To make encrypted notes more resilient, starting from v2.0.0, the plugin has taken a new direction in how it works. It no longer encrypts selections of text within your notes, instead, it opts in to creating an always encrypted note file.
The advantages of this new approach are:
- Your note contents are always encrypted on disk.
- Encrypted bytes are hidden away from the user making it difficult to accidentally corrupt the encryption and thus making the note un-decryptable.
- Encrypted notes are easily identifiable by their '.encrypted' file extension.
- Better workflow for editing encrypted notes.
⚠️ It is recommended that you change all previously inline encrypted text into the new encrypted note format. The old functionality will be removed at a later date.
