What I would like to do is have something a capture template string similar to %^t, but with a custom date format string, e.g. %^<%Y/%m/%d>. Is this possible in some way? I was using org-capture-put because that is how org-capture-set-target-location uses it for the file+datetree+prompt method. best, Erik -- Sent from my free software system .
