Hi,
Is there any way to show the full path in the name of a note?
I read several posts on this topic and I think I understand the pros and cons; but if this feature could be made optional it wouldn't be a problem for those who don't need it.
At the moment, as patch, I add to the title of each note the abbreviated notebook name.
Thank you.

I did not know this plugin, thank you very much for your suggestion. But I don't need the other functionalities and adding a plugin just to show the path of the notes seems excessive to me. I try to keep the application as simple and light as possible.
Regards.
I'd like this feature as well. Sometimes I search for a note, find it, (I have over 3,000), and would like to know what folder it is in. I can search up and down my > 100 folders and subfolders and hopefully, I can eventually find it. I'd like to know where it is and also where I should be saving similar stuff. For those of us who rely on folders more than tags, not having the folder path is like not having the tags for tag users.
I don't care where it is, just would really like to know where I put things so I can find it easier next time.
Hi @SteveShank. If I understood correctly, the functionality you need (when you search a note) is the one shown in the image above. It works only in search mode, at least in my case, on a Windows 10 PC.
I need to see the folder name always, not only in search mode.
Greetings.
I apologize because maybe I am not understanding well, or I am not expressing myself well. English is not my native language (surely you noticed that already ). There are two situations:
Search mode: Joplin shows the folder name (or notebook) that contains the note. Very good .
Normal mode (no active search): Joplin shows only the name of the note, but not the containing folder. Not good, for me .
I need to see the folder name in normal mode (2), not only in search mode (1).
If all three panels are visible I can see the folder, but many times I need only the editing panel visible and the other two hidden.
I have no experience with Joplin on Mac, but I guess there are some differences with Windows.
Search mode
Normal mode
Editing in this way I do not know to which folder the note belongs.
I agree it should be everywhere. I disagree that it is the way I like it in search mode. I want the full path. Or if you like, breadcrumbs. I cannot understand why anyone would ever not want to know where they are. Turning on the show full path is what I always do when given the option. For example, under a business folder I have business subfolders for different projects, which have clients for subfolders. Seeing client X doesn't tell me if this was in project A or B or for Business X or Y. I want to see Business/busname/clients/clientx. Even if I need to scroll.
We had this info in the title bar at some point but that was removed for some reason. Maybe it's a matter of giving plugins access to the title bar so that it can be customised.
I don't NEED this. I WANT this. Even without it, Joplin is great. But yes, my left panel of notebooks has notebooks, and subnotebooks and often sub-sub-notebooks. It is very much an outline system. It has personal stuff, research and business stuff all in a single file. I have notes on Sextus Empiricus writings, clippings from news, vendors for home repair, detailed notes on what I've done (project notes) for many clients with notebooks for each client. I even have notes for when certain programs will come out on streaming media.
Under business I have software under that I've got subfolders for various softwares. Joplin has 19 notes.
Is there a plan to implement full path to note anywhere on the UI, without using a plugin like note tab because notetab is totally not working with my layout, and II need to have it expand to see the breadcrumbs thing.
