Folder Management

Frontmatter

This section only appears when you have markdown links enabled globally in Obsidian settings.

  • Use markdown links in frontmatter: Enable markdown link format [text](path) for project and dependency links in frontmatter. Requires the obsidian-frontmatter-markdown-links plugin. When disabled (default), frontmatter uses wikilink format [[path]] which is natively supported by Obsidian.

Task Interaction

  • Double-click action: The action to perform when double-clicking a task card. Can be "Edit task", "Open note", or "No action".

Release Notes

  • View release notes: Opens a dedicated tab showing release notes for the current version. Release notes are displayed automatically after updating to a new version, and can also be accessed anytime via command palette or this settings button.
