Yet another movie database post question

1) The Sortable plug in doesn't sort the "Date watched" filter as expected (I've tried rearranging the date in different formats, apart from ISO 8601 and changing the Date Format but I'm to believe that I'm missing something obvious)

I'm completely stressed out trying to fix this so I hope one of you would be able to help me. I'm trying to create a home page of sorts so I can navigate my files without using the folders. (SEE COMMENTS)

I'm not really sure what you're after but I think you want to combine Folder Notes with Waypoint.
Just checked out obsidian recently and a big problem for me is that browsing through notes is very difficult. What do other people do about this?
2 projects | /r/ObsidianMD | 14 Jun 2023

I moved from Evernote and Apple notes and it was definitely a transition to Obsidian, visually and in organization. Evernote for instance had a card homepage, but I was able to find things like Folder Note Plugin that achieved card view of folders and gave ability to design them with CSS.
Any way to get a note in the folder like ZimWiki?

Plugin for displaying a canvas (MOC) when opening a folder
1 project | /r/ObsidianMD | 31 May 2023

I'm looking for a plugin pretty much similar to Folder Note but that would allow me to attach a canvas to a folder so it could be used as a more visually engaging Map Of Contents to navigate through the notes and concepts.

If you're talking about the middle column with the "subjects" split into different folders and pictures, I think it is done with this plugin.

You might want to have a look at waypoint, possibly with folder note too. This will generate contents for folders (and sub folders if you want) automatically when you add, rename, or delete notes.

Not sure what approach you're stumbling with re: images, but they definitely support them, but you can literally just drop an image onto the editor and it'll embed it, including locating it where you've specified that attachments should go.
The default file per folder is not built-in, but there is a handy community plugin[1] which does it.
