This plugin parses links and processes them to point to the right places. It is also needed for embedded links (like images). See [[Obsidian compatibility]] for more information.
> [!note]
> For information on how to add, remove or configure plugins, see the [[configuration#Plugins|Configuration]] page.
This plugin accepts the following configuration options:
- `markdownLinkResolution`: Sets the strategy for resolving Markdown paths, can be `"absolute"` (default), `"relative"` or `"shortest"`. You should use the same setting here as in [[Obsidian compatibility|Obsidian]].
- `absolute`: Path relative to the root of the content folder.
- `relative`: Path relative to the file you are linking from.
- `shortest`: Name of the file. If this isn't enough to identify the file, use the full absolute path.
- `prettyLinks`: If `true` (default), simplifies links by removing folder paths, making them more user friendly (e.g. `folder/deeply/nested/note` becomes `note`).
- `openLinksInNewTab`: If `true`, configures external links to open in a new tab. Defaults to `false`.
- `lazyLoad`: If `true`, adds lazy loading to resource elements (`img`, `video`, etc.) to improve page load performance. Defaults to `false`.
- `externalLinkIcon`: Adds an icon next to external links when `true` (default) to visually distinguishing them from internal links.
> [!warning]
> Removing this plugin is _not_ recommended and will likely break the page.
