Feature Request: Add a button to give quick access to the plugin repo on GitHub

Open XMB-7 opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

It would be more convenient when there is a button for each third-party plugin in the installed plugin list, giving quick access to the plugin repo. Thanks for reading. 图片

Currently, you can click on the plugin item anywhere other than the buttons, and it will take you to the plugin browser, which then has a repository link. Is there a reason you're not doing that?

Obsidian does not support going forward and backward when exploring third-party plugins. Once you go into a certain plugin homepage, when going back, you'll always be moved to the top of the plugin list, so you have to scroll down to where you were to continue exploring other plugins. It's kind of annoying. I think it would be more convenient to have a button giving quick access to the plugin repo. A typical use case is there are several plugins going to be updated and in order to check what's new, you just want to scroll down once to find them all one by one and easily click on a button outside their homepage to jump to their repos.

In that case, you probably want the Plugin Changelogs plugin: it adds a button to each plugin that lets you view the changelogs in Obsidian, and it has a Github logo button that opens the repository. In addition, closing the popup doesn't affect your scroll position in the plugin list.
