The daily notes collections don’t seem to work as described in the Knowledge Base for me. I can’t find a File > Make this the Daily Notes Collection menu option, while I can find the File>Make Collection General. I was able to click on the Collection Settings checkbox to make a collection a daily notes collection.
Good catch! Sorry about the misdirection! I actually had started out with that functionality, then realized a second easily accessible collection should be a general notes collection, and not necessarily (although possibly) a daily notes collection. I will fix the documentation in the next release! Thanks for the feedback!
