Obsidian Plugin Updates 2026-01-25 to 2026-01-31

The Simple Steam Auth plugin generates dynamic, real time Steam Guard authentication codes directly within your notes. It works by placing a shared secret inside an inline code block, which then displays the current two factor authentication code. The plugin is particularly useful for users managing multiple Steam accounts or developers maintaining bot accounts who need quick access to rotating codes. All code generation happens locally using your cryptographic secret, ensuring nothing leaves your device.

The Status Bar Clock plugin adds a simple clock to the status bar at the bottom of your window. Useful when working in full screen mode where the system clock isn't visible. The clock displays time in 12-hour format with AM/PM. You can toggle seconds on or off - when enabled the clock updates every second showing hour:minutes:seconds and when disabled it shows just hour:minutes. Settings provide this single option to control the display format. A straightforward utility that solves a specific need for full screen users.

The Weather Widget plugin displays live multi city weather forecasts directly in your vault with automatic time zone handling and sunrise/sunset tracking. The widget appears in a dedicated sidebar panel, inline Markdown blocks and Canvas nodes - all styled to match your vault theme. Temperature driven gradients and customizable sun overlays visualize conditions throughout the day. Choose between Open-Meteo (no key required) or OpenWeather providers. Deep appearance controls let you swap icons, adjust color palettes, configure gradient behaviors and fine-tune transitions.
