Obsidian Plugin Updates 2026-01-04 to 2026-01-10

The Conditional Properties plugin automates frontmatter management using IF/THEN rules that eliminate repetitive manual updates. Define conditions based on property values or note titles, then apply actions like adding tags, removing values, overwriting properties, or deleting them entirely. You can also modify note titles with prefixes, suffixes or complete overwrites using dynamic placeholders for dates and filenames. Rules support six operators including exact matches, contains checks, and existence tests. Multiple actions can be combined in a single rule for complex workflows. Execute rules on demand across your entire vault or just the current file or schedule automatic scans at intervals targeting the latest created notes, latest modified notes or everything.

The Auto Keyword Linker plugin automatically converts predefined keywords into wiki-style links throughout your vault, building a richly interconnected knowledge graph without manual bracket typing. Define keywords once with their variations like "ML", "machine learning", "neural networks" and the plugin intelligently finds and links them while respecting existing links, code blocks, and markdown formatting. AI-powered suggestions analyze your vault to discover frequently used terms you might have missed. Advanced features include folder specific scoping for context aware linking, block references that jump to specific sections, relative path support and automatic tag management. Preview changes before applying them, enable auto linking on save for seamless workflow or process your entire vault in bulk. Import and export keyword configurations for backup or team sharing.

The Disable Tabs plugin enforces a single tab interface by preventing multiple tabs from opening simultaneously. Opening or closing tabs always replaces the current one, even if it's pinned. This creates a focused, distraction free environment where you work with one note at a time. The plugin pairs well with the Hider plugin for hiding the tab bar entirely and includes an option to hide the tabs button on mobile devices.
