Here is the official tutorial for learning and mastering Notebook Navigator: The video has subtitles in 21 languages.
Notebook Navigator is checked with TypeScript, ESLint with the official Obsidian ESLint plugin, Prettier, Vitest and a production build before changes are merged. The build must complete with zero errors and zero warnings.
Security checks run through CodeQL, with scan history in the CodeQL workflow runs. Current status is shown in the badges at the top of this page.
Notebook Navigator runs locally, but some features make documented HTTP requests for updates, downloads, and remote content. See section 11 - Network and Diagnostics Disclosure for the full list.
API Reference - Public API documentation. Covers metadata management, navigation control and event subscriptions for JavaScript/TypeScript developers.
Theming Guide - Guide for theme developers. Includes CSS class reference, custom properties, and theme examples for light and dark modes.
Startup Process - Plugin initialization sequence. Cold boot vs warm boot flows, metadata cache resolution, deferred cleanup, and content generation pipeline. Includes Mermaid diagrams.

Many settings in Notebook Navigator display a sync toggle — a cloud icon that switches between "Enable sync" and "Disable sync". This controls where each setting is stored and whether it is shared across devices.
Obsidian plugins store their configuration in data.json, located at .obsidian/plugins/notebook-navigator/data.json inside your vault folder. When you use a sync service — such as Obsidian Sync, iCloud, GitHub, Dropbox, or Google Drive — this file is synchronized across all your devices along with the rest of your vault. Any setting saved to data.json will propagate to every device that syncs the vault.
When sync is enabled (default) for a setting, the value is saved to data.json and synchronized to all devices through your sync service.
When sync is disabled for a setting, the value is saved to Obsidian's local storage instead. Local storage is device-specific and is not included in vault sync. The setting will have its own independent value on each device. When you disable sync for a setting, the current value is copied to local storage on the current device, and the value is removed from data.json to prevent it from overriding local values on other devices.
If you do not use a sync service, the sync toggle has no practical effect since data.json is only stored locally.
Notebook Navigator has two search modes: filter search and Omnisearch. Switch between them using the up/down arrow keys or by clicking the search icon. Combine file names, properties, tags, dates, and filters in one query (e.g., meeting .status=active #work @thisweek).
