metadatamenu VS obsidian-linter

Metadata Menu plugin aim to fill that specific gap. It doesn't contain all your suggestions but you could make a FR if you feel like it

Sounds like you want https://mdelobelle.github.io/metadatamenu/ , what you are describing is similar to the tutorial videos where he builds a music library.

As a programmer you will really appreciate the Metadata Menu plugin. It adds the concept of classes (sort of) to Obsidian. demo 6: FileClass does exactly what you want. When you enable Dataview, Templater, and Metadata Menu plugins to Obsidian you essentially have a powerful object oriented database platform.

https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu Look for: Control field from dataview tables with dataviewjs in the docs

Metadata Menu might be what you are looking for.

The plugin I used in the video: Plugin to choose the color and the icons for the callouts: https://github.com/valentine195/obsidian-admonition - Plugin to create notes from a selected text: https://github.com/chhoumann/quickadd - Plugin to add a command in the left ribbon: https://github.com/phibr0/obsidian-commander - Plugin for templates: https://github.com/SilentVoid13/Templater - Plugin to manage fields on notes: https://github.com/mdelobelle/metadatamenu - Plugin to display filtered tables of your notes: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview

✨For notes with a supercharged tag/fileclass definition, a Note's metadata button will be added right next to the note's link/tab header/file/backlink/star-result/search-result/... to access the note's metadata form without opening the note or navigating in the context menu. 👨🏻‍🎨 The Note's metadata button icon can be customized in the fileClass definition (from lucide.dev icons set). You can customize where these buttons are displayed or hidden in the settings. 🤝When used in combination with the Supercharged links plugin, you get a great understanding of what a note is about and great ease to manipulate its metadata from anywhere in your vault. 📌Better UX for section choice for "add a field at section" command. 🔧Lots of under-the-hood optimization, so if anything work act as expected, don't hesitate to open an issue in github. 📚Documentation here: https://mdelobelle.github.io/metadatamenu/ 🍿Demo here: https://youtu.be/I73uW8fqOZ8

I did some searching and found a tool by Victor Tao (not me), called Obsidian Linter, and it got me wondering, have any of you found success using this tool, or something similar? I have been working with it for a minute now, and though a lot of my time right now is spent tweaking the linting options, I feel once I have gotten everything set up the way I need it, this could be quite the game changer for my productivity and note-taking speed.

It turns out that the plugin Linter is able to automatically escape YAML keys that shouldn't be there, including this exact use case, a colon followed by a space. The trouble is that it is not doing it, which I assume means Linter is only parsing the frontmatter YAML for this issue and is not checking the content between ```. Anyone able to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

This plugin can do exactly what you need. https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter

Maybe Linter is something for you. I use it to add/remove frontmatter.

And then i use [Linter](https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter) the remove the "#".

There’s a linter plugin for Obsidian, too.

I use https://github.com/platers/obsidian-linter, which can add the current file name as a header. I create a new file, press CTRL+S or CMD+S to trigger it, and everything is already in place.
