QuickAdd Release Notes - Version 1.16.0

I'm thrilled to announce QuickAdd 1.16.0, featuring a complete redesign of the suggester system that capturing links and tags lightning-fast, and critical fixes for the Templater integration.

🚀 Complete Suggester System Redesign

The suggester system has been rebuilt from the ground up to deliver blazing-fast file search with rich context and improved accessibility.

It now also searches by heading, alias, and blocks which will help you find the exact file you're looking for.
When you use the heading link, it'll link directly to the heading.

File and Tag Search

• Fuzzy search powered by Fuse.js finds what you're looking for, even with typos

• Smart scoring prioritizes files based on:

  • Same folder location (files in your current folder appear first)
  • Recently accessed files (within the last day)
  • Exact alias matches
  • Shared tags with your current file

• Heading suggestions - Type # to search through all headings in your vault

• Block reference suggestions - Type #^ to find specific blocks

• Alias-first search - Files are now found by their aliases with higher priority

• Relative path shortcuts - Use ./ and ../ for quick navigation

• Rich visual indicators - Colored borders and status pills show file context at a glance

Improved format syntax writing experience

I've made major improvements to the experience of writing format syntax in the Capture template.
It no longer interrupts you, should be more robust, and is more 'intelligent'!

🔧 Critical Templater Integration Fixes

Fixed: Async Prompts Now Work Perfectly with "Create File If It Doesn't Exist"

Previously, when using Templater's tp.system.prompt() with QuickAdd's "Create file if it doesn't exist" feature, template commands would remain unprocessed. This has been completely fixed!

Before:

<%* await tp.system.prompt("Enter date:") %> // Would show as raw code

Now:

2025-06-23 // Correctly processes the prompt and shows the result

Fixed: Double-Execution of Templater Commands

Some users experienced Templater prompts appearing twice. This frustrating bug has been eliminated through a complete rework of the capture pipeline.
