Synchronization issue with Google Drive #1481

Open amitguptagwl opened 5 years ago

amitguptagwl commented 5 years ago

1) Synchronization is not happening automatically. Probably, on the first time when I create the file. I didn't check. Manually, it works fine. 2) Since there are many files I was supposed to sync, I signed in using my google cred to Stackedit. Today, I noticed that I can find no file in my google drive that I created using Stackedit (md files). But I can see all the files on Stackedit.io. It says that " Main workspace synced with your Google Drive app data folder. ". Does it mean that all the files are still in my google drive, but I can't search them because they are inside some hidden app folder?

If yes, then how can I disable it? I wanted the files to be in their respective folders only. So they are easy to find, categorize, share with my friends, download etc. Now I need to open Stackedit first where I see a long list of files.

The data is synchronized in a hidden folder, you can not view the file but can see the change of storage in Google Drive > Settings > Manage apps

I found the only way is to connect your stackedit with Google Drive workspace: Menu > Workspaces > Add a Google Drive workspaces You should enter the Folder Id or click Choose Folder.

Edit: However, it doesn't sync all of folders inside your Google Drive folder, but only your markdown files. I don't know why :cry:

You should enter the Folder Id or click Choose Folder.

I found that if there are already some markdown files in a folder, after setting the folder as a stackedit workspace, existing markdown files will not shown in this workspace. Is this an expected behavior?
