The Sheets Extended plugin enhances markdown table functionality in Obsidian by introducing features like cell merging, vertical headers, and custom CSS styling. It allows users to create visually appealing and highly customized tables with advanced formatting options, including integration with the Advanced Tables plugin. Users can apply styles to individual cells, rows, and headers or use inline styles and class-based configurations for greater flexibility. This plugin is ideal for creating professional and organized tables within notes.

The Table Extended plugin enhances Obsidian’s table capabilities by introducing MultiMarkdown table syntax, enabling more advanced table structures. Users can create tables with multi-line content, merged cells, multiple headers, and captions without relying on complex HTML. The plugin supports extended native syntax for improved readability and usability within Obsidian notes.

The Account Viewer plugin enables Obsidian users to create visually intuitive accounting tables from simple Markdown code blocks tagged with the `accounting` alias. It supports various record types, including transactions, journal entries, and T-accounts, providing a clean, formatted preview directly within your notes. This tool is ideal for users managing financial data or accounting tasks, offering flexibility in recording and presenting data. By combining records in a single block, users can maintain a consolidated view of financial entries and summaries, all seamlessly integrated within Obsidian.

The Enhanced tables plugin for Obsidian adds advanced features to standard markdown tables, offering users the ability to sort, filter, paginate, and apply custom formatting to table data. With support for date and number formatting, custom column types like enums and booleans, and a configurable filter system, this plugin enhances table usability within Obsidian. It allows for dynamic table updates and provides per-column formatting and custom pagination. Additionally, users can implement advanced functionality using YAML configuration for table setup and management, enabling highly flexible table handling directly within their notes.

The AsciiDoc Blocks Plugin plugin enhances Obsidian by enabling the rendering of AsciiDoc blocks, with a primary focus on supporting advanced table formatting. This plugin allows users to create sophisticated tables with features such as headerless tables, CSV-based tables, and tables with merged rows and columns. It addresses the limitations of markdown tables, offering greater flexibility and customization. While other AsciiDoc features might work to some extent, the plugin is currently optimized for table rendering, with potential future expansions.

The HTML checkboxes plugin allows users to insert and interact with HTML-based checkboxes within Obsidian notes. Unlike standard Markdown checkboxes, these can be placed inside Markdown tables and positioned freely within a note. Even if the plugin is disabled, the checkboxes remain visible, ensuring compatibility with standard Markdown formatting. Each checkbox is assigned a unique ID for interactivity, preventing duplication issues. Users can right-click to choose alternate checkbox styles, though customization depends on the applied theme or CSS.
