Changelog

Highlights

• Web viewer, a new core plugin, lets you open external links within Obsidian. This makes it easier to read linked content without leaving the app and improves multitasking for web research. The plugin is disabled by default and must be enabled manually in settings.
• Sync now has a new view option, "Hide my changes," which hides your own file changes in a shared Obsidian sync vault.
• File Explorer now includes an option to automatically reveal the active file.
• Added the "Download attachments for current file" command, which downloads all externally embedded images and replaces the external links with internal embeds.
• Added the "Insert footnote" command. Footnote autocomplete now provides a fallback to create a new footnote if no match is found.
• Tags view now includes a search filter.
• Outline now has an "Auto-scroll to current section" option.
