Hi there, you found a way to get Wiki stuff into Obsidian? Thanks
This seems to apply to the Chromium browser, it does not work for Safari.
I love this clipper but am challenged with adding the {keywords:SEPARATOR} into a list property.
What should the separator be if I want to create a list property in the yaml?
Having thought about this a bit ā¦ keywords in the source html are in different formats with different delimiters. So this task might be left to do in Obsidian after the note is imported; if it even has keywords. That is a small price to pay.
Thank you for this extension, it is very useful.
However - after clipping perfectly 10 pages or so, it stops creating pages in Obsidian.
It still sends the markdown to the clipboard, and it opens Obsidian, but no new page is created.
What could be going on?
Chrome on Windows.
All the best,
Tord
Open the Developer Console in Obsidian (Ctrl + Shift + I). I just spent two hours dealing with the same issue. It turns out that the page title had a period at the end and that is not allowed in Obsidian, as the error message indicated.
Hope that helps 
Will there be support of {publishedate} in frontmatter in the upcoming update?
thanks
Iām usually able to grab the published date by using {article:published_time} in my template. it was the most common meta tag I came across when hunting for other variables in different sitesā source code.

thank you so much, this is really awsome.
Did a little test. this mustache{} seem only work on meta tags not on div class.
yeah, Iām not really sure how you would pull from a div class given that the extension itself looks in the meta tags. Iāve definitely had to manually grab info from source code in some sites that donāt use the metadata tags (but I wish they would! huge fan of semantic web practices), at least until I figure out some easier way!
I donāt know why. But, I donāt see the same āSend text selection to Obsidianā option as you did. Is the Firefox Add-on still working the same way?
This is what I got after clicking on the Add-on button:
@althair Have a look here:
Itās not in the button at the top of the browser; itās in the context menu (usually a right-click in the page).
Maybe itās broken because of Firefox recent update?
Thanks for the help. Iāll look for Vivaldi now.
The main problem for me is that everything works except that the files are downloaded without the .md extension - just the {filename} is used. This makes Obsidian not be able to open the file. I enabled the setting to view ALL files (instead of default just the supported files) in the navigation bar, and then I right click on the file, rename it by adding .md, and the rest works.
Can someone point me to a link where it says how to automatically add set the downloaded filename format as {filename}.md?
I did try to set the format as the filename format in Markdownload, but that didnāt help.
Had to sign up just to comment on this lovely solution! I had issues with several Firefox Obsidian extensions in Linux Mint, including this one and didnāt get how I could simply save the clips in my Obsidian vault, until this solution. Cheers!

Me as well. It has replaced Readwise completely. I use MDL most every day and it just does its job, flawlessly.
Cheers MarkDownload !!!
