Obsidian plugins with #grouping#

The Split Groups plugin adds a custom Bases view that places a note in every group named by its list property rather than combining multiple values into one group. It supports Table and List layouts, with an optional second property for nested splitting. Values are matched without case or surrounding space differences, links resolve by their target and duplicate values count once. Empty properties can appear in a final no value group. Groups support alphabetical or note count sorting, natural number order and persistent folding, while notes retain the Base's own sort. Heading controls create notes with the relevant group values, collapse or expand every group and preserve separate fold states for each view. Disabling the plugin leaves notes unchanged but Split groups views remain unavailable until the plugin is restored or changed to Table.

The Bases Paginator plugin adds page navigation to Bases views so large result sets can be browsed without replacing native query controls. It provides first, previous, next and last page actions, page sizes from 1 to 1,000, support for grouped results and native rendering for links, tags, lists, images, formulas, dates, booleans and numbers. The view can keep headers sticky, place pagination above or below the table and exposes keyboard friendly controls with screen reader status and mobile sized touch targets. It works as a local, read only view, so searching, filtering, sorting and named views stay with native Bases. The plugin also preserves older saved options while leaving editing, row creation and other table only interactions to the native view.

The AlphaBullet plugin brings natural order sorting to unordered markdown lists, making it easier to organize items like inventories, glossaries, and worldbuilding content. It supports ascending and descending sort options and can group items under headings based on their initial letters. Users can trigger sorting manually via commands or set up YAML frontmatter for per-file auto-sorting. The plugin also allows configuration of group and item sort orders independently, offering flexibility for complex workflows like reverse glossaries.

The Bases Timeline View plugin plots notes as timeline items using dates and content from frontmatter, with custom field mappings when vault properties use different names. It groups entries by note fields in Obsidian 1.10 or later and can render notes as regular items, time span backgrounds or vertical markers. Marker, background and item roles follow a fixed priority when conditions overlap. Timeline items support built in hover previews, CSS classes and data attributes for styling from tags or frontmatter. An exposed API accepts generic data structures, while its Dataview helper maps page lists into items, backgrounds and markers. Dates supplied as strings, Date values or numbers are normalised to YYYY-MM-DD and incomplete year or month values are completed into full dates.
