You can manually upload files, they just need to be served by a web server. As long as they are on a web server that’s fine. If you are opening the files locally it is not. Unfortunately, there are a whole lot of limitations of the file:// protocol that simply aren’t easy or practical to work around.
As far as exporting the files you have selected, I am not sure I understand the problem. If you only select a few files to export it will only export the ones you have selected.
What Obsidian theme do you use here?
Hi, are there any plans to support metadata / properties (frontmatter) in each note as well ?
I use metadata menu and each note/file as typically several several properties, including links to other notes/files.
I would be very helpful to see these properties in the HTML output.
My files around 30GB, it appears error during export.
I am using the things theme 
Definetly, this is on my to-do list!
Hey, amazing work with this plugin!
I’ve noticed a couple of weird behaviours:
Olso, a personal request 
would it be possible be compatible with Image Toolkit ? I think at its current state your plugin only export css files, but not the js associated to it, making this plugin not work after export.
Anyway, amazing work so far! Keep up the good work 
This is a very useful plugin to me, thanks for this work. I use it to share occasionally my notes, and is very handy, but have a few questions about features.
Would be possible to not show the attachment folder in the HTML page? I could use only external images etc but then it would not work when I am offline on my pc. Currently I have to edit/clean the tree html file to avoid showing the attachment in the tree as I prefer people to not see all my attachments there.
Also, can I set one of the exported page as the home page?
Finally can I make to collapse/hide the graph in the right sidebar, after is published (i.e. keep exporting but have hiding when have a long TOC in my file).
I have a possible bug to report, will try to do on git if I manage to learn how to do in short, there are files that are not exported but still linked in the file I export, when I click on them the browser of course does not find them no prob, but when I hit the back button the URL to the previous file is broken. I have to manually edit the URL to set the right path to my file.
Again THANKS a lot for this plugin, it helps me a lot.
PS: can someone tell me what plugin / syntax is used to have this blocks on a file (see example
Home (obsidianweb.net) )?
Hi, just came across this plugin, looks very promising!
I am not very updated on the necessities for web servers which is not based on old-school index.html, so what is actually needed on the server side to get the online web server running?
Also, would it be possible to set this up as a local server to get access to the search feature locally?
I know how to set up a simple node.js server, but there ends my knowledge.
I find the html documents mode less useful with the image files being encoded into the html file, I prefer links to a media folder, and it lacks the search feature.
HC
actually, I figured out how to do this as a local server using http-server
in terminal I typed sudo npm install http-server -g to install and http-server -o to start server (linking to the static files which in my case were in the same folder as the http_server)
So now I have search working locally, but would love to know the requirements for the online server
I got it working on my dreamhost server. I guess the part that confused me is that I expected to need something like a index.html to start, but I understand now that any of the generated html files can be a starting point.
I just found this awesome plugin, and I join the petition for Properties to also show in the HTML exports.
I already read that it’s in your to-do list hehe, it’s just for you to know that here there’s another person patiently waiting for the moment you go for it 
I love this plugin so much, thanks for making it!
Hi, the icons for the menu and for collapsing the toc look different for me. The menu icon looks too thick and the toc icon has a border around. I tried with default themes and different themes, but same. I tried with both Windows and Linux. I don’t know what I am missing.
Also, is it possible to use custom icons there?
This issue is now solved with the recent update
Another request. Please give an option to switch the left and right panels. For example, if I want to have the document outline at the left and file list at the right. Also, an option for the theme toggle button either at the left or right 
Hi there!
(I’m not sure if I should post this info here or elswhere).
Just as information, I’m experiencing some irregularities in regard of Dataview lists and tables in the exported local HTMLs. After doing several exports, I saw that in some of them some tables don’t display the information inside of them, while in other exports the same lists and tables do.
Looking forward to having that issue solved, as these lists and tables are so important in my work.
It also makes my Maps of Content export badly, as they’re mostly baseid in Dataview lists and tables.
Thank you!
Does it work on mobile?
This is an ongoing issue that I am working to solve. It works a lot better in the beta verisons of the plugin.
No you cannot export from mobile. There a lot of reasons for this, some of which are technical and some of which are practical. But you will have to use a computer running Windows, Linux, or Mac to export.
