Theme won’t sync on Dropbox because of emoji in folder name #14

Closed raisabelatrix closed 1 year ago

I have my entire vault synced to Dropbox, and just as I installed this theme, I got this error:

It’s definitely because of the emoji in the folder name… I could just rename the folder myself, but I fear that doing so might make me unable to receive any updates for the theme

Thanks for letting me know about this. I never thought about it when I named it, but I am aware that Dropbox has issues with emojis in titles. I am going to request a name change to remove the emoji.

A name change would actually reset all updates and downloads and has some other implications, so I think I'm going to keep the theme name as is.

Now, one thing you could do is move the theme.css file out of the folder and rename it to Chime.css, or something like that. Then you'll have the file, and it will sync.

Changing the folder name might also work, but for me it only works if I also edit the manifest.json inside the folder.

And maybe on your main device, you can also have the real 🔔 Chime folder installed and use that to check for updates. Every time there is an update, you can copy the theme.css and replace the renamed dropbox one.

I know it's not very convenient, but it is a solution.
