2.1.14

Compatibility with Obsidian 1.7.2

• #160 Plugin broken in obsidian 1.7.2

2.1.13

#156 - improved support for index-note-based folder notes

• metadata of index-note-based folder notes are treated as parent folder metadata and can be used for sorting, if configured in the updated settings window
• backward compatible, no config changes required if no need to take advantage of the new feature

2.1.12

New syntax for matching dates in specific format: dd-Mmm-yyyy

• #151 - Sort notes in dd-Mmm-yyyy format
  • usage example in a comment under 151

2.1.11

Full compatibility with Obsidian 1.6.3

• #147 A race condition (first observed for Obsidian 1.6.3) could cause the plugin not to apply the custom sort automatically on vault opening / loading or app (re)loading

2.1.10

Minor polishing: let the plugin be a good Obsidian citizen when it gets uninstalled or removed:
#137 - Impose File Explorer refresh with standard Obsidian sorting when the plugin gets disabled or uninstalled.

2.1.9

Compatibility with Obsidian 1.6.0

• #145: 1.6 breaks plugin
• Obsidian 1.6.0 introduced some internal breaking changes. This release contains the necessary adjustments to the plugin implied by Obsidian 1.6.0

2.1.8

• #132 - (experimental) support for two new sorting orders: advanced recursive modified and advanced recursive created
  • as their names suggest, they are extensions of advanced modified and advanced created, respectively. Folder modified and created dates are determined by recursively scanning of all descendants
• removal of experimental not working sorting methods: aaa-z and a-zzz
• added alias unicode-charcode for the existing vsc-unicode order to be more descriptive for non VSC users

2.1.7

Bugfix for #131 - Obsidian 1.5.4 (insider build) introduced breaking changes around File Explorer JS structure which prevented this custom-sort plugin from working.

• fix backward compatible with versions earlier that 1.5.4

2.1.5

Two experimental features (they are subject to change or removal, exposed for testing and collecting feedback)

• aaa-z and a-zzz sort orders (uppercase first, alphanumeric order and lowercase first, alphanumeric)
• vsc-unicode sort order, which is equivalent to what VS Code refers to as 'unicode' sorting (which name is arbitrary and confusing, yet familar to VS Code users)

2.1.4

#126 - Allow to eliminate the ambiguity of four dots ....

• by default .... means three-dots (a wildcard) with trailing dot
• use ./... syntax to impose leading dot followed by three-dots (the wildcard)

#127 - support for scenarios when file basename and folder name are the same and their relative order is undetermined by other sorting criteria (e.g. by modified / created dates)

• by default the last-resort last-level implicit sorting gives priority to a file in the described case
• new syntax introduced files-first and folders-first to allow explicit controlling of the order, e.g. < a-z, files first
