For easy extensibility, a lot of features in Trilium make use of actual notes to store information as opposed to having them stored in a separate location in the database. This allows some functions such as <a class="reference-link" href="Attributes.md">Attributes</a>, <a class="reference-link" href="Attributes/Relations.md">Relations</a> or even <a class="reference-link" href="../Basic%20Concepts%20and%20Features/Navigation/Search.md">Search</a> and <a class="reference-link" href="../Note%20Types/Text/Links.md">Links</a> to be able to operate on them.
|
||
|
||
As the name suggests, these notes are hidden to the user by default to prevent cluttering the note tree and to prevent them from being accidentally deleted.
|
||
|
||
The hidden notes are stored in the user's <a class="reference-link" href="Database.md">Database</a> just like normal notes, but they have a unique <a class="reference-link" href="Note%20ID.md">Note ID</a> which allows them to be distinguished from the normal ones.
|
||
|
||
## Accessing the hidden note tree
|
||
|
||
From the <a class="reference-link" href="../Basic%20Concepts%20and%20Features/UI%20Elements/Global%20menu.md">Global menu</a>, select _Advanced_ → _Show Hidden Subtree_.
|
||
|
||
## Contents of the hidden note tree
|
||
|
||
Here is a brief summary of all the notes within the hidden tree:
