It's not clear to me how to parse and save different kinds of content. I see template variables mentioned in options, but I don't see anything about them in the documentation.
For example, none of the images are pulled down when I try to save this: https://tannerhelland.com/2012/12/28/dithering-eleven-algorithms-source-code.html
All the image tags are relative, but this doesn't seem to be handled and I see incorrect requests trying to be made like this:
plugin:obsidian-read-it-later:37 Fetch API cannot load app://obsidian.md/images/Portal_Companion_Cube.jpg. URL scheme "app" is not supported.

The inbox in the README has a typo in it - ReatItLater should be ReadItLater
Hi!
First of all: great plugin! Very helpful to extract pages for later reading and highlighting. I love the template feature which make using this with my own system a breeze.
Although I do like that the whole content is clipped, I'd like to hide it at first. Preferably by using callouts and collapse them dy default. I couldn't get this to work because article content could have more alineas and only the first alinea would have the > in front.
Is there a way to change this so I can use callouts with the article content?
When click on the capture icon in the address bar, I'm expecting the obsidian clipper to capture the entire page of text.
When click on the capture icon in the address bar, obsidian clipper captured only half of the entire page of text.

When I have this link in the clipboard and choose read it later after pressing Ctrl-P a long vertical line of text is added to the right of the page
I'd like to use obsidian in conjunction with this plugin as kind of a pocket alternative.
As I'm mostly on mobile, using Pocket is much more convenient as I simply share a articel with the app and the rest happens automatically.
With obsidian there are many more steps involved.
I'm not sure of the capabilites for plugins but here's a suggestions how the process could be automated some.
Have a file that's monitored by ReadItLater and when a url is added run the same routine as when executing the "Save clipboard" command.
Afterwards remove the url from the file or flag/tag it as being processed so it doesn't get processed again.
I'd love to have subdirectories for all downloaded articles as this would make deleting them much easier.
Currently I can't simply delete the assets directory as it will contain assets for other articles as well.
Assuming we have 3 Articels saved for reading later like this...
...and I want to delete the current one - Which color is best in a living room? - I now have to manually filter through the assets directory and figure out what images belong to this artikel.
Instead I'd propose to create subdirectories like this:
Now I can simply delete the folder and be done with it.
This could/should probably be an option for the user to configure.
Here is what I made with ios shortcut. Plugins obsidian-ReadItLater and Advanced Obsidian URI should be prerequisite for this ios shortcut.
I simply place this shortcut to the iphone Home Screen. It will detect URL from clipboard when you click on it.

This is EXACTLY what I have been looking for. Thank you so much for making it. Speeds up my workflow tremendously.
That being said, I have a very specific Note Title system that I use. Would it be possible to add a new setting that would allow me to templatize the note title?
Example1 - Article - {{title}}
Example1 - Youtube - {{title}}
Is there a way to save twitter threads?

I'm not real familiar with the code (or TS in general), but it looks like the function at https://github.com/DominikPieper/obsidian-ReadItLater/blob/master/src/helpers/fileutils.ts#L30 should have solved this problem already.

Plugin settings are synched across all devices
Plugin settings are changed on a desktop machine, but are not synced to mobile device. Mobile device still contain default plugin settings.

It seems like two sets of settings are being created in the plugin folder i.e., data.json (PC) and data(1).json (mobile).
I have found a workaround where I copy/paste settings from data.json to data(1).json manually.
However, it would be great if a single data.json is used across all devices.

Current tweet download capability is a bit lacking: it can save tweet text, but no images or videos.
You should add ability to download images (and videos too if possible - tweets with images are more common than videos), and embed them in the tweet md file.
For many tweets, it's the images/videos that is the main content. Inability to download those media defeats the purpose of downloading the tweet for local use, because I still have to click the link to view he media online in the browser. And it takes some time to load as well.
When pasting webpage URL, your plugin already is able to download both text and images embedded. It's expected that it can also download images for tweets.
Hey. Sorry I put this in Discussions beforre seeing the other feature requests in here.
Really loving this plugin.
It would be really good if the youtube template could also clip the youtube channel name and make it a tag.
This would allow me to have my template looking something like this,
[[ReadItLater]] [[Youtube]]
[%videoTitle%]
Channel: [%YoutubeChannel%]
(%videoURL%)
%videoPlayer%
Notes:
So I could simply click read it later, fill in my notes on the video and its done.
After the update a few minutes ago , I suddenly get a message: "Unable to load plugin." Reloading the app and the like didn't work. Before everything worked just fine. I am on Samsung S4 Tablet with Android.
Please repair!;-) Like the app really. In case you need more info, please refer back to me.
Add in the ability to archive completed items or mark them as done so that you know that they have been read and completed.
As your collection of items grows bigger, managing which items you have completed and which ones are still to be read/processed becomes harder. Having a way to archive or mark completed items will make sorting through things a lot easier and will increase the usability of this plugin.

