A text companion with copy/paste sortspecs are available on my site: https://animalcracker.link/GHoxsX2e The Custom Sort plugin for Obsidian lets you dictate EXACTLY how you want your core File Explorer plugin to display your notes and folders. A sortspec.md file in your root vault folder can single handedly control the sorting of every folder in your vault by letting you: - manually sort items - dynamically sort items using various wildcard variables - group items that don't match any of the sorting rules - group notes and folders together or separately.
