Note: The latest installer enables cookie encryption. If you use the Web viewer plugin, we recommend upgrading to the latest installer to avoid your cookies being accessible in plaintext from other apps. Improvements Added icons to settings sections. Markdown links are now supported in text and list properties. Internal links are automatically updated when the destination file is moved or renamed. Daily notes: The daily note format can be selected from a list of predefined formats. Attempting to rename a file to include unsafe characters (such as '#' or ']') will only result in a warning. When importing files (e.g. via drag and drop), Obsidian now automatically strips out invalid characters from the filename. Added a "Copy path" submenu to the file context menu. macOS: Toggles and sliders are now styled to match their native counterparts. New setting Files & links › Default file to open . Choose between "Last opened files", "New note", "Specific note", or "Daily note". If you were previously using Daily notes option to "Open daily note on startup", be sure to update your vault to use this setting instead. New "Keychain" settings section for storing plugin secrets. Plugin API is coming soon. When text is selected, pasting a URL into the editor will convert the selection into a Markdown link using the URL (e.g. [selected text](pasted URL) ). New setting: Community Plugins › Automatically check for plugin updates . Obsidian will check for plugin updates in the background every 3 days, or after the app updates. URI: new , open , and daily URI actions now support a new paneType param. Param Description paneType=tab Open in a new tab paneType=split Open in a new tab group paneType=window Open in a pop-out window (Desktop only) Added new "Copy current file path from system root" command. No longer broken Reference links no longer allow spaces before the link definition. Fixed issue where navigating between notes would sometimes cause a flicker when the properties list appeared/disappeared. Fixed external links (e.g. [link](http://example.com) ) inside text and list properties not opening in the browser. Fixed issues with the "Inter" font not being recognized in the app. Right-to-left languages (RTL): Fixed layout of property editor. Graph view: Attachments no longer show the full file path. Bases: Fixed issues with list view virtualization when grouping is configured. Fixed groups not displaying while scrolling. Daily note: Fixed "Open next daily note" and "Open previous daily note" commands not working when daily note format included a folder path. Fixed display of bolded links in reading mode (e.g. **[[link]]** ). Bases are now fully exported when using "Export to PDF." Fixed internal Markdown links in properties not working correctly when the file name contains spaces. Fixed a bug where switching focus between the main window and a pop-out window could cause the wrong tab to become active. Developers The installer has been updated to use Electron v39.2.6 (requires downloading the latest installer ). For users on Linux, this enables Wayland by default. Obsidian is now bundled with Inter Variable font instead of Inter. Inter Variable supports variable font weights. Added SettingGroup to the API. Settings can now be organized into logical groups with optional headers. This should provide a more standardized design language for settings organization. API: Exposed new SecretStorage and a complementary SecretComponent for plugins to integrate with the secret storage. The secret storage is a new opt-in way for plugins to save keys that might be shared across multiple plugins. For example, a Google API token, or an OpenAI key. Instead of requiring users to copy-paste the same keys into multiple plugin settings, plugins can now fetch keys from a shared collection of secrets identified by a user-provided name.
