I love markdown, but doing tables and markdownis not the best experience.Maybe I can show you that.So this is a brand-new note.And the way that you would normally create tableswith markdown is you use this pipe character,you have, like the column one name here,and then column two name,and then you would have to go to the next lineand then do this, and then three, things like that, and then three more dashesand then a pipe character,and then it actually makes it into a table.So then, for each one you would have to do,this is column one value, and then another pipe,and then Col two value.So that's how it usually works,and it makes it into a table when you render it.There's an easier way,and that's with advanced tables.With advanced tables enabled, so you can do the same thing, Name one, Name two,and then you just hit Enter,and it's nicely formatted it for you.And then you can type something really along here,and then you Tab,and it went over to the next column alreadyso you didn't have to do the pipe yourself.You also notice that it adjustedso that it is nicely formatted.So even if there's something here when you hit Enter,you see how that pipe is kind of,because of the white space next to what I typed, it's kind of not in linewith the rest of the Name two pipes.When I hit Enter,then it's just like formats it really nicely.Such a simple thing.But yeah, I use tables a lot in markdownand so I always have that enabled.Banners is a plugin that's really just for TTRPG.I mean you can use it for other things.It basically does the Notion thing,where a Notion you can set like a coverfor your notebook or whateverand it just has this nice image. So you can use it for anything,but I mainly use it for TTRPGs.Better Word Count is a funny one.Okay, this is not just for TTRPG,but I also do use it for TTRPGs.So this is a way to kind of highlight some textand then it'll show you how many words were in that text.I actually use this to track how many wordsmy character does for the sending spell,but I also use it for things like when I respond to ACFP, a call for papers or a call for speakers to presentations.They usually want an abstract that is, you know,exactly 150 words or whatever it isand that's what I use it for just to be able to seeexactly how many words is in each one.I have the Buttons plugin as well.This is a little hit or miss.I've found that it is stable in some thingsbut it isn't stable in others.So for example, in my TTRPG one, I have a session button here and it used to work,but for some reason it no longer doesand I'm not entirely sure why.One thing that I found out was this thinginexplicably sometimes just gets hard codedand so I actually haven't been using it in this contextand I've just been using templates to add new sessions.However, in some contexts, like for this Kickstarter I've Backed,if I click on a new crowdfunding project,it works really well.New project here, yeah.So that button worked really welland I'm not entirely sure why.This behavior is kind of talked about.I can't remember where I read or heardthe developer Shabegom talk about Buttons,but they did say that they're working on something new.They are aware of some of the flakiness that surrounds Buttons,but the thing is like being able to physically clicka button and have something happen is just so coolthat I still put up with its quirks.ChatGPT MD.Okay, so I have this and text generatoras the AI kind of plugins.I do use them sometimes,but I am also still afraid of sending information outonto the internet and I find myself being really paranoid.Whenever I use it, I open up like the developer tools on the side hereand I look at the networkand see like what is it actually sending to the internet.And honestly, I think most people should do the same.I think that there are a lot of AI apps in Obsidianthat are sending more informationto other people's servers that you don't controlthan you might think or that they might disclose.So I keep this disabled,I probably should just delete it here because I do all of my kind of AI experimentationin test vaults now anyway.So there you go.I have 48 plugins, less than 50.I do have Checklist.I have this disabled right nowbecause I don't really do task managementin Obsidian anymore.I have done different iterations of this.I know the tasks plugin is super popular.I use checklist when I was using it for task management.Sometimes I still like it, but most of the time I don't so I just keep this disabled.The Copy button for code blocks.Okay, I can show this quickly.I don't think I've ever talked about thisand it's occasionally asked about in videos.So if I go to regular expressions.So this is a code block written in Python.So I'm gonna actually show two plugins and one in this.One that I haven't mentioned yet, but while we're here.The first is this copy all button.So if I click on this one,I can see that it's copied to clipboardand then what I can do is I can put this in my IDE or wherever else I wanted it and it's just, yeah,I could like go into it and then highlight it, you know,and then copy it.But it's just easier sometimes to just do it with a click.The second one is Editor Syntax Highlight.I also get questions about