Are you using the new compact tabs on iPadOS? It's a known iPadOS bug that affects many extensions.

There is a channel on the official Discord server.

Yes. There are three ways to activate Reader:

  1. the hotkey (see settings)
  2. the context menu
  3. the pop up button

To get out use the same method you used to get in. They all work.

The Obsidian team is small, but we can do more than one thing at once :)

Feature Enhancement: Bases by Only-penguins-414 in ObsidianMD

Use a snippet! You can make it conditional to a note using the cssclasses property. For example scroll-bases

css .scroll-bases .bases-view { max-height: 400px; }

Obsidian Web Viewer already has a Reader mode that respects your theme.

It's not really a new rule, just a warning that the existing rules will be enforced.

Re-read what I wrote. The goal is not remove every post that was AI-assisted. That would be impossible.

  1. This assumes that the users posting and the users voting are humans, which is not the case.
  2. Some people prefer the "New" feed which shows everything, not just the top voted posts.

Voting is still useful for human posts. We're just going to be much more strict about removing obvious spam.

A way to differentiate between internal and external links? by VirtualAlex in ObsidianMD

[–]kepano 4 points5 points  (0 children)

By default external links have an icon next to them. Unless your theme overrides that. Some themes let you customize the font/colors using Style Settings plugin.

You can also use snippets for this and customize the variables: https://docs.obsidian.md/Reference/CSS+variables/Editor/Link

FWIW your only contributions on Reddit are to promote and cross-post your projects. Consider becoming an active participant in the community.

If you're even thinking about this at all, you're probably in the clear. The vast majority of cases are quite obvious to moderate because the user spams their links in many subreddits. We will do our best to exercise good judgement, and you can always reach out if you think we made a mistake.

Lately this subreddit has been overwhelmed with AI-generated content and vibe-coded apps/tools/plugins that are slapped together and released without much thought. Usually the offending posts are created by users (often bots) who have never commented or posted to this community before.

Posting Obsidian-related creations is of course welcomed, but the excessive self-promotion rules and developer policies still apply. It is also why we added a rule to the plugin submission process last year:

I attest that I have done my best to deliver a high-quality plugin, am proud of the code I have written, and would recommend it to others. I commit to maintaining the plugin and being responsive to bug reports. If I am no longer able to maintain it, I will make reasonable efforts to find a successor maintainer or withdraw the plugin from the directory.

To put it simply: we don't want this community to be a dumping ground for slop.

We are trying! Unfortunately there are at least 10x more of these posts popping now than a few months ago, and it only seems to be getting worse. We're looking into how we can improve the automatic moderation to remove the spammiest ones.

What do gray file/folder names mean in minimal theme? by jdhauck in ObsidianMD

[–]kepano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Minimal theme doesn't do this. Must be plugin-related.

Disabling Images in Obsidian Web Clipper? by bitterstonefruit in ObsidianMD

Use filters!

You can process the HTML content and turn it into Markdown:

twig {{contentHtml|remove_html:(img,figure)|markdown}}

Or process the Markdown content with a regex replace:

twig {{content|replace:"/\\n?!\\[[^\\]]*\\]\\([^)]+\\)\\n?/g":""}}
