The Clear Unused Images plugin is a game-changer for Obsidian users who want to keep their vaults organized and clutter-free. This plugin automatically scans your vault for unused images, comparing them with the links in your markdown notes. If it finds any unused images, it deletes them, freeing up space and reducing visual noise. With three options for deleted image destinations - move to Obsidian trash, system trash, or permanent deletion - you can choose the approach that suits you best. You can also exclude specific folders from the scan using a simple comma-separated list. The plugin is easy to use, with a ribbon icon and command palette options available.
The Janitor plugin helps users manage their Obsidian vault by identifying and removing unnecessary files. It detects orphan files, such as unreferenced media and attachments, as well as empty files that contain only whitespace. Users can set size limits to identify large files for potential deletion and configure expiration dates for notes, ensuring outdated content is managed effectively.
The File Cleaner plugin helps you efficiently manage and declutter your Obsidian vault by identifying and removing empty files and unused attachments. It detects files with 0 bytes or those containing only spaces and line breaks, along with unused media attachments such as images and PDFs. Users can customize how deletions are handled, with options to move files to the system trash, an Obsidian-specific trash folder, or permanently delete them.
The Remove Empty Folders plugin streamlines folder management in Obsidian by identifying and removing empty folders from your vault. Users can select specific folders in the File Explorer and execute the cleanup operation via a right-click context menu. For safety, the plugin moves deleted folders to the `.trash` folder within the vault, allowing users to review and recover any removed contents if needed. While effective, the plugin may require multiple executions to fully clear all empty folders resulting from prior deletions. It is advisable to back up your data before use to avoid unintended data loss.
The Note archiver plugin helps keep your Obsidian workspace organized by providing an easy way to move notes to an archive folder. Users can archive files via a command, editor menu, or file menu button. The plugin allows customization of the archive location and can organize files by grouping them based on the year or month of archiving. This is particularly useful for managing outdated or less frequently used notes, keeping your workspace clean and efficient.
The PDF Paste plugin improves the process of copying text from PDFs by automatically cleaning up formatting issues such as unwanted newlines, broken line breaks, and hyphenation. It ensures that pasted text integrates smoothly into notes without requiring manual corrections. The plugin provides a quick-access command and allows users to set a custom hotkey for efficient pasting.
