I’ve merged @fuzzy.beach’s recent feature request with a previous one from a while back.
We had an internal discussion about this, and have decided to add this along with an improvement to templates. So once you create a new card, and before you type, there will be an option to convert the current card to a daily card (filling out the title etc.). This will be implemented alongside customisable templates as well so you can configure and add your own templates with tags, colors and date variables.
