"change_case" for tags isn't working

[alltagsverstand]

Don't know if this might be a bug or if I am just doing something wrong:

when I change "extensions.mdnotes.placeholder.tags" to convert tags to lowercase, this doesn't have any effect after batch export - tags still appear as #Tag instead of #tag

The complete line looks like this in my setting:

{"content":"{{field_contents}}", "field_contents": "#{{content}}", "link_style": "no-links", "list_separator":" ", "change_case":"lower", "remove_spaces": "true"}

I had the same problem as you! It turns out it's an error in the documentation rather than an error with the code. In the JSON, it's actually looking for the key "text_case" rather than "change_case". So, in order to make your setting work, it would have to look like the following:

{"content":"{{field_contents}}", "field_contents": "#{{content}}", "link_style": "no-links", "list_separator":" ", "text_case":"lower", "remove_spaces": "true"}

made a little pull request for this: #159

@jacob-underwood thanks for this solution! I think there's a typo in the code you shared....

"list_separator":" ", "text_case" should be "list_separator": ", ", "text_case" :

{"content":"{{bullet}} Tags: {{field_contents}}", "field_contents": "#{{content}}", "link_style": "no-links", "list_separator": ", ", "text_case":"lower", "remove_spaces": "true"}

At least, that's what I needed to edit to make it work for me!
