Description

The Mobile Sidebar Notes plugin lets you open notes or create new tabs directly within the sidebar on mobile, bringing desktop-style multitasking to smaller screens. It supports all editor types, including canvas, while keeping full editing functionality intact. You can configure commands to open specific notes instantly, use autocomplete for note paths, and prevent duplicate tabs for the same note. Tabs remain pinned or persistent between sessions, allowing smoother navigation for reading and editing multiple notes at once.

Changelog

v1.1.0

New: Left Sidebar Support (#2)

Each note command now has its own sidebar side selector — choose left or right per command (defaults to right). The "Open new sidebar tab" command has been split into two:

  • Open new right sidebar tab
  • Open new left sidebar tab

Configured note commands now display as "Open [Title] in [left/right] sidebar" for clarity.

Fix: Auto-Pin Tabs (#1, #3)

Auto-pin now correctly pins tabs opened via links within the sidebar. Previously, clicking a link in a sidebar note could replace the tab content instead of opening in a new tab. Now any file opened in either sidebar is automatically pinned when the setting is enabled.

Thanks to @nitero for reporting the auto-pin issue and submitting a fix, as well as suggesting left sidebar support.
