Remove the "." prefix requirement on the Override Config Folder

[GSFigure]

Use case or problem

I usually need to pass my vaults from my phone to my PC and back in order to keep them relatively updated and so I can continue on an idea I had. The problem is that my phone filters out files and folders starting off with . which is also a required prefix for the config folder that contains all of the plugins, CSS and settings.

Proposed solution

Remove the . prefix requirement for the Override Config Folder setting, or alternatively use a different config name which can still be detected by PCs which attempt to access mobile device storage.

What’s your mobile OS?

On iOS, I use Textastic to access the .obsidian folder. Taio is also one I’ve used.

I’m sure Android has options as well.

Either by making it possible to unhide it or preferably by being able to open and edit files, such as snippets, inside .obsidian through Obsidian itself. Current workaround Use a computer or paid third party app to access and edit the files in .…
