New DB screws up metadata #374
-
I wanted to create a database with the plugin for my movie database. I used the tag I had previously set for movies and managed to create the page. However, upon restarting obsidian the metadata of the movie files is screwed up. New lines are added and the YAML is invalid. Consequently, the db cannot find the files anymore and I have to manually fix every files metadata. Anybody got an idea why this is happening? |

Hi @Michel-Giesecke , v2.5.0 brings a lot of changes and (in theory) the bugs you are describing were fixed today. Which version are you using? |

I just set up a test and figured something out. I think the issue arises when renaming columns. When I rename columns it screws up the YAML frontmatter by adding invalid lines. |

I tried changing an inline datafields name and it again added invalid YAML lines and threw the following error.
Edit: I quickly checked and even with metaedit disabled the same error is thrown. So there is no connection there |
