File tag picker

Manage frontmatter tags directly from the Obsidian file explorer context menu.

Features

  • Right-click one file or a multi-file selection in the file explorer and edit tags inline.
  • Toggle tags with check states:
    • checked = present in all selected files
    • mixed = present in some selected files
    • unchecked = not present
  • Ranked tags with recency first, then vault frequency.
  • Paged menu: five tags at a time with next/previous controls.
  • Setting to choose multi-tag mode or single-tag replacement mode.
  • Bulk clear tags for all selected files.

How it works

The plugin updates YAML frontmatter tags in each selected Markdown file by using Obsidian's processFrontMatter API.

Install (manual)

  1. Copy manifest.json, main.js, and styles.css to: .obsidian/plugins/file-tag-picker/
  2. Reload Obsidian.
  3. Enable File tag picker in Settings → Community plugins.

Usage

  1. Select one or more Markdown notes in the file explorer.
  2. Right-click and use the Tags section in the menu.
  3. Click a tag to add/remove it across the selection.
  4. Use ▶ Show next 5 tags and ◀ Show previous 5 tags to page through more tags.

Settings

  • Allow multiple tags: on by default. Turn it off to make each tag choice replace the file's existing tags with the selected tag.