Example parsing from https://dns.coffee:
[[ReadItLater]] [[Article]]
# home - DNS Coffee
DNS Coffee?
DNS Coffee collects and archives stats from DNS [Zone files](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zone_file) in order to provide insights into the growth and changes in DNS over time.
When I modify the template to use the article url in the body:
[[ReadItLater]] [[Article]]
# [%articleTitle%](%articleURL%)
%articleContent%
# [%articleTitle%](%articleURL%)
It will then parse correctly:
[[ReadItLater]] [[Article]]
# home - DNS Coffee

Embedded Bilibili videos will play automatically, and videos in reading mode and editing mode will play simultaneously.
It gets worse when I preview a lot of pages with bilibili embedded videos at the same time.
So I want the embedded bilibili video not to play automatically when I open the page.
Add "&autoplay=0" to cancel auto-play
For example:
<iframe width="${this.settings.bilibiliEmbedWidth}" height="${this.settings.bilibiliEmbedHeight}" src="https://player.bilibili.com/player.html?bvid=${n}&autoplay=0" scrolling="no" border="0" frameborder="no" framespacing="0" allowfullscreen="true"></iframe>I'm not sure if anyone needs the video autoplay feature when opening the page.
Maybe make a button in the settings page to switch this setting on and off?
(And Thank you for creating the plugin, it helped me a lot.)
When I run a YouTube link through the plugin, with a valid API key set in settings, I expect it to save into Obsidian. e.g. this link saves successfully: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAq6vFKOcXc
When saving some YouTube links, with a valid API key set in settings, the plugin throws an error and does not save the link. For example, this link throws an error: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L32tZMbSZI
This is the error thrown:
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'map')
at Jt.parseApiResponse (plugin:obsidian-read-it-later:53:15620)
at async Jt.prepareNote (plugin:obsidian-read-it-later:53:13522)
at async Et.processClipboard (plugin:obsidian-read-it-later:140:1164)
at async Object.callback (plugin:obsidian-read-it-later:140:836)
This occurs even when the template does not contain any strings that require access to the YouTube API.
Have the following YouTube note template title in plugin settings:
Youtube - %title%
Also have the following YouTube note template in plugin settings:
# [%videoTitle%](%videoURL%)
## Video
(%videoURL%)
%videoPlayer%
## Description
%videoDescription%
## Notes
-
#readitlater/unread
The %videoDescription% string is optional -- the bug occurs without it.

Add in the ability to prompt on adding duplicate item and also remove duplicate items.
Right now if you add in a lot of items to your collection it can get messy. This can increase the chances of you adding duplicate items into your read it later collection. It would be nice to have a way to warn upon adding an item you already have in your collection as well as the ability to go through your collection and find duplicate items that you many want to remove.

Hi and first of all thank you for the plugin! It's such an elegant solution for saving content into obsidian.
I had the idea of using this plugin to solve Obsidian's longstanding problem (as far as I know) of not having an iOS share sheet option, see for instance https://forum.obsidian.md/t/feature-ios-share-sheet-extension/14873/43. A possible apple Shortcut workflow could go: copy current webpage url > open obsidian > trigger the plugin with the copied link.
Just an idea! Kudos again to the plugin.
Obsidian reports readitlater version 0.0.7
On github: latest version 0.0.6
Converting URLs from the clipboard to MD files is a great idea. My requirement is to batch convert multiple URLs from the clipboard to MD files, so that I can download the articles that need to be downloaded in one place. I think this is a very practical feature
The plugin automatically recognizes multiple URLs of the clipboard and downloads them in bulk

