Already supporting Note Aliases, but for different/other/good reasons. But I think aliases are a way of hacking out what I want here ie. I would have to create an alias of “usability” in my example case, whereas the word is already part of the note title so I shouldn’t have to duplicate that work. But @rigmarole has pushed my head into something interesting, which is maybe a feature or plugin:
- Writing a note and you use a word (or phrase) that you feel is important, should be linked and that maybe you have other notes about. In my example, I write the word “accessibility”.
- Hit a magic key while the cursor is over the word and Obsidian searches your notes (title only), and brings up possible matches in a context menu. Search would be fuzzy, so note titles that include the word “accessible” would also be presented.
- You can select one or more that are actually relevant, and they’re inserted into the text (could be in a footnote, could be just in brackets following, could be as a link/text entry replacing the word you’ve searched on.
That scratches my itch. Thoughts/ideas? (and I’m off to the Feature/plugin forum to see if it’s already been thought of).
