Other plugins

  • lazy-cached-vault-load - Reduces startup time on mobile to 2-3 seconds, even with a vault containing 30k+ notes.
  • reveal-folded - Adds a command that reveals the current file in the file explorer while collapsing all other items.
  • auto-folder-note-paste - Ensures your attachments are placed inside your note when pasting or using drag-and-drop by converting your note into a folder note.
  • folders-graph - Adds folders as nodes in graph views.
  • hide-index-files - Hides folder notes (index files) from the file explorer.
  • crosslink-advanced - Adds commands for managing ftags-oriented vaults: adding ftags, creating child notes, opening random unftagged file, etc.
  • virtual-dirs - Adds 'virtual' folder files or folder indexes. You can open and search for them, but they do not take up space and 'materialize' whenever you need a real folder note.
  • viewer-ftags - add ftags as chips on top of markdown/file editors/previews. And children as differently styled chips too!
  • git-annex-autofetch - Allows you to open annexed files that are not locally present as if they were on your device (essentially, an NFS/overlay-fs hybrid in Obsidian).

Contributing

Issues and patches are welcome. This plugin is designed to work with other plugins, and I will do my best to support this use case. However, I reserve the right to refuse support for any plugin at my discretion.
