Thank you for this!
Do you think that, if/when the Obsidian team implements this, that this plugin can be disabled and all Markdown links in the frontmatter that this plugin handled will be working?
Ideally yes, but we need to compare them when/if the Obsidian team adds the feature
Finally ! Thank you so much ! I’ll finally be able to use Properties !
I think it would be great if there were an option for the links to behave like standard Obsidian links (standard means any type of links but not stylized as the frontmatter does). The reason for this is because there are many different things for example (with my suggestions):
- The links look as if they were in Source mode in the frontmatter. This makes sense but for example when you right click on it you don’t see as many options as you normally would. I would suggest that it behaves as normal.
- Remove the brackets and characters that only appear if you browse the links or are in Source mode, because if these characters, strongly associated with Source mode, are always shown in the Live preview, it doesn’t make much sense, Well, partly makes sense because it is frontmatter but it is live preview, it would simply be better to put the same monospaced font.
So it would look like this with my suggestions:
Live Preview
Source Mode

Thank you very much for updating the plugin. I have a question, was not adding this feature a decision?
In Source mode, with and without the plugin, braces are always shown.
In Live Preview braces are never shown. So I don’t see what do you request
So, it is supposed to be my version of Obsidian. My bad.
- Please upload a screenshot of how it is rendered with your Obsidian setup with my plugin disabled.
- Please upload a screenshot of how it is rendered with your Obsidian setup with my plugin enabled.
- Collect debug information.
Ok, it works but the problem is that I definitely don’t use the UI as it inherently contains many inconsistencies and is not flexible at all.
Would it be possible to add a button in the plugin configuration to allow this in the source mode of the properties? but that it stops working if the Obsidian Source Mode is activated?
This is an amazing plugin and so valuable for Bases - thank you for taking the time to create it and for keeping it updated.
I have moved from inline metadata based conversation tracking (in daily note) to file based so I can use Bases and the plugin allows me to have links to E.G. the file of the person with whom I’ve communicated. However, if I add other MD links in the ‘details’ field, along with text, the spaces do not seem to be rendering. Screenshots below
Do I need to add <NBSP> or is it something that could be addressed in the plugin? I realise it may well be a rendering issue with Bases, but, as Markdown Links are not strictly supported in this way, I’m not sure this will be resolved by the Obsidian team immediately if I raise it.

![]()
and yet the spaces are respected in the File Properties (I changed the typo ‘meetign’ to ‘meeting’ from one screenshot to another - they are showing the same file/metadata);
This is not a proper place to raise/track bugs/FR. Please go to the plugin’s GitHub repo and create the issue there attaching all the information requested.
My apologies - will do - thank you.
