Support Project Free Rangers Support

Project Free Rangers is the free-spirited brainchild of me (Jheanell Elliott). I'm an artist, mentor, and software architect by trade. When I'm not wrangling teams or large projects, I like to cobble together nifty side projects that I think are rad and provide them for free.

If you like any of the fun projects I develop and want to say an extra thank you:


Known Issues Known Issues

Slow loading in Live Preivew

In some vaults, Live Preview may take a second or two to render Note Tabs properly. This is not a bug with Note Tabs, but rather, a quirk of Live Preview when dealing with certain markdown. See forum discussions here.

This slow rendering doesn't happen often and will resolve itself once Obsidian triggers its own Live Preview rerender.
