Auto Mover X

An enhanced version of Auto Note Mover for Obsidian with advanced multi-tag support and batch operations.

What's New

Multi-Tag Rules with AND/OR Logic

Each rule can now include multiple tags with two matching modes:

• Match any tag (OR): Note matches if it has at least one of the specified tags
• Match all tags (AND): Note matches only if it has all of the specified tags

Examples:

• Move notes with both #project AND #completed to an archive folder
• Move notes with either #work OR #office to a work folder

Batch Folder Scanning

New commands to process multiple notes at once:

• Scan folder and move notes: Select a folder and move all matching notes recursively
• Scan folder (dry-run): Preview what would be moved without making changes

How It Works

1. Create rules with destination folder, tags, and/or title patterns
2. Choose tag match mode (AND/OR) for multi-tag rules
3. When a note matches a rule, it automatically moves to the destination folder

Rules are checked in order from top to bottom. The note moves to the first matching rule's folder.

Commands

Command	Description
Move the note	Manually trigger move for the active note
Toggle Auto-Manual	Switch between Automatic and Manual trigger modes
Scan folder and move notes	Batch move all matching notes in a folder
Scan folder (dry-run)	Preview batch operation without moving files

Rule Configuration

1. Set the destination folder
2. Add one or more tags (with # prefix) and/or a title pattern (regex)
3. Choose tag match mode:
   • Match any tag (OR) — matches if note has at least one tag
   • Match all tags (AND) — matches only if note has all tags

Examples

AND Mode: Archive Completed Projects

Move notes with BOTH #project AND #done to Archive/Projects:

• Tags: #project, #done
• Match mode: Match all tags (AND)

Result:

• #project #done — Moved
• #project only — Not moved
• #done only — Not moved

OR Mode: Consolidate Work Notes

Move notes with EITHER #work OR #office to Work/:

• Tags: #work, #office
• Match mode: Match any tag (OR)

Result:

• #work — Moved
• #office — Moved
• #personal — Not moved

Triggers

Automatic: Moves notes when you create, edit, or rename them.

Manual: Only moves notes when you run the command.

Notes

• Attached files are not moved but remain linked in the note
• Add AutoNoteMover: disable in frontmatter to exclude a note from auto-moving
• Use dry-run before batch operations to preview changes

Migration

If migrating from the original Auto Note Mover, your settings are automatically converted:

• Single tag becomes tags: [tag]
• tagMatchMode defaults to any (same behavior as before)
