Hey there

I'm getting the "unable to access literature note. Please check that the literature note folder exists, or update the CItations Plugin settings." notification, despite having a simple folder named "References" in my project. The citation database path is working great, all my literature is loaded and accessable. However I'm not able to use that at all, which is quite unfortunate.

I already followed multiple instructions as for example suggested here: #223

Thanks for sharing that you've tried the solutions in that issue. Since the references are loaded, I would agree that its a problem with the literature note folder somehow. I would assume you've already double-checked that the folder name is exactly the same between the folder structure and the plugin settings, as I can replicate the issue by doing that.

Does the problem persist if you leave the literature note folder setting blank? That would create the literature notes in the root of the Vault.

Hallo,
Forgot to update the issue: I just reinstalled the plugin and that worked wonders. Thank you anyway!

Hello,
I faced a similar issue with the error message "Unable to access literature note. Please check that the literature note folder exists, or update the Citations plugin settings.", and tried all the suggested solutions in this thread and others but nothing worked, until I realized there was a typo in Literature note content template (I had a missing bracket, {{title} instead of {{title}}). When I fixed the typo it immediately worked perfectly again!

Perhaps there should be a different error message alerting to a possible typo like this, or just a caution note about this near the Literature note content temple settings.
