Plugin: Sync Folds

I’ve released a plugin that enables Obsidian to sync fold states across devices. These folds are also known as creases.

Currently, Obsidian stores fold states within localStorage, which individualises these across devices. My plugin monkey patches all localStorage fold actions, and places them within the the sync-folds data.json file, which does sync between devices. Thus enabling consistent fold states across multiple devices.

It’s currently awaiting PR approval and merge to be available within the plugin store, but for now you can install it manually from here: GitHub - itsonlyjames/obsidian-sync-folds: Obsidian plugin that enables syncing of fold states across devices · GitHub

As in expand / collapse part of a tree ?

Great plugin, how long until it’s available for download from the plugin store?

How long is a piece of string?

Unfortunately the Obsidian team is the blocker here. High quality—necessary—plugins like this now get stuck in a sea of AI generated slop. It could be months just to have a review that rejects it. Personal opinions aside on how terrible the review process is, I suggest just manually installing it for now.

If you need assistance, I’m happy to help.

consider making the title of the plugin ‘Sync Folds/Collapsed’ so it’s more discoverable
