Keywords: Test #test
yields a keyword of Test #test, not two independent keywords.
Yes, the emboldening appears randomly ā or at least the rationale is opaque to me. I hadnāt noticed whether it affected the outcome or no, so thatās useful to know, thanks.
In fact, Iāve just checked and removing the bold doesnāt add the properties. All very strangeā¦
[Edit] Answered this before reading Christianās post, which solves the problem!
Hi Christian,
Thanks ā it does indeed work with no trailing spaces! Iāve been including them following advice (canāt remember where) that itās less confusing on less capable markdown previewers, but Iām happy to drop them if itās breaking DT3 features.
Many thanks again!
Thank you so much!!! It works. There were two things I didnāt know.
- Convert hashtags to tags under tools. That pulled in the YAML tags.
- The YAML tags have to be seperated by commas. Not by spaces. Otherwise DT reads them as one word. E.g ātags: yellow moonā is read as one tag ā¦not two tags.
Is there a way in the āGlobal setupā of DT to automate the conversion of hashtags to tags? Or do I have to do it one by one? I donāt mind doing it one by one, but it would be great to be able to do it in bulk. Thanks.
Also note this (from page 16 of the user guide (also available through the in-app Help)):
Hashtags do not support spaces in them and they should be listed on a separate line.

Yes. Thatās it! Thank you very much!
hello Christian + DT-team,
I have the issue that DT doesnĀ“t pick up on the list of tags rendered by Omnivore for the YAML-header.
it does look like:
tags:
- one
- two
- three
the OV people regard this as complying to YAML standard.
ā is there anything that can be done about it, so DT picks up on those tags?
thx for any help!
Neither the MultiMarkdown engine nor DEVONthink accept this.
just to document, for anyone running into similar problems coming from Obsidian, as to handing over YAML in ways Devon Thinks stricter code adherence culture does not process: there is a perfect, very versatile & flexible plugin to auto- and bulk-reformat YAML-syntax in all kinds of ways.
just check here, and be merry:
Hi @Stephen_C & @BLUEFROG
I follow the steps and can create all the metadata (Keywords, Author, titleā¦) with YAML header,
Except one crucial for me : the tag.
- I check the goup of my MD Note, it allows to create Tag
- I have other tags in DVTK that I generated via the Tag / Balises bar : itās worksā¦
What is the possible blocking element?
PS : Il will transfer all my Evernote note with Tags in YAML metadata (via Yarle) and would like to keep it in DVTK.
Thanks Ć lot.

What do the tags look like in the YAML file?
Thx for you quick reply @chrillek !
tags: Ƨa_marche, Test
title: ā@ YAML_Tags issues Creationā
I follow exactly the YAML rulesā¦what is strange it working well in the beginning and when I reorganise my group itās falling!
Your tags work for me in DEVONthink Pro. Is that YAML section the very first thing in the markdown file? Have you checked that the tags donāt appear when you go to rendered (from edit) mode?
Stephen
Yes @Stephen_C itās works not visible in edit mode.
I also use Obsidian and you can proprely write your YAML syntax with Linter @lerone mention it previouslyā¦
Zip and post the actual document, please.
This is the document @BLUEFROG

Thanks,
You need to enable Preferences > Files > Import > Tags: Convert hashtags to tagsā¦
PS: It is inadvisable to put punctuation other than spaces, hyphens, underscores, and dots in filenames. Just something to consider.
Itās Works thanks!
,the @ character block the tag creationā¦
Strange because it seems working with it in your latopā¦
But no matter I will rename my titles ā¦
Thanks for your help all of usā¦
Youāre welcome.
You can use @ in tags, metadata, and group names but we donāt suggest it for file or database names.
