obsidian-omnisearch VS obsidian-export

Mobile Document Scanning using QuickScan iOS app and OCR search with Omnisearch and Text Extractor: I was a power user of the Scannable app by Evernote for capturing scans of receipts and documents, so moving on from this was going to be tough. But QuickScan has the same functionality (OCR scanning) and has quick outputs to where my scans are stored in my Obsidian folder. Using Omnisearch, searching my scans feels just as intuitive and snappy as what Evernote used to feel like for me.

In the past I have used Omnisearch which I have found to be an improvement.

Combine this with my favorite Obsidian search plugin Omnisearch and you end up making this bunch of random chat threads useful - now I can link and tag across, and source them for new ideas.

The Omnisearch plugin might be what you need. No AI but weighted results depending on where your query words are found (filename, titles, frequency...). It works well for me, it's my primary way to find notes.

The tag system works well for GTD workflows and organization in general. Default search isn't the best but the Omnisearch plugin fixes that.

Also - and speaking about plugins in general - the best way to get an issue resolved is to ask it on the GitHub page. If the plugin is maintained, its developer will usually gladly help you solve your problem :) https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/issues

I think Obsidian Omnisearch can help you with that.

The Omnisearch plug-in for Obsidian does search in PDFs and images via OCR.

In my opinion it is absolutely possible. The developer of the Omnisearch plugin now works on PDF indexing - https://github.com/scambier/obsidian-omnisearch/releases/tag/1.6.5-beta.3.

Found: https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export but hope this can be part of a single solution.

I use this obsidian-export CLI program to convert prior to pushing to my repo and it's been working pretty well. This gives me a read-only version of my notes that is accessible from devices I don't have obsidian on (work laptop, for example).

If you limit your use of third party plugins, you can always use https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export for this as well. I originally built it for exactly this use case (but now also use it as a crucial step in my pipeline to publish content to my own website)

It came from here! https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export

Worth noting I maintain a project which does exactly this: https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export

I have similar folders to [Oudwin](https://www.reddit.com/user/Oudwin/)... - dm - _inbox - assets - checklist - communications - research-reference - elements - sessions Additionally, I have had reasonable success using [obsidian-export](https://github.com/zoni/obsidian-export) to export my Obsidian vault to CommonMark. From there you have more options. I then build html pages using [mdbook](https://rust-lang.github.io/mdBook/) to control the information that is revealed to players. I am playing with using [MkDocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/) to see if it offers more control/flexibility. Regardless, the /elements folder contains all the lore chunks of the world including information I keep on the PCs. The /communications and /sessions folders can contain info with links to /elements that are revealed as needed. I make heavy use of transclusion ![[CoolThingFormAnotherFolder]] to keep it a bit more elegant and some custom styles are needed to make it how it look how I wish.

I have had reasonable success using obsidian-export to export a vault to CommonMark. From there you have more options. I am using it for world-building in D&D and I then build html pages using mdbook to control the information that is revealed to players.

Shameless plug: obsidian-export. It will convert [[WikiLinks]] and ![[Embeds]] to plain Markdown (among a few other things) so you'll always have a way to go back if Obsidian doesn't work out the way you hoped.

So really you can't get what you want at all. You could try an external tool like this to export your notes to commonmark which is more widely supported. Ultimately if you are changing the path to files outside of obsidian (meaning they won't be automatically updated) you will break links. So maybe your best bet is to use wikilinks + an export tool.
