🐞 Common Technical Issues & Fixes

While Obsibrain is designed to be robust, the flexible nature of Obsidian means that occasionally things can go out of sync. Here are the most common issues and how to resolve them quickly.

Dashboards are blank or not loading

The Cause: Often caused by a community plugin (like Dataview) being disabled or needing an update.

The Fix:

  1. Check Dependencies: Go to Settings > Community Plugins and ensure Dataview, Templater, and Obsibrain are all toggled ON.
  2. Run Health Check: Restart Obsidian. Our Vault Self-Healing system will run automatically on startup and attempt to restore any broken renderers.
  3. Update: Use the Obsibrain: Check and install updates command to ensure you have the latest script versions.

🔄 The "Magic" Fix: Reload Obsidian

If your dashboards look slightly "off," tasks aren't appearing where they should, or you've just updated a core plugin, the fastest solution is often a simple reload.

The Pro-Tip:

  1. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl/Cmd + P).
  2. Search for and run: "Obsibrain: Reload Obsidian".

What it does: This command triggers a full refresh of the Obsidian window. It re-initializes the Obsibrain "brain," runs the Vault Self-Healing check, and ensures all your Dataview renderers are up-to-date. It's the "turning it off and on again" of the productivity world!
