Open FelipeRearden opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hello @derwish-pro !!!!

First of all, thank you very much for this plug-in. I found out your plug-in recently and you solve a huge problem in my workflow.

My feature request is related to my workflows in Obsidian.

My workflow

One of my main uses for Obsidian is to write. I import parts of books, highlights, articles to Obsidian and create many notes based on these sources.

This way, I have to do much transfer between notes and I always use internal links to keep the reference. It's very important to know the orign because I mix chunks of different sources inside one single note.

To help with this I use the Quickadd Plug-in to stack a bunch of Obsidian Hotkeys (commands) into one hotkey to increase my productivity.

In fact, I use Find and Replace in Selection hotkey with QuickAdd Screen Shot 2021-07-24 at 08 24 15 Screen Shot 2021-07-24 at 08 24 58

For this specific usage, I use find and replace to add a aliases to the backlink. This is amazing!!!!!

Feature Request

My feature request is to be able to create more than one Find and Replace templates I have others workflows that needs different Find and Replace settings.

  • Create more than one Find and Replace
  • Be able to apply an Hotkey to each new find and replace.

As a source of information about this, Hotkeys for Specific Files has a feature that make possible to define different hotkeys for each file.

  • It is the same principle applied to 'Find and Replace' Screen Shot 2021-07-24 at 08 32 26

I hope you my suggestion. Would be a game-changer for me.

Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks for reading this and have a great day!
