Obsidian Vault Statistics Plugin

Status bar item with vault statistics including the number of notes, files, attachments, and links.

Usage

After the plugin is installed and enabled you will see a new item appear in the status bar showing you the number of notes in your vault.

• Click on the status bar item to cycle through the available statistics.
• Hover over the status bar item to see all of the available statistics.

Advanced Usage

Showing All Statistics

All statistics can be shown by creating and enabling a CSS snippet with the following content.

/* Show all vault statistics. */
.obsidian-vault-statistics--item {
    display: initial !important;
}

Showing Selected Statistics

Similarly to the above, one can show certain statistics using a similar method to the above. Below is a snippet that hides all by the notes and attachments statistics. The snippet can be modified to include more or different statistics.

/* Hide all statistics. */
.obsidian-vault-statistics--item {
    display: none !important;
}

/* Always show the notes and attachments statistics. */
.obsidian-vault-statistics--item-notes,
.obsidian-vault-statistics--item-attachments {
    display: initial !important;
}
