A simple plugin for the note taking app Obsidian that will rename your files to remove emojis in their names.
🔴 ! Please note that this is the first Obsidian plugin I've developed and likely has bugs. Make backups before using and use with caution ! 🔴
Services that automatically imports notes from other apps (like Readwise) sometimes imports content with emojis in the note filename. However, this can be an issues for other services, mainly, Dropbox.
- Manual Removal: Scan all the existing files in your vault and remove emojis from filenames. Can be triggered from plugin settings tab or through a command from the command pallette.
- Auto-remove on create: When a new file is created, automatically remove emojis from its title. Useful if you import content from another platform, for exaple Readwise. Needs to be enabled from plugin settings.
- Auto-remove on rename: When a file is renamed, automatically remove emojis from its title. Needs to be enabled from plugin settings.
- No empty filename: If a file's name consists solely of emojis and therefore becomes an empty string after the removal, this plugin will generate a generic and random name for that file to prevent it from disappearing.
- Improved code quality based on reviews
- Improve generic/random file names that are generated for filenames that becomes an empty string after the removal.
