[Bug] All notes are suddenly gone ; Feature Request : Backup Function #133

Open DMelisena opened 3 months ago

DMelisena commented 3 months ago

I don't think I delete anything. I'm not sure whether prolonged save is a feature to be expected here and all of the notes are only there as a cache. Is it possible to back all th notes that is created as a .md / .txt file? I didn't even turn off my PC and all the notes are gone.

p.s : Any information regarding how the data are stored up would be much appreciated.

Hi you can try running sticky from the command line. It will tell you where the notes are stored

I'm going with similar questions. I tried creating a symlink from my Nextcloud folder where I put the notes folder from Sticky, however it won't recognize the symlink as a real notes folder. Being able to use symlinks would be pretty neat!

Not sure.

I agree!

please create a new issue requesting that we follow symlinks to the notes folder!
