Re: [Zim-wiki] Discuss wish: Page templates
Hi, I have a suggestion for this possible feature: - store templates in ~/.config/zim/templates/ - store default templates also in this dir Initially I would agree with Vlastimil: show templates just like other pages in the main tree -- because "everything is a file". But if that's not going to happen... well I could at least customize the date format to the one that I like (without having to modify files outside of $HOME) :-) Just a suggestion.

For sure we need some kind of tree view for Trash, as it can contain a sub-tree. With the proposal to have a separate side-pane view for this it would have it's own tree, which may be more clearly separated from the rest of the index. > The templates would ideally be available when creating a new page.
