[FR] - Edit nested metadata

See original GitHub issue
    I've tried the version that implemented this issue and I can't understand what was really done.

The 2.6.7 release section says “Frontmatter editions now respect nested metadata”. This means that nested metadata won’t be messed up by the plugin or nested metadata will be supported by the plugin?

Because I thought the @kvietcong possible solution was accepted and implemented, where:

level1:
  level2:

would be considered as level1.level2 as the name field by the plugin.

When I create a field separating field levels by dot, the DB turns empty (error). image

When I try to create a field that already exists in DB image, only the level1 can be added image and the data is shown as json in DB: image. If this data is edited by plugin, the nested metadata in YAML will be messed up: image.

Is there another issue related to what I’ve described above?

There are two new configurations (currently just for text). The first will enable the nested behaviour. The second one will modify the actual id of your column for a nested one separated by commas.

Read and write its working correctly! The next step will be allow multiple fields of the same nested column. I am keeping working on it. It will takes time.

Problems to resolve

  • modify label of the column that only affects the nested one
  • allow multiple fields for the same column
  • enable the nested behaviour for text
  • enable the nested behaviour for numbers
  • enable the nested behaviour for select
  • enable the nested behaviour for tags
  • enable the nested behaviour for checkboxs
  • enable the nested behaviour for dates
  • enable the nested behaviour for date times
  • Allow change types for nested fields

THE problem to solve

Edit a nested key can not update that key into ALL the notes
