Got overwhelmed with work…It took me a while but I finally knocked it out. I also took the time to modify my File explorer. Thanks a lot. Now all that’s left to figure out is how to make the Grandfather Digital clock a larger feature on any of my Pages.
Anyone has a config for Minimal theme with Nord theme colors?
I remember seeing it in the forum, but I can’t seem to find it anywhere.
@argentum from some of the screenshots I saw. Seems like you are using Nord scheme with the Minimal theme. Would you be able to share it, please?
Try this adding this snippet…
.status-bar-item.plugin-obsidian-grandfather {
color: red;
}
I made these additions…
.status-bar-item.plugin-obsidian-grandfather {
color: var(--interactive-accent);
order: 5;
font-weight: 700;
}
… to (hopefully) fix the position of the grandfather time at the far right (I have five elements) of my statusbar. As you can see, I also made it BOLD
wow,I love your theme!
Would you be happy to share your css snippets?
By suggestion from kepano, I am re-posting a snippet to create sidenotes on your documents that I shared on the Minimal Theme thread. You can read about the origin of the snippet in the original post. Here is how sidenotes look like

Hi, Thanks for this great and clean theme @kepano.
I’m experimenting with a switch from another great theme (California Coast) and there are three things that I would like to achieve in Minimal. There’s a good chance that I’m overlooking things regarding the questions below, but any help would be great.
Furthermore, I would like to diminish the space between some of them in Reading mode. Especially the smaller headings.
California theme had the margins in editor and preview mirrored, which I liked, and I could set the top and bottom margins in the Style Settings plugin. I’ve been looking if I could set something up in Style Settings plugin for Minimal, but I can’t find the right CSS selectors/variables for that.
I’ve also searched with dev tools and tried all sorts of margin/padding-bottom etc. things. I was thinking that the Contextual Typography plugin could help here, but that goes above my level of comprehension
.markdown-source-view.mod-cm6.is-readable-line-width:not(.rtl) .cm-contentContainer {
max-width: 600px;
margin-right: auto;
}
I hope my questions don’t come across as if I didn’t try. I tried for hours, so it’s just my experience level with CSS, I’m afraid.
Thanks a lot, Jan
Hello, do anyone knows how to change size of the buttons? It’s tiny for me.
Have you tried zooming? Use CMD +
to zoom in, which will scale everything up proportionally.
Oh, I haven’t thought about that. Thanks!
Disclaimer: I am not an expert.
Regarding Your first “problem,” I am also facing the same “issue” with the spacing between headings and paragraphs, the spacing between lines and list, the left-indent for bullet points…among many others. I sympathize with how theme creators have to write for 5 different views (Live preview, Legacy Editor, Preview mode, Mobile Preview, Mobile Editor). I also tried California Coast’s theme. Though the spacing between the headings and the paragraphs appeared to be the same, the line-spacing of the heading isn’t.
If you want to solve the problem yourself, you can try clicking option+cmd+i (Ctrl+Shift+I for windows) and look into the exact property in the CSS and change that! Too much work for me.
As for problem 3, I use Hider plugin. Try that out!
Thanks a lot @elwc I’ll try your suggestions regarding the properties.
Regarding 3, I meant that there is CSS styling to make tags look like pills. I rather have them shown as #tag
in plain text. I was looking for code to revert the pills to plain tags. Furthermore, I find the metadata block useful, just not with extra eye candy around tags.
Hi, here is my own configuration of the Minimal Theme. Tweaked a little bit with CSS snippets, Advanced Appearance and Style Settings.
I love how clean it looks.
A big Thank You to the developper !
Let me first share my practice.
For me I assign my aliases and tags at the top of the file, e.g.
---
title: page title
aliases: alias-of-page
tags: [tag1, tag2]
---
So by using Hider plugin to hide the METADATA, I can still see the alias and tags at the top in a muted way.
Now if you still prefer to things to work your way, open notepad, paste the following code in it and save it as .css and then put it in your Snippet folder.
.frontmatter-container .tag,
a.tag {
border: 0px;}
.frontmatter-container .tag,
.frontmatter-container .frontmatter-alias {
background-color: transparent;}
Note: I managed to write the above by using Ctrl+Shift+I and studying the properties of the css.
@elwc your first solution works great. I wasn’t aware how to achieve this. But it looks great in this muted way. Thanks a lot.
Nice. Color you are using?
Very nice! How did you change the background color to a blueish tone?
I used to change the hsl values directly into the theme file. This is now possible by changing the color values through the Obsidian Style Settings plugin with the option “Base Color” under the “Colors” submenu. That color should be #1E2837-ish
