The plugin supports folder notes, quick-preview mode, and breadcrumb navigation, making it easy to jump between folders and files efficiently..
The Waypoint plugin enhances your Obsidian experience by automatically creating and maintaining dynamic tables of contents for your folder notes. With real-time updates, it ensures every file and subfolder is seamlessly linked without manual effort. This plugin integrates folder structures into the graph view, making navigation more intuitive while offering fine control over which folders are treated as categories.

The Auto Template Trigger plugin streamlines the process of adding templates to new files in Obsidian. It automates template application or displays a template selector when creating a note, eliminating the need for manual triggering. Users can assign specific templates to individual folders, enabling automatic template application based on the folder where the note is created. The plugin prioritizes templates assigned to more specific folder paths, and a global template can be set for all new files if desired.
The Print plugin enhances Obsidian by providing an easy way to print individual notes or entire folders. Users can initiate the print action through the command palette, a ribbon icon, or by right-clicking a note or folder. It includes customizable settings such as adjusting font sizes, including note titles, and combining notes for seamless printing. The plugin also supports advanced customization via CSS snippets, allowing users to tailor the appearance of printed documents. Debug mode is available to preview and resolve styling issues, ensuring a polished output.
The Hierarchical Backlinks plugin brings a new layer of organization to Obsidian’s backlinking feature by displaying backlinks as a collapsible tree based on your folder structure. This is particularly useful for users who rely on a well-defined directory organization over tags, allowing them to see how documents connect within the hierarchy of their folders. Instead of the standard flat list of backlinks, this plugin provides a more structured view, making it easy to navigate and focus on specific reference groups. With clickable links to each referenced note, it enhances navigation and makes backlink management more intuitive for those who prefer a physical folder structure in their note-taking workflow.
The Simple Archiver plugin streamlines the process of organizing your Obsidian vault by moving files or entire folders into a designated archive directory. It retains the original folder structure by placing items in a mirrored relative path inside the archive. This helps declutter your active workspace while preserving context and organization for archived content. Users can initiate archiving through a command or a convenient file menu option. The plugin automatically creates the archive folder if it doesn't already exist, simplifying setup.
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 Generate Timeline plugin allows Obsidian users to visually organize and explore their notes in chronological order. It supports timeline creation based on folders, tags, or internal file links, helping users uncover temporal relationships across their content. Users can choose between an interactive timeline view or a structured Markdown output. The plugin scans for time attributes in note metadata, such as creation or custom date fields, and arranges entries accordingly.
The Enhance Copy Note plugin simplifies duplication of notes and folders in Obsidian by adding convenient commands to the command palette and file menu. It features a 'Copy active note' command that replicates the functionality of the file explorer's 'make a copy' option, allowing users to quickly duplicate the currently active note. Additionally, the plugin provides a 'Copy folder' command for duplicating an entire folder along with its contents, streamlining workflows that involve creating backups or reusing note structures.
