# Day Notes

A common pattern in note-taking is that a lot of notes will be centered around a certain date - e.g. you have some tasks which needs to be done on a certain date, you have meeting minutes from a certain date, you have your thoughts etc. and it all revolves around a date on which they occurred. For this reason, it makes sense to create a certain "day workspace" which will centralize all those notes relevant for a certain date.

For this, Trilium provides a concept of "day note". Trilium semi-automatically generates a single note for each day. Under this note you can save all those relevant notes.

<h2>Week Note and Quarter Note</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>Week and quarter notes are disabled by default, since it might be too
|
||||||
|
much for some people. To enable them, you need to set <code>#enableWeekNotes</code> and <code>#enableQuarterNotes</code> attributes
|
||||||
|
on the root calendar note, which is identified by <code>#calendarRoot</code> label.
|
||||||
|
Week note is affected by the first week of year option. Be careful when
|
||||||
|
you already have some week notes created, it will not automatically change
|
||||||
|
the existing week notes and might lead to some duplicates.</p>

<h2>Date pattern</h2>
|
<h2>Naming pattern</h2>
|
||||||
|
<p>You can customize the title of generated journal notes by defining a <code>#datePattern</code>, <code>#weekPattern</code>, <code>#monthPattern</code>, <code>#quarterPattern</code> and <code>#yearPattern</code> attribute
|
||||||
|
on a root calendar note (identified by <code>#calendarRoot</code> label).
|
||||||
|
The naming pattern replacements follow a level-up compatibility - each
|
||||||
|
level can use replacements from itself and all levels above it. For example, <code>#monthPattern</code> can
|
||||||
|
use month, quarter and year replacements, while <code>#weekPattern</code> can
|
||||||
|
use week, month, quarter and year replacements. But it is not possible
|
||||||
|
to use week replacements in <code>#monthPattern</code>.</p>
