YAML in Templater files can't be parsed

[johngarg]

Hi,

I use the popular Templater plugin to insert a link to today's daily note every time I make a new note. The template file looks like:

---
Links:
  - "[[<% tp.date.now("YYYY-MM-DD") %>]]"
---

This throws an error "Unable to parse YAML." from yaml-parse-string when calling a variety of functions.

Perhaps a simple fix is to be able to specify files to be ignored by obsidian.el?

Thanks!

Support for obsidian extensions is not a goal, but if you make it optional in some way to ignore it, that would be good