thisbecause, and we're kind of preempting it a little bit.So if I disable this,this is what the Python actually looks like.Even if I'm setting Python as a language in the code block, it's just kind of, you know, bland.But since you're setting the language anyway,Editor Syntax Highlight lets you highlight itaccording to that language a syntax,the way that you might expect from an IDE.So if we go into that again,now it's like all nice and colored.And by the way, this works for frontmatter as well.Woo, sneak peek.This is an Obsidian feature that I'm testing right now.But it also does this cool highlight where it just has the propertyin a different color than everything else.So I find that useful,especially since I have quite a few notesthat have code blocks in them.It just helps to kind of distinguishbetween each thing and helps me understand it.Then there's Dataview.I have talked about this so much.Still super useful.It's in my top 10 plugins.Wouldn't be without it.Dice Roller.I've also mentioned quite a bit.I use it to actually roll dice in TTRPGs.I also use it to do things like randomly show me a note that has the TVZ or to be processed.Tag for me and it just is a great toolfor sparking randomness.I use it to roll on random tablesthat I've put together for like test heuristicsor things like that.Lots of things you could do with Dice Roller.I talked about Editor Syntax Highlight already.Now Etherpad is something that's an interesting conceptbut I think is not quite there.One of the issues of it is that it relies on this other project called Etherpad,which you have to host separately.So I host Etherpadon my own instance in Digital Ocean.Then I connect that instance to this Etherpad pluginand I can send specific Obsidian notes to Etherpad.It's supposed to be kind of like Google Docs.In practicality, it's not as good as Google Docs.It doesn't really do comments as well.And while it does do two-way sank,it's not as robust as I would like. If you're a Patreon,I already did a Patreon exclusive video on this.So if you'd like to join my Patreonand see exclusive videos,then you can click on the link up there.I've also talked about ExcaliBrain a lot and Excalidraw.These two are kind of relatedbecause ExcaliBrain uses Excalidraw, and requires it.Excalidraw is a separate app actually,but the Obsidian Excalidraw pluginin particular brings that functionalityof that app into Obsidian.It is basically Canvas but on steroids. It can do way more than Canvas can.You can put images.You can draw freehand.It does some OCR.You can do Mind Maps.You can, you know, link to certain parts of an imagethe way you would a section of a note.So many things you can do with it.Check out the video that I've created on thatand the video on ExcaliBrain,which builds upon Excalidrawand instead turns it into a supercharged graph view. So both of those I use quite heavily.Fantasy Calendar is also something that I really love.Fun fact is that I started using it for TTRPGs.But I actually use it more for my content calendar now.So I even have a shortcut for it.This is like how I track everything that I'm doingin my personal life and also at work.It's color coded.There are some issues with like text wrapping. Jeremy, maybe you could fix that.But I still haven't found anything that is as goodand as simple to use.Ooh, Fantasy Statblocks is a good one.This is another TTRPG-only pluginand I use it for monsters and also for NPCs sometimes.I've shown that in a few TTRPG videos,so I won't show that here.Hider is a very simple one.It's by kepano, who is Stephan Ango, the CEO of Obsidian.He created the minimal theme, and a lot of his work is based on this ideaof like less is more.And so I actually really like Hiderand it does a very simple thing.It gets rid of certain elements on the screen.So I used it to get rid of this toolbar that was here,that was so uglythat was constantly filling up with different plugins.I don't like to use it.And as a result, I think my Obsidian workspacejust looks so much cleaner and less distracting. Initiative Tracker I still use heavily for TTRPGs.I've also talked about that.Kanban is something that I still use.I have tried to use projects.I'm trying to migrate everything into projects.However, project still doesn't have like a full Kanban viewwhere you can drag and drop the cards.And so I'm in this weird position where I am doing both.I am using the frontmatter for both right now. So I'm using the frontmatter for projectsand I am also using a Kanban card board,so I always have this enabled as well.List Callouts, so simple but also so good.It's by MG Myers.And it is just so that if I open a new note here,it is kind of like an abbreviated version of a callout.So typically you would insert a callout like thisand this is what it would look like. You can also do List Callout.So if it's within a list,you can't really add a callout in itbecause there's like a dash in front of it.And so instead, what you can do with this plugin enabledis do things like, This is a great idea.So I have an Obsidian List Callout plugin pageand here are the things that you can do.So all of it is based on just using something after the bullet pointso that you can