New Feature: Backlink integration for Cornell Notes!:link: (seamless to Zettelkasten)

Hi,

if you are using Obsidian, you probably love bi-directional linking, because is the heart of building a second brain or you use the Zettelkasten method. However, until now, there was a problem (blindspot) with my plugin:

While internal links like [[Note name#Heading name]] are essential for connecting your thoughts in the editor, they could clutter the clean, printable layout of rendered Cornell Notes inside the “Page View” mode of the plugin.

The Solution: “Best of Both Worlds”

Now I’ve covered this for main text!

Here is what I’ve changed:

  • Fully Functional in Edit Mode: You can continue to build your Zettelkasten network without restrictions. All internal wiki-links and obsidian:// URIs remain 100% active in the Obsidian write mode. You can still use Ctrl/Cmd + Hover to preview or click them as usual.
  • Invisible in Page View: As soon as you open the rendered Cornell Notes Page View, those internal text links disappear from the layout. External web links (like https://...), on the other hand, will remain visible and clickable.

:bullseye: Why is this awesome?

You no longer have to compromise! You can heavily link your study materials behind the scenes to maintain a robust knowledge graph, while generating pristine, distraction-free Cornell Notes sheets for export to Anki and zotero, studying, printing, or (social media) sharing.

Enjoy clean notes!
