  • Hi all, this is a pretty niche issue in the TTRPG space but I know the folks that can assist are out there in this sub. I recently picked up the Pathfinder 1e Bestiary repository from github. I imported the relevant content and it's lovely but needs a couple of bug fixes. It relies on a plugin called Fantasy Statblocks, which renders what I believe is YAML identified between markers into statblocks. Example:

  • fantasy-statblocks

    Create Dungeons and Dragons style statblocks for Obsidian.md

  • obsidian-linter

    An Obsidian plugin that formats and styles your notes with a focus on configurability and extensibility.

  • 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!
