@Xanaus (Private)#9249:
Q: How did you add the #### weight#### in your frontmatter?
Ans: You can add anything in your frontmatter and add it to your template. If you have frotmatter that you want to reuse, you need to find a template for it and manually add a template using a syntax using the Apply template command. You can also attach a template to your schema and Dendron will auto apply that template when you create a note that matches a pattern that is recognized in the schema.
