Adds commands to quickly add entries to INBOX and TIMELINE sections of notes

Add to Obsidian
  • Overview
  • Scorecard
  • Updates11

A simple Obsidian plugin that helps you organize notes with dedicated inbox and timeline sections. I made this to use with daily notes or project notes, to keep a running inbox and a running timeline of events.

Features

  • Add to Inbox: Add new headings under an "INBOX" section
  • Add to Timeline: Add timestamped entries under a "TIMELINE" section

Settings

Setting Description Default
Inbox heading text Text to search for when finding/creating inbox heading INBOX
Timeline heading text Text to search for when finding/creating timeline heading TIMELINE

Usage Example

Starting with a note:

# My Note

Some content here.

After using "Add to Inbox" command:

# My Note

Some content here.

## INBOX

### Your new inbox item

Thereafter "Add to Inbox" will add a new child heading under INBOX

After using "Add to Timeline" command:

# My Note

Some content here.

## INBOX

### Your new inbox item

## TIMELINE

### 2025-04-03 14:30 Your timeline entry

Thereafter "Add to Timeline" will add a new timestamped child heading under INBOX

Installation

  1. Download latest release and extract to .obsidian/plugins

How It Works

The plugin finds (or creates) your inbox/timeline headings and inserts new entries. It preserves section hierarchy and places the cursor for immediate typing.
