🕸 Maps of Content plugin

This will be particularly of interest to Zettelkasten/PKM users, who are used to the idea of 'Maps of Content' (MOC) to be a contents page into a topic.

The plugin has a single command /make MOC that runs iteratively, asking the user for search term(s) to look for across all notes. It then creates (or updates) the MOC note, inserting [[note links]] to all notes it finds with those search term(s). These are by default inserted in order of most to least recently updated, though other sorting is possible.

Configuration

On macOS, click the gear button on the 'MOCs' line in the Plugin Preferences panel to configure this plugin. Each setting has an explanation:

• Match whole words? Should search terms only match whole words? For non-European languages, this may need to be set to false.
• Folders to exclude List of folders to exclude in these commands. May be empty. (Note that @Trash, @Templates and @Archive are always excluded.)
• Heading level Heading level (1-5) to use when writing search term headings in notes.
• Subheading prefix Subheading text to go before the search term. (Default is 'Notes matching'.)
• Prefix for note links Optional string to put at the start of each note link. (Default is '- '.)
• Sort order for results Whether results are sorted alphabetically (the default), by created date, or by last updated date
• Show empty matches? If no matches of the search term(s) are found, setting this true will still show a heading for the term(s).

On iOS/iPadOS run the /MOC: update plugin settings command instead.
