Manual Sorting — plugin for Drag'n'Drop file sorting

Share & showcase

Hi! I have created a :pushpin: Manual Sorting plugin for Obsidian that enables manual sorting within the file explorer using drag-and-drop.

The plugin is based on monkey patching the built-in “File Explorer” plugin and minimizes the use of MutationObserver. This approach allows for a more efficient integration and better performance within Obsidian.

:zap: Features

  • Drag’n’Drop file sorting
  • Sorting order is preserved even after restarting Obsidian
  • Option to reset the saved sorting order

:date: Planned Features

  • Mobile support
  • Tag sorting in the tag panel

Feel free to open an issue or request new features: Kh4f/obsidian-manual-sorting
