Reminders Settings¶
Philosophy
Stay on top of your schedule. Reminder settings control how and when the plugin alerts you about upcoming events using Obsidian's system notifications.
Notification Controls¶
Access these settings in Full Calendar Settings → Reminders.
- Enable Reminders: The global master toggle for the reminder system.
- Enable Default Reminder: When turned on, every new event created will automatically have a reminder attached.
- Default Reminder Time: Set the offset (in minutes) before an event starts for the notification to trigger (default:
10).
Interaction Behavior¶
- Show Event in Status Bar: If enabled, the time remaining until your next event is shown in the bottom status bar.
- Highlight Current/Next Event: Visually distinguishes the active event in the calendar grid.
System Integration¶
- Notification Deduplication: The plugin automatically manages notification state to prevent duplicate alerts during Obsidian restarts. See: Data Integrity.
- Reminder Modal: Clicking a notification opens a focused view of the event with options to open the source note or dismiss the alert.
FCR Reminder Companion Settings¶
For users utilizing the offline-first FCR Reminder Companion, the following settings configure active synchronization:
- Enable Companion: Toggles the synchronization pipeline on or off. When enabled, local Obsidian reminders are automatically suppressed, handing full alerting responsibility over to the companion daemon to prevent duplicate alerts.
- API URL: The loopback address of the companion app daemon (defaults to
http://127.0.0.1:45677). The plugin performs liveness status checks on this endpoint during startup.
