Steps to reproduce
- Have multiple vaults
- Install/create themes in one vault (say, vault “A”)
- Make the theme folders of the other vaults macOS aliases to vault A’s theme folder
Expected result
Vaults should be able to follow the alias and find the installed themes
Actual result
After restarting Obsidian, the vaults with alias theme folders do not find the local themes anymore
