Operating system/browser name & version: Linux 5.16.0-1-amd64

notion-enhancer and/or notion-repackaged version: (notion-enhancer v0.11.0)

to run notion-enhancer apply you need an official build of Notion to be pre-installed, which you can't have on Linux.

try actually following the installation instructions this time (the installation should include both Notion and the notion-enhancer builtin): https://notion-enhancer.github.io/getting-started/installation

I can't install both vanilla and enhanced how could I install both of them?

[dragonwocky]

@slyg3nius you shouldn't. If you need one to be vanilla and the other to be enhanced, use one as an app and the other in your browser.

[slaee]

so there is no way I can use the enhancer apply? because after installing notion-app-enhancer in my machine I could not see for enhancer.

[slaee]

Wait.. now it works. What I did is I run the notion-repackaged.sh then afterwards I reinstall the notion-app-enhancer.

You should include this to the installation instruction because it is quite confusing for linux users.

[dragonwocky]

Wait.. now it works. What I did is I run the notion-repackaged.sh then afterwards I reinstall the notion-app-enhancer.

You don't need to do that...

This is all you should be doing.

echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://apt.fury.io/notion-repackaged/ /" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/notion-repackaged.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install notion-app-enhanced

so there is no way I can use the enhancer apply?

The installation instructions very specifically say you can't. Please read them carefully. They are correct, as long as you don't make things up to add to them.

[slaee]

No that doesn't work at first I tried that then I install the notion-app-enhanced but there is no enhancer in the Application. I do reinstalling 10 times but nothing to see the enhancer menu that's why I tried runing the executable command of notion-repackaged.

[dragonwocky]

@slyg3nius did you delete the folder you were told to by the very top of the instructions? If you don't delete it then the menu doesn't show up in the sidebar.

Running the script may have deleted it for you, but you really shouldn't be running that script.

[slaee]

I did delete the folder while reinstalling so many times.

[dragonwocky]

Was the folder called notion-enhancer, or .notion-enhancer? The . is important. If you delete the one without the dot then you're deleting the actual notion-enhancer and it's no surprise if things aren't working.

If you did delete the one with the dot, then that's probably why the app started working.

The script you ran builds the sources for the app - it doesn't create or affect any actual app installations on your system.

[slaee]

.notion-enchancer with dot(.)

[slaee]

will also create new issue the themes in enhancer doesn't work at all.

[dragonwocky]

@slyg3nius dark themes will only work if you put Notion into dark mode first (within your Notion settings), this isn't a bug.

[slaee]

so why it doesn't work for many times while deleting also .notion-enhanced folder?

[dragonwocky]

I'm very confused as to what you're doing. Once you've installed notion-enhancer and gotten into the menu you don't need to keep deleting it - it's used to store the notion-enhancer's settings, delete it will reset the settings. You only need to delete it once at the start to get rid of the old format from notion-enhancer v0.10.
