Format

Plugin Support

TBD

Quickstart

  1. Fork the Repo
  2. Clone a copy to your drive
  3. Open that cloned copy up in Obsidian
  4. Add Folders that match the "high-level" hierarchy of the source. In this case, Characters, Classes, Equipment and Services, would all be folders
  5. Inside those folders, place your source material, and split them up with note compose core plugin where it makes sense. Notes should not be too long, nor too short.
  6. Commit early, commit often.
  7. Submit PR's early and often.

Tables

The Tables within the Source and the Wiki are in a format not paste-a-ble into Obsidian.

You will need to take the following steps:

  1. In your browser, right click/select the table and select inspect element, inspect source, or similar. Different Browsers will have different terminology.
  2. Select the highest level HTML element that shows the entire table being selected.

  1. Right click/select on that element and look for a Copy -> HTML or Copy HTML option. Select this option, and the table will not be in your clipboard.

  2. Go to tablesgenerator.com

  3. Go to File -> Paste Table Data

  4. Paste the Table in the Box, then select Load

  1. The HTML Table is now a Markdown up top. Select Generate under the top table if you already have old data down on the bottom. There are optional configurations available for how the markdown table is generated.
  2. Select Copy to Clipboard on the Right.
  3. Paste the Markdown Table into Obsidian.
