Obsidian/Plugin/Front Matter Title
- Obsidian community plugin by snezhig (snezhig/obsidian-front-matter-title) that uses a frontmatter property value as the display title throughout the app.
Features
- Reads a configurable frontmatter key (default:
title) and substitutes its value as the displayed note title in tabs, the file explorer, graph view, and backlinks. - Allows the file's base name and the displayed title to differ — useful when filenames follow a machine-friendly convention but titles should be human-readable.
- Title format is configurable: supports templates with fallback to the filename when the property is absent.
Installation
- Search Front Matter Title in Settings → Community plugins → Browse.
