With my Daily Notes workflow it works great now. But I still have a request for an improvement:
For an overview of when I talked to whom on the phone or that I did a task last Thursday, the output of the weekday is useful.

For this I think 2 alternativ possibilities:

(1)
additional entry in the settings:
"Show first alias if available".

My daily Notes look like this by example :

---
aliases:
- "2023-05-08 Mo"
week: [[2023-w19]]
month: [[2023-05]]
---

CONTENT...

Then this alias is shown in the side pane instead of the filename.

(2) alternatively
additional entry in the settings:
"Date Formatstring for showing in Sidepane".

Then the custom format will be shown in the sidepane instead of the file name of the daily note.

Examples:
grafik

Is there a possibility to add one of these variants?
(I would prefer variant (2))

I think both of these are technically possible, but I doubt that there is demand for (2), since I think that many users will customize the daily note titles themselves as they wish.

Regarding (1), I haven't looked into getting frontmatter yet, so it will take some time.
However, I would like to use frontmatter for other functions, so I may be able to implement it eventually.

In the meantime, as an easily implementable alternative, I would like to add the day of the week, week number, etc. to the information that can be displayed next to the file name (in the next version, this will be easily toggled from right-clicking on the settings icon).

In v1.1.0, the day of the week, etc. can be displayed with the note title. You can toggle it by right clicking on the settings icon. Hope this helps.
