Idea: Ability to hide specific note titles

[leah-ferguson]

Would it be possible to add the ability to hide specific notes using a specifiable field property (YAML-based or works with Dataview preferred) or tag?

Use case example:

I've been using Obsidian as a mixture of PKM and daily notes. This includes having notes on people so that I can link them in my daily notes (eg. 11:00 AM Meeting with [[Jane Smith]]) While I don't mind sharing PKM or daily note titles on Obsidian, I'd prefer to keep some notes (like a person's name) private while I'm editing their note.

Hi thank you for this suggestion. I love this idea. It is definitely on the list now.

I'd also like a feature like this. I am rather leaning towards a simple "ignore this folder" setting, e.g. for the folder where I put my notes on people. 😉

+1 on this for me. I'd love an option to ignore folders where my journal notes are since that's got some personal stuff in the titles I'd rather not share. A tag to query or something like obsidian's publish: true/false yaml value would also be good for individual notes that aren't always in the same folders to use the folder option.

I don't want to have to remember to disconnect because I know I'll forget 🙈

Just leaving my support of this FR here. It could be nice to have a "blacklist" of folders in the plugin's settings, so that we don't have to remember inputting a dataview field or tag to the note, even when doing quick capture of sensitive information. A whitelist would also work, too.

+1 for this feature. Just curious, whats the reason the PR was closed without merging?
