Strip Images

dwSundwSun45 downloads

Right-click a note to remove all image embeds; delete image files that are referenced only by that note (moved to .trash).

Add to Obsidian
  • Overview
  • Scorecard
  • Updates2

Right-click a Markdown note → 移除图片 to strip every image embed from that note. Image files that are referenced only by that note are moved to .trash/ (folder structure preserved); images shared with other notes keep their files and only the embed is removed.

Behavior

  • Detects both ![[wiki]] and ![](markdown) embeds, including network URLs like ![](https://example.com/x.png).
  • Network / unresolvable embeds: the embed text is removed, no file touched.
  • Shared images (referenced by ≥ 2 notes): only the embed is removed.
  • Solo images (referenced only by the current note): file moved to .trash/<original-folder>/<name>. Collisions get a 1, 2, ... suffix.
  • A confirm modal shows embed count + file count before anything happens.
  • References are detected across .md files only.

About
Strip image embeds from a note via the right‑click "移除图片" command, detecting wiki ![[...]] and Markdown ![](...) embeds as well as network URLs. Move images used only in that note to .trash (preserving folder paths); keep files used elsewhere and remove only embed text for network/unresolvable images, with a confirmation modal showing embed and file counts.
