I would like this for sure. But there is also the situation where you might want a folder to not be indexed by Obsidian. I have a few reference library folders that I never add to or change but often have to wait while Obsidian heats up for a minute or two when I boot the vault up. Sorry if this is unrelated. Maybe I should do a feature request.
Thanks.
+1 for this. Meanwhile I got used to the file tree plugin which has an option to add to “excluded folders”.
+1. It would be really useful
+1 for this, it would be most useful.
+1 for this feature, would realy prove convenient
Another vote for this.
+1, would be useful to hide Attachments, Templates and Databases (used for DataView data) folders. I feel it would be convenient to toggle whether or not these hidden folders should still be accessible via Open File (cmd+O)
+1 I would also be able to toggle folders to be hidden from indexing.
+INF this is extremely needed so that I can exclude some folders from the tree view as it is annoying
+1, it would solve Allow plugins to add links between notes · Issue #33 · obsidianmd/obsidian-api · GitHub
+1, great feature request ! Has this been acknowledged yet, after 4,9k views, 2 years and 75 upvotes ? Thanks !
Yet another +1 for this. Vault is getting too big with all other external documents included in it, and search is basically unusable at this point. This is becoming quite mission-critical XD . Being able to exclude certain folders/control the scopes is key to be able to continue scaling effectively with ever-growing vaults
+1 first Surprised by lacking of acknowledgement from development, after almost 20 months?
The developers don’t acknowledge most FRs until they’re being implemented.
renaming extension to pdf may work around
