Go Upper Page

This plugin allows users to quickly navigate to a specified "parent" page by utilizing a custom property in the page's front matter.

How to Use

1. Install the Plugin: Download and install the Go Up plugin in your Obsidian vault through the community plugins section.

2. Add "up" Property: In your note, include an up property in the front matter.
   

   For example:

   ---
   up: "[[ParentNote]]"
   ---
   

   Replace ParentNote with the link to the page you wish to navigate to.
   

   or you can use Multiple Pages in "up" Property like this
   

   ---
   up:
    - "[[ParentNote1]]"
    - "[[ParentNote2]]"
   ---
   

3. Set a Hotkey: Open Settings → Hotkeys, search for "Go Up", and bind the command you want (see Commands below).
   I recommend Cmd + Shift + U to navigate to the specified parent page.

Commands

The plugin adds two commands you can bind to separate hotkeys, depending on whether you want the current note to stay open:

Command	Behavior
Navigate to parent page	Replaces the current note with the parent. If the current note is pinned, it is kept open instead. If the parent is already open in another tab, that tab is focused and the current note is closed (no duplicate tab).
Navigate to parent page in new tab	Keeps the current note open. If the parent is already open, focus simply switches to it; otherwise the parent opens in a new tab next to the current note.

When the up property lists multiple parents, a picker is shown first and the chosen parent then follows the behavior above.

Customize your own parent property

go to setting tab "Go Up" and fill out Parent property to use "parent" notes.