kind of style it in a little bitof a different way.This doesn't show up in publish though, so there's that.But within Obsidian, it's pretty cool.Okay, we've got to move a little bit faster herebecause there's a lot more to go.Okay, Meld Encrypt.This is something that I use really for very private noteslike therapy sessions and coaching sessions.And it's a way to basically password protect your vaultand there is no way out. Like there's no forgot your password.If you forget it, then you've forgotten it.So it's a good way to encrypt things.Minimal Theme Settings is a plugin that is basedaround the minimal theme itselfand I turn it on when I go back to minimal,but I'm on AnuPpuccin right now.Note Refactor is a really good onewhere I think I've shown it beforeand it lets you kind of have a very long noteand then just highlight something and say,okay, create a new note and the first heading on my highlightshould be the file name of that note.Just a little bit of a quality of life improvementwhen you're refactoring your notes, which I do a lot.Novel word count.This is like, I like this plugin,but it is just very difficult to deal with sometimes.It makes my vault quite slow.So I only enable it in certain situationswhen I really need to know the word or page countwithin my vault.It is pretty cool when it works. I just wish it were a little bit more performantfor a larger vaults.Oh, this is a plugin that I was working onas a way to learn about plugins.I don't have anything to demonstrate right now,so I kind of forgot about this pluginand I don't really have something good to show you.Okay, maybe I can show you kind of like an ideaof how it works.This is a plugin that I made in an effort to learnabout how to make plugins.But like many, many things that I do, I never kind of really finished itand I'd like to go back to it at some point.But at its base, it's a TTRPG-related plugin,specifically for D&D Beyond.I still have one group that uses D&D Beyond.And I'm a healer and I like for the HP of different peopleto be updated within my initiative tracker.I know, it's super niche,but it was like something cool that I was doing.So for example, my character Scura,which is what it's set to do right now, has an HP of 51. I know because she just had a long rest.So what I could do, what I would normally dois go in here and then heal her up to full.However, I was looking for a way to do that for different,for multiple people at onceand also to not have to manually do it.So instead, there is a command that I can do,which right now is that.And it says Updated Scura HP 51 out of 51,and you'll see that this one was updated too. So my idea was that it could update the entire party's HPand maybe other things as well.Like it can actually also change, you know,the AC or or whatever based on what is on D&D Beyond.So it's more like a learning project for me.But there you go.That's a plugin that I have.Here's Obsidian Leaflet.It was supposed to be for maps,but I really only use it for like TTRPG maps. So I think I've shown it before,but here's what it looks like.It is an interactive map.So I provided the image,but then I can also like hover over any of theseand then link them to a certain other note.So for example, if I click on that,it goes to the Bromkiln Hills.And I can even have my own custom image.So this is an NPC in our game and I'm tracking her movements or her parties movements just so that I know where she is.I've got TFTHacker's BRAT plugin.Oh, this is undersold really.It's not really useful unless you like to beta test plugins,but this essentially makes it really easyto try out, you know, alpha versions of pluginseven before they're actually officially released.I do this a lot and so I have a whole bunch of plugins here that I have set up to work with it.There's also this Strange New Worlds plugin.This is interesting also by TFTHacker.I like it, but I found that for some of my notesthere was definitely a performance hit.So I don't always enable it,but let's go ahead and enable thatjust to show you what it looks like.So every link here is parsedand there's a number that's shown next to it.That number is basically the number of backlinks,so number of other notes that link to this note. So there are 69 other notes where I've mentioned Wally,and this one pops up like a little hover windowwhere I can go over where exactly those notes were.So it can be pretty handy sometimes.And you know what?I haven't tried this in a while.I know I tried an earlier versionand it did have performance updates,but this page is pretty link heavyand I'm not seeing the slowness that I saw before.So maybe I'll actually just leave it enabled. TFTHacker does some really cool stuff.So back here, Omnisearch.Look, I tried it.It's supposed to be a better search engine for your notes.I found it slow and confusingand the UI was very cluttered.I mean, I'm not entirely sure I've installed itbut not enabled it right now.Omnivore is another one that I really want to get into.It's basically a Readwise alternative.I love that it is open sourceand I would really want to switch to it, except that at this point,Readwise just has so many integrations.I believe Omnivore only has