When you use the Obsidian Web Clipper to save a webpage, images are not saved locally — they remain as remote URLs. This plugin automatically downloads those images and replaces the remote URLs with local references.

Installation

Install from Obsidian Community Plugins: Auto Download Images After Web Clipping

Features

  • Automatically detects new web-clipped markdown files
  • Downloads all remote images in the background
  • Supports both Markdown image syntax (![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/chenxiccc/obsidian-auto-download-images-after-web-clipping/HEAD/url)) and HTML <img> tags
  • Hotlink bypass: Uses the page source URL (from frontmatter) as Referer to bypass CDN hotlink protection
  • Desktop only (requires Node.js https module)

Configuration

Folder Monitoring — By default, monitors the Clippings folder. You can add more folders.

Image Save Path — Four modes:

  • Follow Obsidian's attachment settings (default)
  • Create a subfolder named after the file
  • Custom subfolder relative to the file's directory
  • Custom path template (from vault root) — supports {date:FORMAT} and {notename} tokens, e.g. _global/assets/{date:YYYY-MM}

Image Filename Template — Customize the downloaded image filename with tokens:

  • {notename} — the note's basename
  • {index:NNN} — zero-padded index; the number of digits is the padding width and the numeric value is the start, e.g. {index:000} → 000,001,002… (start from 0) or {index:001} → 001,002,003… (start from 1)
  • {date:FORMAT} — download date, e.g. {date:YYYY-MM-DD}
  • The file extension is added automatically from the downloaded image's type

Default: {notename}-img-p{index:001} → e.g. My Note-img-p001.webp


中文

使用 Obsidian Web Clipper 剪藏网页时,图片不会保存到本地,仍然引用在线 URL。此插件会自动下载这些图片并替换为本地引用。

安装

从 Obsidian 社区插件市场安装:Auto Download Images After Web Clipping

功能

  • 自动检测新剪藏的 Markdown 文件
  • 后台下载文件中所有远程图片
  • 支持 Markdown 图片语法和 HTML <img> 标签
  • 防盗链破解:使用页面来源 URL(frontmatter 中的 source 字段)作为 Referer,绕过 CDN 防盗链
  • 仅桌面端(依赖 Node.js https 模块)

配置

文件夹监听 — 默认监听 Clippings 文件夹,可添加更多。

图片保存路径 — 四种模式:

  • 跟随 Obsidian 附件设置(默认)
  • 创建与文件同名的子文件夹
  • 文件所在目录下的自定义子文件夹
  • 自定义路径模板(从 vault 根目录开始)—— 支持 {date:格式} 和 {notename} 占位符,例如 _global/assets/{date:YYYY-MM}

图片文件名模板 — 用占位符自定义下载后的图片文件名:

  • {notename} —— 笔记名(不含扩展名)
  • {index:NNN} —— 补零序号;位数即补零宽度,数值即起始值。例如 {index:000} → 000,001,002…(从 0 开始);{index:001} → 001,002,003…(从 1 开始)
  • {date:格式} —— 下载日期,例如 {date:YYYY-MM-DD}
  • 文件扩展名根据下载图片的实际类型自动追加

默认:{notename}-img-p{index:001} → 例如 我的笔记-img-p001.webp
