Encryption Function Doesn't Sync #26

Closed andtheWings closed 10 years ago

andtheWings commented 10 years ago

If you have both encryption and cloud storage enabled, it would be nice if your encryption settings synced between instances.

As it is right now, it seems like if I encrypt a note in one browser, there is no way to view that note in another browser. Is this accurate, or am I misunderstanding how to set this up?

Yes you got it right. It's all because synchronizing encryption settings is too dangerous (IMHO). We are planning to add feature to import/export settings. I think it will be more secure than syncing your password hashes to some cloud storage. If you disagree, we are open to discussion.

I think that makes sense. As long as there is a means by which I can access those files in a browser-client agnostic fashion, that's fine with me.

Until Laverna reaches greater stability, I mainly plan on using it to store personally sensitive notes that I don't feel comfortable putting on Evernote. As such, importing/exporting settings would be a high-priority feature request for me. Thanks!