a limited amount of thingsthat it can process highlights for.Like it can't do podcasts or tweets or anything like that.So this is something that I'm keeping an eye on,but I'm not using actively.Outliner is something that I installed right awaybecause I came from RoamResearchand I was really missing the ability to work outlines the way that you can with RoamResearch.So I always enable that and it does things likeyou can, in a list, you can kind of move somethingup and down.So like 91 is there now and I've moved it before 90,so I'm just doing that with keyboard shortcuts.It also does this thingwhere it has like an indentation lineso that you know when you have a lot of things like thisand you're not sure which ones are lined up, those indentation lines,which Roam had by default, shows you where you are.And then you can also independently fold themso that you can fold this entire thingif you just want the parent oneor you can just fold at this level.So it does a lot of cool things like thatthat I enjoy with bullet points.All right, Periodic Notes.I have I think two full videos talking abouthow I use Periodic Notes.Periodic Notes is a plugin that lets you create notes according to different formats for regular reviews.So daily, weekly, monthly, and even quarterly.It can even let you have multiple sets of those.So you can have like one for personal, one for work.This next one is Postgres, SQL for Obsidian.If you use Postgres,this idea might also be appealing to you.This is a way to parse your metadataand put it in a Postgres database.And once it's in the database, you could use something like Grafana to visualize it.So I really love this idea.I've played around with it a little bit,but I think still a few things that I need for itto really be useful.So I would like to get back to this,which is why it's still installedbut it's not enabled for now.I've done a live stream with Marcus Olssonwho is a friend of mine and ex colleague,and he was the one that created projects.Projects is a frameworkand a kind of like a platform for, he says project planning, but it can really be visualization of anything.So the idea is that you have the one databaseand you have multiple views of the same data.Excellent idea and one that is definitelyworth watching out for. There's Query Control as well.I like to have like the backlinks hereand Query Control adds these extra iconsso that I can, you know, copy resultsor search through them or or sort the order. It's very reminiscent of what's availablein the search panel and it just puts them right therewith an easy reach if I wanna use them.QuickAdd is something I've done a video about.Excellent, excellent plugin.Love it so much.It's in my top 10 plugins of Obsidian of all time.Highly, highly recommended.I use it so much.So just to give you an idea,I said I wouldn't talk about it,but like just look at how many macrosand how many other things I've set up for it. Like that's how much I use itand it is one of those things that saves me time.Reading Time just says how long something will take to read.So like right now the untitled note that we created togethersays it's a four-minute read.I'm not entirely sure how useful that is.I think at this point I was drafting blog posts in Obsidian,whereas now I just create notes most of the time and then do the blog postas kind of a hodgepodge of different Obsidian notes.Anyway, I don't use it as much as I have,but actually I think it's good to be cognizantof how much reading time a note takesand maybe that's even more usefulthan like number of characters or words,or something like that.Readwise Official,I've done many videos about love Readwise.been an avid user of Readwise for a very long time.Paid a lot of money out of my own pocket even before I had a YouTube channel.I'm an extreme fan of Readwiseand I had a hand in prompting the team,if I might say so myself to create this pluginbecause before this I created a Python scriptto do the same thing,to bring my Readwise highlights into Obsidian.Of course this is a way better implemented versionthan my hacky script,so I use it all the time and it runs every half hour, I believe.Settings Search such a simple thing.But it just adds this search field hereso that if you know of a setting that you want to usebut you don't know which plugin it's inor where it is in the optionsand it will search everything to core pluginsand community plugins, it is super useful.So I always enable that.Just a small thing but useful.Show Current File Path is another one.I don't know why it doesn't do this by default.So like right now you can see at the bottom here it says ttrpgs, Temporary White Circle, and World.So it shows the folder path that it's in.It kind of has like breadcrumbs of the different foldersthat that particular file is in.And that's usually how I spot when a noteis in the wrong folder.Like because of my templates,I had it created in a certain folderthat I didn't want it in so then I know to move it.Spaced Repetition, I've briefly talked about.This is a flashcard plugin.Honestly, my language learning has been on the fritz lately because I've been traveling quite a bit.But I do wanna get back to it so it's gonna be