โ๏ธ Exclude path glob patterns (Internal link complement)
Definitions¶
- Glob patterns to exclude internal links using advanced wildcard matching
- More flexible than prefix patterns but with higher processing overhead
- Supports complex patterns like
**/attachments
,**/*.{png,jpg}
,Private/**
- You can set multiple patterns by separating line breaks
- default: (empty)
Performance Considerations¶
Performance Warning
Glob patterns add processing overhead during file indexing. Use โ๏ธ Exclude prefix path patterns (Internal link complement) when possible for better performance.
Pattern Examples¶
Exclude files in attachments folders at any level¶
**/attachments/**
Exclude specific file types¶
**/*.{png,jpg,gif}
**/*.tmp
Exclude files in directories at vault root¶
Private/**
Templates/**
Complex patterns¶
**/attachments/**
**/*.{png,jpg,gif,pdf}
Private/**
Templates/drafts/**
Implementation Details¶
- Invalid patterns are safely ignored with console warnings
- Applied with OR logic - if any pattern matches, the internal link is excluded
- Both prefix patterns and glob patterns are applied (links matching either are excluded)
