WebClip Markdown for Obsidian is a Web Clipper for Obsidian, a Firefox extension.
It converts web pages to Markdown format and saves them in Obsidian.
Note that images and Twitter tweets are still URLs, so they will no longer be available if the original data is deleted.
The Obsidian plugin Media Sync can be used to save images locally.
This Bookmarklet can be used to convert web pages into Markdown format and save them in Obsidian.
The bookmarklet has been tested with Google Chrome, Safari and Firefox on Mac; Microsoft Edge only works with full screen (isFullPage = true).
You can customize it by modifying the following parts of the Bookmarklet.
/* when 'true', select full page */
const isFullPage = false; // when true, select full page
/* Optional vault name */
const vault = ""; // Vault name can be specified
/* Optional folder name such as "Clippings/" */
const folder = ""; // can specify default folder
/* Optional skip URL and classes */
const skipClasses = []; // Elements can be skipped using a combination of URL and class name
/* example
const skipClasses = [
{
url: "https://example.com",
classes: [
"module--detail-morenews",
"module--share"
],
},
{
url: "https://news.example.com",
classes: ["snsButton", "articleButton"],
},
