Conditional Properties

🎯 What Changed
The plugin now detects H1 headings only immediately after YAML frontmatter, completely ignoring first-level headings that appear in the middle or end of documents.

🔧 Problem Solved
Before: The plugin considered any H1 in the document as the "title", even if it was on line 500. This caused issues where:

Files with H1 headings in internal sections were treated as having a title
The IF first level heading does not exist rule didn't work correctly
There was no consistency about which H1 represented the note's title
Now: Only the H1 immediately after YAML frontmatter is considered the "title". Example:

---
type: note
---

# This Is The Title  ← ✅ Detected

Content...

## Section

More content...

# Another Heading  ← ❌ Ignored (not the title)

⚠️ Breaking Change
This change may affect existing files:

Files with H1 not immediately after YAML: Will be treated as "no title" and will receive a new H1 at the beginning if rules are configured
Files with multiple H1s: Only the first one (after YAML) will be considered; others will be ignored
✨ Benefits
Consistent behavior: The "title" is always in the same place
Rules work correctly: notExists and isEmpty now reliably detect files without titles
Configuration independent: Completely ignores Obsidian's "Show inline title" setting
More predictable: You know exactly where the plugin will add/modify the title
🔍 Technical Details
Removed dependency on MetadataCache.headings
Direct file content reading with vault.read()
Position verification of H1 relative to frontmatter
Ensures only whitespace can exist between YAML and H1
📝 Primary Use Case
Perfect for vaults using plugins like Granola that create notes with structured content but no initial title, allowing Conditional Properties to automatically add titles using {filename} or {date} placeholders.

🚀 How to Update
Reload the plugin in Obsidian (Settings → Community plugins → Reload)
Review your rules - files with H1 headings not at the top may now be processed
Test with "Run conditional rules on current file" command
