Installing Nectenda from the community plugin browser, and signing in.

Before you start

Obsidian 1.13.7 or later, on a computer, phone or tablet.
A vault to install it in. Nectenda is installed per vault, like any Obsidian plugin.

Steps

In Obsidian, open Settings and choose Community plugins.
If community plugins are off, choose Turn on community plugins.
Choose Browse, and search for Nectenda.
Choose Nectenda, then Install.
When it has installed, choose Enable.

If Obsidian is already open on this device, you can also go straight to the plugin's page with this link.

Troubleshooting

I cannot find Nectenda when I search

Check that you are searching Community plugins, not Core plugins. If it still does not appear, update Obsidian: the plugin needs version 1.13.7 or later.

Do I need to install it on every device?

Yes, in every vault on every device where you want the shared folders. Each one signs in separately.
