@ Symbol Linking

Adds the ability to link using the @ (the At Symbol) in Obsidian. Can limit @ linking to to specific folders e.g. People/.

Supports aliases (nicknames for a file) that you can set in the properties/metadata of a note via the alias or aliases field.

Settings

• Limit @ links to only source links from specific directories, like your People/ directory.
• Can create a new note from a template in a specified directory if no @ link is found.
• Turn on compatibility mode to enable @ linking when plugins that show suggestions like the Tasks plugin are enabled.
• Optionally include the @ symbol in the final link text, e.g. [@evan](./evan.md) as opposed to [evan](./evan.md)

Uses the link type specified by your Obsidian "Files & Links" -> "Use [[Wikiliks]]" setting.

Hotkeys

Supports up, down, enter, and escape keys for navigating the link search popup.

Installing

Search "@ symbol linking" via the built-in community plugin browser in Obsidian.
