There are quite a few posts regarding Markdown in DT, but the just-released version 3.7 introduced some very interesting new features and includes metadata support (!).
This is the content of the sample document I was using for testing:
Title: Just a sample document
Author: John Appleseed
Date: 2021-04-24
Comment: Dolorem laboriosam natus vero.

{{/Config/Header inclusion.txt}}
# [%title]
## Purpose
## Approach
## References
First thing I noticed, is that the title property uses the filename, regardless of the title keyword in the metadata.
The metadata variable ([%title]) is rendered perfectly, however when you look at the document’s Table of Contents, it still shows %title instead of the variable’s value.
Lastly, I was hoping to search on metadata, but either I’m doing it wrong or my workflow is not supported, or …
I was trying to search for the author John Appleseed, which should’ve returned my sample document, but using the Author nor the Metadata search returned any results.
As you can see, the title property changes and takes the value of the filename, but the other fields keep their value, identical to the source. Is this only an issue for the title perhaps? Just trying to see if I understand correctly.
Hello,
may I have an additional question.
When I tried to use the Metadata as described in the manual it works fine in my point of view. But when I was using the transclusion feature the metadata are shown in the rendered output. Is this an disadvantage or do I doing something wrong?
