Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/206

Software versions

  • Browser: Google Chrome Version 70.0.3538.110 (Official Build) (64-bit)
  • Nextcloud: Nextcloud 14.0.3
  • Nextcloud Bookmarks app: 0.14.2
  • Floccus: 3.1.14
  • Floccus sync method: nextcloud-folders

Steps to reproduce

I use automatic sync from both my home computer and work laptop. Over time sub folders in folders get duplicated and those folders contain multiple duplicates of the same bookmark. These bookmarks are not shown in the nextcloud app.

Expected outcome

Sync from laptop to nextcloud
and sync from computer to nextcloud and v.v. would cause the same bookmarks across all computers.

Actual outcome

Some of the bookmarks are duplicated, not all

I think the latest releases have possibly fixed this. Please keep an eye out for future duplications of folders.

This version indeed removes the duplicate bookmarks. In the previous version the bookmark list just kept growing and growing. That caused a number of duplicate folders. Those duplicate folders did not disappear with this version.

But fortunately this version does not cause new duplicate folders. I removed the duplicate folders manually and it all appears to work now. Remove duplicate folders did cause another error:
Can't find parent bookmark for id.
Can't find parent bookmark for id.
Can't find parent bookmark ...
.....(repeated)

That was solved by checking "reset cache".

So yes: problem solved!
