We’ll see if this can be improved indeed. Regarding the “just the notes of a calendar event”, you mean as they appear in the notes field in the calendar app, without attendees, location etc?
Precisely. Thanks for the consideration!

Hello, just started using Agenda and I’m moving some data over from my task app. For this case I would like to make some templates. The concept of Auto Text is clear to me, but I can’t find any information on more static placeholders. For instance: name, subject, participants, etc. where the ‘placeholder’ text can be replaced when filling out the cloned template. Is this possible? Did I miss something reading this How To? Thanks!
Is there any solution to this problem?
I am using this code:
\event-notes \event-date(format: EEEE, MMM d)
Result is:
27 Aug 2021, from 08:00 to 09:30
I second ScottyJ’s request to just get a list of names.
Better yet, I’d like each name appear on a separate line (unordered list) so I can add information to each name. This is quite helpful if attendees are from different companies. Maybe the UOL could be a parameter.
Hi support team. What is the syntax to use with \Date in title to create “Week of xxxxx” such as “Week of 2021-Dec-27” which is start of next week? Thanks
You’ll find a complete overview of the supported syntax here:
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-31/tr35-dates.html#Date_Format_Patterns
However, I don’t think it will support the kind of date calculations you’d be looking for. The only way I can think of is that you do this part of the calculation in a shortcut or script and have that generate the note for you.
I think it would make sense to have a \table action that would insert a table in-place.
Thanks for the feedback.
Note that you can type three pipe characters in a row, and a space, to get table too. |||
I didn’t know that, thanks
Sounds like you’ll be very happy with the upcoming Agenda 14 update
Can’t wait
Is there a way to do this for notes created from templates on any date? For example, if I want to use one template to create notes for tomorrow and the day after with both notes having their title be their date with custom formatting.
I thought that \event-date
would do the trick, but I just get an empty title. I assume that this is because I’m creating the note from the day, not for a specific event.
This should work for you
\date(for: yesterday, format: MMM-dd-yyyy (EEEE))
Very detailed explanation which helped me a lot! Thank you for that.
One question. I tried to use, as template title, such text: Meeting Note from \event-date - and this one works well, showing start and end of meeting hour. So I decided it would be better to have it done this way: Meeting Note from \event-date(start) which should give me, for instance, “Meeting Note from 20 May 2022, at 18:00”. Instead I get this one: “Meeting Note from 0”. Is it a bug or I make a mistake somewhere?
You’d have to use it like this \event-date(start: full)
where full can also be medium or short, depending on how you’d like it to appear.
Thank you! Now it works!
I wish to create a note for the week of x, and then set the date range of the note to be from Mon-Fri.
I understand how to set dates within titles, but is it possible to set date ranges for notes themselves…and the projects to which they should be assigned…using templates?
Thanks!
Unfortunately that kind of relative date setting isn’t possible at the moment, we’ll take it into consideration.
