Obsidian plugin that automatically links every newly created note to the day's daily note, weaving temporal connections into your graph without manual upkeep.

How it works

When you create a note, Daily Note Linker finds (or creates) today's daily note and upserts a wiki link in a configurable frontmatter property:

---
notes:
  - "[[my new note]]"
  - "[[another note from today]]"
---

Renames are handled by Obsidian's native link tracking — no separate bookkeeping.

Install

Community catalog: Settings → Community plugins → Browse → search "Daily Note Linker".

Beta via BRAT: install BRAT, then add nhomble/obsidian-daily-link.
