• I was wowed to sync in my Raindrop bookmarks, with highlights.
• Yellow highlights appeared in the bookmark note, in grey callouts.
• I went back to Raindrop, changed one to green, another to red.
• I performed a manual sync.
• These were also synced, but as additions to the bottom of the doc. Original grey (yellow) ones were left in place.
• More so, I went back to Raindrop and changed them back to yellow, then resynced again.
• The highlights were added yet again, at the bottom, in grey.

Hi! Thanks for a great plug! Very useful indeed.

More of a feature request (optional or not from the user-perspective):

I would have loved if the YAML block ending (the last "---", after the "raindrop_last_update:" line) was part of the template that I could influence. If it were at the top of the template that I can edit in the modal I could add my own datafields to the YAML block. Currently I don't see a way to do that...or am I missing something somewhere else?

Hi, thanks for making it clear that you store the token (a lot of the other devs don't do that).

But could you add a reference to the file in which it is stored?

I guess you do store it in plaintext (which is fine) but this should also be mentioned.

To many people are sharing their vault and their .obsidian directory 😀

Can the callout headers be the same color as the highlight color? As it is with the provided template, (1) red highlights are contained in a callout with a blue header; (2) blue highlights in a callout with a teal color; (3) yellow highlights in a callout with a grey header. Green highlights are okay--in a callout with a green header.

Congratulations. It is a great plugin. I have two questions:

1. What can I do to make ae update a change in the item description in Raindrop, after I have synced with Obsidian.
2. Raindrop has a problem that I do not know if you can solve it with this plugin: the order of the highlights is the order of when they are made, but this can give a messy result, since it is very useful the order in which the texts appear in the article, from top to bottom.

Would it be possible to sync all "Bookmarks" including Title, Description and tags based on collection and / or tags?

Everybody is always keen on the highlights, but I'm also looking for an easy way to have some bookmarks in obsidian, with Description and Tags

At the moment my process is:

1. Mark a webpage with the raindrop.io plugin, look at the automatic description and make changes if necessary, add tags and collection
2. Later on during my "triaging" in raindrop.io I take a look if the "bookmark" is still valid and needs either be processed = highlighted or bookmarked (mainly due to the fact that I would probably need to highlight everything or dive deeper into the article and take additional note).
3. If it is a bookmark I cope the URL and paste that into a "bookmark" note in obsidian, copy the description from raindrop.io and tags and add some more minor comments if necessary.
4. After processing the "bookmark" in raindrop.io I set a tag that I'm done with it.
5. Later during my "triaging" in Obsidian I then come back to that bookmark and process it further.
6. After processing the "bookmark" I tag it as done.

Being change the process to the following would streamline it a lot:

1. Mark a webpage with the raindrop.io plugin, look at the automatic description and make changes if necessary, add tags and collection to sync to obsidian
2. Later during my "triaging" in Obsidian I then come back to that bookmark and process it further.
3. After processing the "bookmark" I tag it as done in Obsidian and Raindrop.io

On iPad, a previously-authenticated install is reporting "Can't find variable: Buffer".

My initial setup a few days ago was a little problematic. Initial iPad plugin install (0.0.9) (via BRAT) seemed to work. Then it simply wouldn't pull any bookmarks. I moved to iMac to use Developer Tools to check for messages. It was warning about a problem with the token, so I re-pasted it in, and then pulling bookmarks on iMac worked (and continues to work).

However, on iPad, with the same Obsidian account etc, synced through iCloud, it throws this error and will not pull new bookmarks. I can only sync successfully on Mac.

Anything to do with https://github.com/kaiiiz/obsidian-raindrop-highlights-plugin/blob/c1bbec024b9d06338153f03cd91306eb657c509c/yarn.lock#L217 ?

The Highlights template does not accept my changes. I changed the "set callout =" to be "note" (red), "important" (green). However, the default remains: "danger" (red), and "check" (green). What do I need to do to get my callout types?

Currently the app doesn't scale very well when dealing with a mix of bookmarks that have highlights and those that do not. For instance if you have 400 bookmarks that contain 50 bookmarks with highlights, and 350 without, instead of providing an option to just download those 50 bookmarks with highlights, you'll instead get 400 bookmarks each downloaded into their own separate folder.

What makes this worse is that there is no tag or similar to differentiate these files, so you get a big jumbled mess of notes that you now need to sort though in order to figure out which entries had notes, and which ones do not.

Ideally we should have the option to not download entries that don't contain highlights however if this is not possible then it would be quite helpful to have an option to make the plugin filter out those bookmarks that don't have highlights associated with them and only save the ones that do have highlights into their own files.

Hi, just tested the plugin and I love it. I also love that it´s possible to get all tags but is it possible to format them so that they are usable and visible in the tag pane? I tried it with renaming "Topics::" to "tags::" and adding a "#" before the tag in the template but that didn´t work. What did work was adding a "#" in front of the tag in raindrop.io, but maybe there is a better solution I´m not aware of. Any ideas? Best Regards

Added Permanent Copy data so I can link to it if available. Figured others might like that as well.

• Parses cache ("Permanent Copy") info from the GET response, so it's available to the template renderer.
• Added it to the template instructions, but not to any defaults, since it requires the Raindrop Pro subscription to be useful.

Example: I think this link only redirects successfully if you're already signed into the Raindrop web app in your browser, but it's pretty convenient for that.

{% if cache and cache.status === 'ready' -%}
[Permanent Copy](https://api.raindrop.io/v1/raindrop/{{id}}/cache)
{%- endif %}

Hi,

Thank you for this plugin, I find it incredibly useful! I noticed recently that my mobile version of Obsidian kept crashing on load when indexing the vault and it turns out it is due to there being files with disallowed characters (such as % : ;) and I have tracked these down to Raindrop bookmark titles.

Would it be possible to add in removal/replacement of disallowed characters? Possibly with the option of specifying a replacement character (e.g. - or _).

Many thanks :)

I've added an option to enable/disable the storage of articles in Raindrop collections folders.

If enabled, it's the default behavior. Else, synced articles will be stored in the root of the highlights folder location, and no collections folders will be created.

Hello. Thanks for developing this plugin. I am not a developer so knowledge is limited. In the settings for the plugin the metadata template is greyed out and I am unable to edit. The content template works and I have no issue. Can you suggest a fix for this?

{{collectionTitle}} can be used in templates to get the collection title. I've also added an option to enable/disable the storage of articles in collections folders.

I needed these two features, so maybe others will need them too?

It's my first pull request, I'm not sure how it works, maybe I've not done the things the right way.

Hi,

how can I make sure I get the collection title in the Frontmatter - {{title}} is used for both the title of the page and the collection name - how do I differntiate those?

Thanks, Daniel
