"Trigger Templater on new file creation" template rendering fails when template only has frontmatter

[muya]

Plugin information (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS 26.0.1
• Templater version: 2.16.2
• Obsidian version: v1.9.14
• Templater settings:
  • Trigger Templater on new file creation: "On"

Describe the bug

Given this template:

---
tags: 
- my-tag
- wk-<% tp.date.now("YYYY-WW") %>
created_on: '<% tp.file.creation_date("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss Z") %>'
---

And we've set it as the Daily note "Template file location"

When the daily note gets created, the content from tp.* doesn't get rendered.

If the template has additional content, e.g.

---
tags: 
- my-tag
- wk-<% tp.date.now("YYYY-WW") %>
created_on: '<% tp.file.creation_date("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss Z") %>'
---

This is some extra content

It renders correctly.

Expected behavior

Actual Result

---
tags: 
- my-tag
- wk-<% tp.date.now("YYYY-WW") %>
created_on: '<% tp.file.creation_date("YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss Z") %>'
---

Expected

---
tags: 
- my-tag
- wk-2025-43
created_on: '2025-10-25 09:01:23 +03:00'
---

Same bug. Latest version of Obsidian and Templater. Android app.
Adding a script tp.file.cursor in the first line after the properties or any content helps.
