How to promoted label only for children

[shirobachi]

Hello,

I would like to make a promoted label, but only for children of the note, not the note itself. Is there a way to do it?
I tried to name it with child: prefix, but it did not work ;/

Thanks in advance!

child: should do what you want, but this is a "copy inheritance" - these attributes are copied when a new note is created under the given parent.

You might also consider pattern to create a template with the promoted attributes and then create ~child:template=[your template].

The mistake is in the wrong order - it should be child: first, e.g. #child:label:myLabel=promoted,single,text

Yeah, that works! Thanks a lot!!

Hey @zadam,
I would like to ask for tip. I would like to have label definition only for direct children and to adding new label definition affect for notes made in the past? Is there a way to do this smart?

@shirobachi no. Normal inheritance works for old children, but does not have a way to limit depth. "copy" inheritance limits depth, but does not work automatically on old notes. You could use "bulk actions" to fill in the attributes to older notes though:

Thanks so much, I did not know about bulk action, that will work for me I think <3
