Consolidate all highlights made within the Obsidian into a single place

Use case or problem

I use Obsidian for all my writing needs, and for the past few months, for all my reading needs as well. Anything that’s published on the web, I usually read it inside Obsidian because I’ve used the Obsidian web clipper to summarize, extract key points, create action items, and then save it inside Obsidian.

It helps me speed up the reading activity, and sometimes I also make highlights in those clippings themselves.

Now, what I need is to have a single place where all the highlights that I made inside the note are visible at a single place, inside a single note, with their links to the original notes. so that I can review all the highlights in a very convenient manner.

Proposed solution

A single place, a single note which keeps track of all the highlights in an easy to traverse or navigate manner, and even easy to read.

You could try an embedded search/query for this. e.g.

```query
file: "Start here" /==(.+?)==/
```
  • file: "Start here" restricts the search to that note only.
  • /==(.+?)==/ searches for any text between double == marks.
