The Go Up plugin is a simple yet powerful tool that allows you to quickly navigate to a specified parent page in your Obsidian vault. By adding a custom "up" property to the front matter of a note, you can set a keyboard shortcut to jump directly to that parent page. This feature is particularly useful when working on complex projects or organizing large amounts of information. The plugin also allows you to customize your own parent property by filling out a setting tab, giving you flexibility and control over how you navigate your notes. With the Go Up plugin, you can save time and streamline your workflow, making it easier to find the information you need quickly and efficiently.

Changelog

✨ New: choose whether the current note stays open when going up

Two separately bindable commands (#12):

  • Navigate to parent page — replaces the current note with the parent
    • if the current note is pinned, it is kept open instead
    • if the parent is already open in another tab, that tab is focused and the current note is closed (no duplicate tab)
    • otherwise it replaces the current note in place
  • Navigate to parent page in new tab — keeps the current note open
    • focuses the parent if it's already open, otherwise opens it in a new tab next to the current note

Already-open parents are matched by file path (no more same-name collisions), and sidebar/background tabs are revealed on focus.

Go Upper Page

This plugin allows users to quickly navigate to a specified "parent" page by utilizing a custom property in the page's front matter.

How to Use

  1. Install the Plugin: Download and install the Go Up plugin in your Obsidian vault through the community plugins section.

  2. Add "up" Property: In your note, include an up property in the front matter.

    For example:

    ---
up: "[[ParentNote]]"
---

    Replace ParentNote with the link to the page you wish to navigate to.

    or you can use Multiple Pages in "up" Property like this 

    ---
up:
 - "[[ParentNote1]]"
 - "[[ParentNote2]]"
---

  3. Set a Hotkey: Open Settings → Hotkeys, search for "Go Up", and bind the command you want (see Commands below). I recommend Cmd + Shift + U to navigate to the specified parent page.

Commands

The plugin adds two commands you can bind to separate hotkeys, depending on whether you want the current note to stay open:

Command Behavior
Navigate to parent page Replaces the current note with the parent. If the current note is pinned, it is kept open instead. If the parent is already open in another tab, that tab is focused and the current note is closed (no duplicate tab).
Navigate to parent page in new tab Keeps the current note open. If the parent is already open, focus simply switches to it; otherwise the parent opens in a new tab next to the current note.

When the up property lists multiple parents, a picker is shown first and the chosen parent then follows the behavior above.

Customize your own parent property

go to setting tab "Go Up" and fill out Parent property to use "parent" notes.
