referenced folder will still result in the correct link in the formatting field. I repeated the process for the Weekly notes as well: ![[Daily Notes Plug-in Workflows _0.excalidraw.svg]] ![[22. etc/Computer Tech/Obsidian/03. Plug-In Workflows/_attachments/image-1.png|498x24]] You can use the Calendar plugin to view the daily notes in an interface on the right side of the screen. This assumes your daily note folder location is correctly configured according to the plugin.
