“New” button does not work in Table View when creating notes in a folder

[Daniilnm]

When I try to create a new note in a folder using the Table View, I click the New button and enter the note title, but the note is never actually created or saved. It simply does not appear in the folder. This issue does not occur in other views — creating new notes works correctly outside of Table View.

Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a folder in Table View. 2. Click the New button to create a new note. 3. Enter a title for the note. 4. Notice that the new note does not get created or appear in the folder.

Expected behavior: After clicking New and entering the note title, the note should be created and visible in the folder, as it works in other views.

Actual behavior: No new note is created or saved after entering the title in Table View.

Tried to reproduce this but wasn’t able to. Any debug information is appreciated. A fix was included in the patch for a potential issue but since the issue could not be reproduced, the issue fixed may not have been the issue here

this problem occurs randomly, a reboot helps, and apparently it doesn't appear until the next reboot.

I am running into this issue right now and happened out of nowhere (after the plug in working without a problem)

This is image of the folder existing within the Vault but not appearing within the Folder View. Even when I directly go ahead and write down a name for the a note it does not attach it onto the list view within the folder.

The second image is the Navigator view (first image is files view). Not sure how to fix this bug/issue ;-; Its been happening for like 2 days.

Fyi besides manually creating the file, the auto note creation that happens when you create a folder is also not working (hence why I am trying to manually add those notes).

Can you open the developer console and screenshot any errors that was outputted. I’m currently not able to reproduce this so any information is helpful thanks.

Sorry for my ignorance but how do I open the developer console?

Never mind I found it!

On Windows it’s Control-Shift-I and on Mac it’s Command-Option-I

Thanks, it doesn’t seem like there’s an issue in the crash logs, does anything appear in the logs after you try to create an item? Also, I just looked at the screenshots, can you be specific on which item is missing since I’m not able to deduce it. Are you referring to the folder note?

I am using the default vault as an example and the only plugin I downloaded there is the MAKE.MD one. This version with the console. I added the folder through this option- The image above I tried using the + New Item option within the space and created a folder by doing 'Number3Example/Examplez'. As you can see it adds it in the File view but (in the next image) the Navigation view shows a lack of it + the folder view itself.

Hope this is helpful ;-;
