Templater file module does not support the concurrent creation of files about templater HOT 4 CLOSED

Wild guess: You are running into trouble because Templater does not create a new tp-object when you call tp.file.create_new, so there are no seperate instances of tp and thus tp.file.title is not scoped differently per file.
However, I do not understand your template to begin with - why call that template file recursively when you are iterating over all folders anyway? What is the purpose of using both the for-loop and recursion?

To achieve what you are trying to do (maybe? possibly? who knows?), why not just use the loop to create the files and parse the content like this:

<%*
var folders = app.vault.getAllLoadedFiles().filter(x => x instanceof tp.obsidian.TFolder);
for (i in folders) {
   var folder = folders[i];
   var file = app.vault.getFileByPath(`${folder.path}/${folder.name}.md`);
   if (folder.parent !== null && file === null) {  // avoid duplicate generation
      tp.file.create_new(`Title: ${folder.name}`, folder.name, false, folder);
   }
}
-%>

Thanks for your reply. Does this mean that Templater has no plans to support recursion?

Templater does support recursion. The Templater file module does not support the concurrent creation of files. If you create the files in sequence, the template works fine. There are no plans to adjust how this works, unless someone wants to volunteer to try to fix this.

Title: <% tp.file.title %>
<%*
var folders = app.vault.getAllLoadedFiles().filter(x => x instanceof tp.obsidian.TFolder);
for (i in folders) {
   var folder = folders[i];
   var file = app.vault.getFileByPath(`${folder.path}/${folder.name}.md`);
   if (folder.parent !== null && file === null) {  // avoid duplicate generation
      // ADD AWAIT BELOW
      await tp.file.create_new(tp.file.find_tfile('template'), folder.name, false, folder);
   }
}
-%>
