Hello,

I use floccus 2.0.6, nextcloud 13.0, bookmarks 0.11.0 and chrome 65.

Syncing works fine even with subfolders. Subfolders are converted to tags by floccus. All folder names are prefixed by string "floccus:>" when converted to a tag. Is there a way to switch this off, please?

Thanks and best regards
Martin

Hey @humarf
Thanks for reaching out. Since the user can add arbitrary tags in the bookmarks app on the server, I chose to add a prefix for all floccus-specific tags. I'm not particular about the exact prefix, but it's essential that there is one, I'm afraid. :)
In general, I realize that the solution to sync bookmark paths as tags is not ideal, but it's an upstream issue that needs to be addressed in nextcloud bookmarks. The focus there has been on tags, as the idea is that they can be used more flexibly than folders.

Why not make the string configurable. So it would be possible to use the same account to sync my private bookmarks at home and the bookmarks in the office.

Having it configurable would be a good idea. If it's really needed I could switch to a bit less eye catching prefix.

You can now configure the server path to sync to in floccus v2.2.0 :)