enabledso that I can use it at any time.But it's cool because it brings a lot of Anki functionality,if you know that app, into Obsidian.And all you need to do is let it parse your markdown notesand then assign a tag to that noteso it knows what language it is.And then it creates flashcards based on space repetition. So it's not just a binary yes or no,like did you know it or didn't you?But like if you knew it really well,it'll show it to you maybe in a month.But if you got the right answerbut maybe weren't so sure about it,then maybe it'll show it to you in a week.So it it is a little bit smarter.Style Settings is something just for appearances.A lot of Obsidian themes use Style Settingsas a way to add like optional featuresthat you can toggle on or offor maybe you can adjust like some colors or something like that.You can of course go into the CSS yourself.I don't know about you,but I don't like going into the CSS.And I am not a frontend developer,so I am pretty lost when I look at CSS.And Style Settings just makes it easy.So I always have that.Ooh, Supercharged Links.I was not a fan of this at first.I think Leah Ferguson told me about itwhen I had her on my channel when I was interviewing her, but now I don't know why I didn't like it.So what it does is very simple.It adds an icon to a note based on certain conditions.So if we go to Supercharged Links here,so you can set conditions.So if there's a note that has in the frontmattertype colon PC, then you should put this icon,this rainbow icon next to it, and so on and it goes down. You can also, instead of using the frontmatter,you can use the path instead.And it just means that it is very easy to tellwhen you have a lot of text.Whether something you're linking to,okay, this is a TTRPG thing I just realized.Okay, so I do have like blogs and presentations.See, not just TTRPG but also TTRPGs.So like, all of these have dice.These six is in front of thembecause they're all session notes. These have people because these are factions.So here they're kind of separated out already.But you know, for example, if I wrote Palor,if I didn't have Supercharged Links,you might not know whether that's an NPCor a faction or a place.But because there's a lightning symbol in front of itand that doesn't actually change this link by the way,it just changes how it's displayed.I can tell at a glance that this is a deity in this world. So love Supercharged Links.I don't know why it took me so long to understandhow awesome it was.Okay, we're in the home stretch.I've talked a lot about Templater, so I will skip that.Still love it.Still use it heavily.And I also use it a lot for running JavaScriptand that is just a little bit of an extra waythat I automate some things in my vault.Text Extractor, I think I had to have this for Omnisearch, but I don't really need OCR, I guess.So I think I'm going to delete this one.So we're down to 47 plugins.This is great.I should make more videos like this.So I end up with fewer plugins.Text Generator, I mentioned earlier, is an AI based one.This and ChatGPT MD,I think, are the best contenders right now.However, I'm still kind of wary aboutdoing this in my main vault,so I've disabled it for now. I have Translate.You know what?I typically have found myself not needing this.This is a way to translate.I prefer to use DeepL.I really loved itbecause it doesn't just use Google Translate.It uses DeepL, which I've foundhas better language algorithms than Google Translate.But the reality is when I'm typing a note,I usually know what it means alreadyso I don't need to translate it.So I'm actually going to delete this.Great plugin if you need that. So what are we down to 46?That's awesome.Okay, the last one is Vault Changelog.Vault Changelog was createdby this person, Badr Bouslikhin.Vault Changelogs is a pluginthat I use quite a bit actually.And what it does is it creates this changelogs page.And in my case, I have it set up.Ooh, the Untitled one is there.I have it set up to put down the last 500 notesthat I've worked on and the date and the time. So that is it.So now I've got 46 plugins, awesome.That was a long list of plugins,but I do constantly get this question from many peoplewho just want to know like all of the pluginsthat I'm using now,I do wanna say though,this isn't like the best pluginsthat are out there for Obsidian.Some plugins I really see the value of,but maybe not for me or maybe not for my vault.I don't think that if you are a developer and I don't have your plugin, I've probably tried it.I rotate plugins and all the timeand some of the plugins that I showedwere not necessarily ones that were like tried and tested.They were just being tested.So this is a current snapshot of the plugins that I haveand let me know in the commentsif there were some plugins that maybe you usethat you think I should,because I'm always interested in seeing other plugins.If you'd like to see more about what my top 10 Obsidian community plugins list would look like,then check out this video where I go over just that.(speaking in foreign language)and Happy Pride Month.Thanks for watching., Every Single Obsidian Plugin I Use, Nicole van der Hoeven, 01h475svds7nf0ytad4918kt2c.
