Tags not working for notes in sub-folders between windows and Ubuntu Linux #358

Closed Amourspirit closed 7 years ago

Amourspirit commented 7 years ago

I just installed QOwnNotes on Windows 8, Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.

I created a Projects folder and then I created a sub folder named Test in the Projects Folder.

While using Ubuntu I created notes in the Test folder and added a few tags. All seems to work well until I view the note using QOwnNotes on Windows 8 or 10. The tags are missing.

When I add the tags in Windows they are missing in Ubuntu. The tags are displayed in the Tags Panel but are not displayed on the note.

In short when tags are placed on a note in a sub-folder in Ubuntu they can only be seen in Ubuntu. When tags are placed on a note in a sub-folder in Windows they can only be seen in windows.

I was able to track the problem down using a sqlite browser.

The Issue seems to be in the path separator used on Ubuntu ( / ) and Windows ( \ ). Checking the noteTagLink table I can see that tag info is stored in note_subfolder_path. In Windows the field might contain Projects\Test but in Ubuntu in might be Projects/Test

By editing notes.sqlite database for the notes I was able to get tags to display in Ubuntu when I changed \ ( backslash ) to / ( forward slash ) . Projects\Test became Projects/Test in the note_subfolder_path field and vise versa for Windows.

Thank you for reporting. I thought I had taken care of that, I will take a look at it.

pbek commented 7 years ago

Could you please post the debug dump from your debug settings, I need to take a look at your paths.

pbek commented 7 years ago

And afterwards could you please go to the note folder settings and set your notes path again. Does the tagging work now in Windows and Linux? Could you then please post an other debug dump?

pbek commented 7 years ago

For my last two comments I was both times referring to your Windows installation of QOwnNotes.

pbek commented 7 years ago

There now is a new release, could you please test it and report if the new features work for you? (you can ignore my other comments if it works now)

Amourspirit commented 7 years ago

I will be upgrading to the new version shortly

Amourspirit commented 7 years ago

I have installed the new version. Seems to be working but I am unable to test much right now.

For some reason I am have sync issues with my NextCloud and it results in notes not syncing their full content. ( only the first sync when the note is created is getting synced to other clients, notes.sqlite sometimes does not get synced when updated ).

I have confirmed this is not an issue with QOwnNotes and I am currently working on getting it straightened out.

I will post an update if I can get around these and other current issues.

Amourspirit commented 7 years ago

Here is a link to the issues I mentioned in my previous post for anyone interested.

Thank you for testing and reporting. I hope that gets sorted out. Please let me know if there are any news.