Expect ReadItLater to create a markdown file from a YouTube page without an error.
When using ReadItLater plugin to create markdown file for YouTube page, I receive an error. This has recently started and has changed from its previous exhibited behavior. Showing error screenshots attached from Obsidian console.
Iโve deleted and reinstalled the plugin after closing out Obsidian and restarting computer.
Iโve started with the templates as they come with the plugin (and how I had them set up previously that had worked).
Iโve tried a Twitter page and other articles with no issue. Only seeing the trouble on YouTube pages. Iโve tried changing my browser defaults around to see if that may have any bearing on this, and havenโt noticed any differences.

Currently the size of video embeds cannot be changed. There should be an option to change the video embed size vs setting it statically.
Add in a settings option that allows one to change the default size for video embeds. This can make taking notes easier if you need to work on bigger screens or smaller screens where the default video embed size doesn't work as well for your needs, or if the text in the video is very small.
Manually editing the HTML to change the embed size.

Hi,

I'm getting the following instead of embedded images:

#bug unable to generate the textsnippet title correctly
The plugin always generate the %date% title instead of what I set
Please add feature to Save web images as attachments not to links to it on web.
This is usefull for example for offline viewing article.
Sorry for my english.
so far i have been able to back up tiktok video links. Since yesterday only the name of the content creator, url appears and the note: Sign up to follow creators, give videos likes and view comments.
Where can I enter my credentials for tiktok so that link generation works again.
Thanks for your help
This plugin is helpful to me : ). And when the information accumulated, I wish I could read or clean some articles of one subject first, which need a classify work done before. So is it possible to add tags when pushing links to Inbox without manually editing note?
Hi Dominik,
thank you for the great plugin. I use it very often, just to fill up content into my 2nd brain, Zettelkasten or how ever you want to call it. So it is really important for my workflow. I think a short time ago I updated the plugin and now it is not working. Don't know, if there is a bug or something else. I am using Samsung S4 tablet with Android. All software should be up to date.
The URL of the article is https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/SSX2sEcKCzPMPEDDlV5m7Q. It's written in Chinese. Pocket, MarkDownload, and many other apps are able to successfully capture the content of the website.
This screenshot display the result of MarkDownload:
On the other hand, ReadItLater cannot capture images from the article URL.

It would be great if I could add a date variable in a customizable format to the titles of imports. I tend to prepend all my sources with the date I imported them.
In my workflow I add links to the note after saving it, I need to look for a note in a folder to open it. It would be cool if we had a checkbox setting to open notes after saving.
Add the ability to insert the tweet's publish date. I'm proposing %tweetPublishDate%. This is for similar reasons to why I wanted %videoPublishDate% on YouTube #105 but this time with %tweetPublishDate%.
I know Twitter's embed API is limited but it does always include the publish date in the same spot of its html response (right before </a></blockquote>). This is how I got it working:
.replace(/%tweetPublishDate%/g, this.parseTweetPublishDate(response.html));
...
parseTweetPublishDate(tContent: string){
const splitContent = tContent.split("</a></blockquote>")
const pubDate = splitContent[0].substring(splitContent[0].lastIndexOf('>') + 1)
return moment(pubDate).format(this.settings.dateContentFmt)
}I just want someone else's opinion. I'm pretty sure this will work consistently but there are some other ways I could get it. It even gets the right date when another tweet is quoted and there are multiple instances of </a></blockquote> in the embed html response.
I know there are talks of using Nitter to get and download the images, but this is completely over my head #91 (comment).

Thanks for this plugin, that I have started to use to capture articles and text snippets.
I would suggest to include an option to capture YouTube and Twitter links as markdown links. They are rendered by the Simple Embeds plugin.

Thank you for the plug-in. It'd be great if one could change the font for preview mode. I like to use a mono-spaced font for notes and it would be great if I could differentiate read-it-later-notes/texts visually from the rest of my notes. It's really more a look-and-feely thing but I would greatly appreciate it as it would help me to get into "reading mode". Just like the Longform plugin solves this.
I really like this plugin! Would it be possible to add video website Bilibili (https://www.bilibili.com/) into the scope, so that it could be treated like YouTube note, thanks.
