Describe the bug
After installing floccus and starting sync, I get messages like
This is just the end of the error messages, but floccus adds more of them permanently,it must be thousands.
On the other hand, I do not see my latest bookmarks in nextcloud bookmarks.

latest bookmarks appear in nextcloud, np error messages in floccus within firefox

Additional context
I had floccus installed some months ago and deactivated it due to problems; I then had no time to document the errors.
No I gave floccus a new try and would appreciate if I could use it flawlessly - I like the concept.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your feedback.
The error messages are likely related to tab syncing. I will take a look.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
I can't reproduce this offhand, but I still have firefox v84.0.1. It seems like firefox changed the type of their windowIDs. Could you try clearing the cache in your account settings -> dangerous actions -> sync from scratch?
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
I did as requested and started sync. Now floccus has opened several new instances of firefox with dozens of tabs each showing web pages, which I have visited long ago. Now I have to sort out, which ones I can close. This despite the fact, that I do NOT which to sync tabs. "Sync Tabs" radio button is not selected, see screenshot.

@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Mmmh, did you create the sync profile from scratch when you started using floccus again? Can you try selecting a folder to sync? Currently there's no folder selected.
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Addendum: Meanwhile I've closed the tabs, which floccus opened. The error log has filled again.

Is there a way to do a clean start by removing config files of floccus? Additional hint: long time ago, I've use the firefox function to save all tabs.
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Our messages crossed.
I've now selected /Lesezeichen-Menü/ (see screenshot). Remark: It was almost not possible to get hold of the configuration button, because floccus created error messages that fast, that the button scrolled out of sight several times, before I could push it.
But I understood from the doc, that I can sync the root folder by not selecting a folder?
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
You can select the root folder by selecting the topmost folder, titled "untitled folder".
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Results: Selecting "/Lesezeichen-Menü/" and syncing went well.
Next test:



I selected "Unbenannter Ordner"
Floccus shows this:
I saved it and re-started sync.
Result:
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Mh, can you check the debug log?
Small background: The v4.4.x series was rolled out on firefox in octobre and quickly displayed some major issues, which is probably what you were facing last time. Amidst trying to mitigate those I had to take a break from FOSS work and am now in the middle of getting the v4.4.x series back on track, with one bugfix release already out and some bugs still outstanding, so your input is very valuable to getting floccus back on track ❤️
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Here we go:
I've edited the stuff: First and last lines. If you want me to search for specific anomalies in the file, pls. let me know. I wouldn't like to send the file as a whole, because it would show too much of my surfing history.
Have fun!
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
I've done an additional test:
directory was "/Lesezeichen-Symbolleiste/"
Added bookmarks in this firefox bookmarks directory were not visible in nextcloud bookmarks.
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
sorry, unintentionally, I closed this topic. It is not solved.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 9, 2021):
Mh the logs that floccus keeps itself are not helping in this case. I'm also unable to replicate this with the latest firefox for now. Could you try finding out the stack trace as follows?

Here we go:
Again, floccus reports "undefined has no properties".
@paulcalabro commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2021):
I'm trying to sync tabs and I've come across the same error message:
"Expected integer instead of "0") for tabs.create."
A bunch of new windows Firefox windows up as well.
Sorry if I missed it above, but is there a fix/workaround for this?
@paulcalabro commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2021):
I just noticed in the Bookmark apps, two folders were created:
The first one was empty, however, the second one had all the expected bookmarked tabs.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2021):
Ideally, this should be a one-time thing that you can mitigate by syncing from scratch. But if it comes back, there's a bug in there somewhere. Tab syncing in general is still pretty new and not that stable yet. I'll have a look at the server folder for tab syncing.
@erwin-frohsinn commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2021):
But then why do I have this issue: In my case, tab syncing was deselected.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 10, 2021):
Because this line was missing:
github.com/marcelklehr/floccus@ae1e6ba74eIt was another bug.@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 14, 2021):
@erwin-frohsinn This commit should fix your second issue:
github.com/marcelklehr/floccus@217d7abcaaI'll do a release soon-ish -- there's still some bugs left unfortunately...
@wieluk commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2021):
I had a problem related to this. When you choose tabs in the profile once it won't change back anymore. For me it always used tabs after I pressed tabs once unintentionally. I had to delete the profile and create a new one.
@marcelklehr commented on GitHub (Jan 19, 2021):
@wieluk Thanks for your feedback! Confirmed and fixed.
