FR: Different lint settings per folder
Thank you for the great work! I would love to be able to set different lint settings for my templates, my fleeting notes, and my main notes. Apologies if this is already possible, I haven't been able to find that option, and I would have expected it in the general settings.
Hey @Melizenn . There is currently no way to disable or enable rules on a folder by folder basis. As of right now, you can disable rules if you want to have a master list that are only run for specific files. However that has the con of having to include the the rule aliases to disable in the YAML frontmatter (see https://platers.github.io/obsidian-linter/usage/disabling-rules/#yaml-frontmatter). But if you are looking to have a different set of settings almost like a different profile of settings, that currently does not exist. There is a request to be able to have multiple profiles for settings in the Linter (see #555 and #1147). However this is not something that has been requested to work on a folder by folder level.
I really like the idea of separate profiles!
If that functionality was implemented, the "Folders to ignore" and "Files to ignore" sections could be re-purposed to apply specific profiles. You could create a built-in Disabled profile to support the current "ignore" behavior and apply it by default to maintain backwards compatibility.
