Hi Obsidian legends!

I’m trying to find a way to do this:

  1. I type /@PersonsName
  2. Obsidian recognises /@PersonsName is a person because of the @ symbol
  3. Wraps in a hyperlink: [[/@PersonsName]]
  4. Creates a templated note in a specific folder e.g. /people

Is something like this possible?

I do something like this:

  • Today I spoke to [[people/colleagues/Mary|Mary]] about the upcoming work trip

What this does is create a Note called Mary under people/colleagues, and instead of showing the full path, just shows Mary in the frontend.
