Embed sub index in preview does not change anything #40

Hello, First thanks you very much for your helpful plugin !

I've got a hierarchy of folders like daily/2021/10, daily/2021/09.

I then selected Embed sub-index in preview in the Zoottlekeeper options, but it does not change the preview. I only get the flat list of files and folders in the current folder.

Ask if I you need some debug information I can provide.

Hi @matclab , it shoul include the internal folder's index content into the parent index file. It is visible only in preview mode only. in Edit mode there should be an extra exclamation mark at the beginning of the child-index file.

Thanks @akosbalasko, Manually adding the exclamation mark did the trick but I guess it should have been added automatically. Don't bother too much, I'll try to investigate on this subject on my side.

akosbalasko commented 3 years ago

huh, @matclab it's strange, because it works for me properly automatically.

Hi @akosbalasko and @matclab I'm noticing the same issue for me too. Sub-index preview not showing even after turning on Embed Sub-index in preview setting. I noticed this happened after I started using AidenLx's Folder Note plug in (I had to use this one instead of Folder Note because it has more functionality on IOS).

What happens if you click on Generate Index Now in This plugin’s settings?

Do the updated indexes have the exclamation mark?

prinkles95 commented 3 years ago

Hi @claremacrae - no change after clicking Generate Index Now either.

In editor mode the updated indexes do not have the exclamation mark before [[. I tried putting them in manually and it worked but when I Generate Index Now it reverts back to having no preview available.

I've also tried changing list styles with no effect either.

I confirm that I have the same problem as @matclab

Basically, if you do not add any index prefix and set the folder note as an index file, Zoottelkeeper generates the list but it does not display the sub-contents on the preview.

For users that are heavily dependent on folder & folder note structure, I think this fix would be very useful. Let me know if you need extra information regarding this issue.
