1.22.0

Linter v1.22.0

This release is mostly made up of bug fixes focusing on some older bugs and trying to fix up several issues that were reported around use in Live Preview and Reading mode. This release also includes a change to Custom Commands that allows you to have it run properly with Advanced Tables since Custom Commands now run after the cache has updated for a file.

Features

• Added the ability to make sure that there is just 1 space after the blockquote indicators even if there are multiple spaces after the blockquote indicator. This will not affect spaces before list items and checklists that are inside a blockquote.
• Added the help url to the manifest which points to the documentation site
  • Thanks @TfTHacker !
  • If the documentation side could be made clearer, please let us know
• Updated how Custom Commands are run to make sure that they run after the cache updates if the file is updated to make sure that custom commands that do rely on the cache have updated cache info when they run

Bugs

• Fixed URL regex not allowing # to be in part of the ending part of the path
• Fixed an issue with the translator helper where it was not properly mapping between some languages and their source files
• Fixed updates in Live Preview not updating the right places in the YAML frontmatter
  • Please let us know if this is not fixed or if other issues arise in Live Preview or Reading mode
• Fixed Custom Commands taking focus away from the currently active window and not adding it back when you have lint on active file change enabled
• Fixed an issue where Live Preview and Reading mode frontmatter were not getting their displays updated right away once the Linter updated the file
• Fixed Re-Index Footnotes moving the footnotes to the end of the file
  • The sorting of footnotes and moving footnotes to the end of the file is done by Move Footnotes to End of Document
• Fixed YAML Key Sort affecting keys that were listed in priority sort order that were not base level YAML keys
  • The sort currently only works on the base level YAML keys

1.21.0

Linter v1.21.0

This release is mostly made up of bug fixes, but it also goes ahead and adds two new rules Add Blank Line After YAML and Add Default Language for Code Fences. There is also an addition of the ability to run custom commands on folder and vault lint. Do note that this is a slow operation and may not play well with some other plugins that do not work with the sidebar.

Features

• Add Blank Line After YAML was added for adding a blank line after the YAML frontmatter if it does not end the file and there is not already at least one blank line after it
• Add Default Language for Code Fences was added to add a default code block language to code blocks that do not have a language set already
• Custom Commands can now be run on folder and vault lint
  • This process is slow since it requires opening each file in the folder/vault in the sidebar tab

• Fixed > in Blockquote Style that is not a blockquote indicator getting modified
