An Obsidian plugin that toggles fold/unfold on list items only, without touching headings.
Obsidian's built-in "Fold all" command folds both headings and lists. This plugin gives you list-specific folding, which is useful when you work with deeply nested outlines and want headings to stay expanded.
Commands
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| Toggle fold top-level lists | Folds or unfolds only root-level list items in the current note |
| Toggle fold all list levels | Folds or unfolds every nested list item recursively |
Both commands detect the current fold state: if most target items are folded, they unfold; otherwise they fold.
Usage
- Open the command palette (
Ctrl/Cmd + P) - Search for "List Fold"
- Run either command
Assign hotkeys in Settings > Hotkeys for quick access.
Compatibility
- Works alongside the Outliner plugin
- Requires Obsidian desktop (uses CodeMirror 6 editor APIs)

About
Toggle folding for list items only, leaving headings expanded so you can collapse outlines without hiding section headers.
