Better Link Clicker

An Obsidian plugin that modifies the default click behavior of bidirectional links.

Directly clicking on a link no longer redirects you, but instead edits the link (in live mode).

When a user clicks on a link that does not have a note below it, a confirmation window is displayed before a new note is created.

Both of the above features can be configured in the settings panel.

Modifier clicks

This plugin intercepts normal link clicks so you can edit links without navigating.

When you use Obsidian's modifier-click behavior to open a link in another pane (tab/split/window), the plugin respects that. For example, Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Click (or the equivalent on macOS) will open the link in a new window.

Supported link types

The plugin currently handles the following link syntaxes in the editor (especially Live Preview tokenized text):

Behavior notes

• Jump only with modifier applies to all handled link types above.
• Open link at new tab only applies to internal note navigation.
• External URLs always open as external links (system/browser behavior), not as Obsidian internal tabs.
