No > Community Directory:`https://community.obsidian.md/plugins/property-from-backlink` * * * **Plugin: Property from Backlink** I made a small plugin for MOC/PARA-style vaults: it tags every note that links to your current note with a frontmatter property (default: `moc`), using the current note’s name as the value. Meant for hub notes / MOCs — run one command instead of manually tagging every note that belongs to it. - Never overwrites existing values — turns them into a list if there’s a conflict, skips notes that are already tagged correctly. - The property name is configurable in settings. - Idempotent — safe to run multiple times on the same note. I’ve just submitted it to the official Community Plugins directory — it passed the automated review and is now waiting on manual review. In the meantime you can try it via BRAT: Repo: `https://github.com/jackydangelo/obsidian-property-from-backlink` Install via BRAT: Community plugins → BRAT → “Add beta plugin” → `jackydangelo/obsidian-property-from-backlink` I’d really appreciate feedback before the plugin goes live officially — especially if you hit an edge case with your vault structure (aliases, unusual frontmatter, large vaults, etc.). Bug reports and suggestions welcome, either here or as a GitHub issue.
