A bug report and its bugfix in one pull request? You're a dream contributor, thank you! 💚 I've tested the changes and they do seem to solve the race condition.

The onModify() method just needs a few changes to gel better with the existing code:

• Define the method closer to where it's being used. I'd paste it underneath onExternalSettingsChange()
• Specify a void return type
• Rename abstractFile back to tAbstractFile (it's named this way on 14 other lines)
• Rename the method from onModify() to onFileModify() for clarity

I'd also remove the dataview:metadata-change callback completely, because that callback runs whenever Dataview updates its own metadata cache, which can happen thousands of times when you open a large vault. You can watch this happening if you console.log the callback.

Hi, thanks for the review! Those changes sound good, I'll apply them later today.

I went ahead and pushed the changes above to your fork before merging 🚀

Thanks so much for testing and contributing this!

Hey - sorry I didn't do the requested changes, work & life have a habit of being real busy suddenly

You're fine! I know all about that struggle too, don't even sweat it 💚
