Simple Mention

A simple plugin that visually highlights mentions and suggests existing ones as you write (except in codeblocks).
The mention prefix can be customized and defaults to @.
Find all occurrences of a mention in the side pane and jump to the corresponding line in the document.
Distinguish your personal mentions from the others by a different color.

Filter your mentions by a phrase

Settings

You can:

• set the trigger phrase (@)
• set the color of the mentions (green)
• set the color of your own mentions (deeppink)
• set the name, how you want to mention yourself (Me)
• delete the cache (indexeddb)

Shortcuts

In edit mode

ctrl+space or ctrl+click on a mention, opens the right side pane with all occurrences of that mention.

In preview mode

When you click on a mention, the right side pane opens with all occurrences of that mention.

Known issues

• We need to restart Obsidian after
  • adjusting the trigger phrase for the changes to take effect.
  • changing the name of yourself for the changes to take effect.
  • ignoring a directory
  • deleting the cache
• Style could currently not be overridden by a template (simple fix)

Ideas

• Group mentions
  • eg. @group-x(@bob,@lisa)
  • usage: find all mentions of @bob and @lisa by searching for @group-x
• Multi select of mentions in the view
• Show sub bullet points
• own color for each "person"
