host: obsidian.md

Customizing Style

Card-styled link is styled by styles.css. To customize, you can try making CSS snippets.

For example:

.auto-card-link-author {
	display: none;
}

To hide the author.

Motivation

  • Wanted to show beautiful links in my notes
  • Didn't want to mess up my notes with HTML tags
  • Wanted to keep the original plugin updated (KreNtal)
