Boostnote: v0.11.5 image not shown

[eugenia1815]

Current behavior

Expected behavior

Environment

• Version : v0.11.5
• OS Version and name : Sierra 10.12.6

[OnlineVagrant]

For me, drag and drop images don't display unless in edit mode with the split screen off.
Secondly if i have already added an image and it is displaying correctly and i add a second image in split screen mode all images stop displaying.

Yes, I have encounted the issue too. Now, images can only be displayed by using absolute path which is quite annoying.

Able to reproduce the same. Hopefully a fix will be in place soon.

I have this issue too, I don't want to upgrade. How to stop upgrade, because v0.11.4 is better, it does not have image issue

[hminle]

This is a huge bug, can anyone help?

hi together, i fear it is my fault. I explained the problem here: https://github.com/BoostIO/Boostnote/issues/1941#issuecomment-390644169
I am very sorry for the problems i caused.. i've already submitted a PR that hopefully fixes the problem, but it can't be released before the next version (in 2-3 weeks,,,).

@OnlineVagrant what is the problem with drag&drop? If there is an error in the development console, could you please post it?

as a current workaround: if you rename the folder "images" at your boostnote storage location to "attachments" it might work again (see the comment linked above for the explanation)

@ehhc When in edit mode drag and drop works well but in the split view mode it does not display when dragging and dropping. I just realised if you move the cursor by adding another photo or pressing enter the photo gets displayed.

There is an error but I think it is unrelated.

[ehhc]

@OnlineVagrant thank you for your answer. Yes it is unrelated but it will be (hopefully) fixed with the next release as well :)
Sorry for the problems..

Is there a way to downgrade?

Working with 11.5, when I paste the image I copied, it appears the image with absolute path and the image SHOULD be in the attachment folder. However, it did not create the new image in the 'attachments' folder. All my images gone when I quit Boostnote and open again even I insert the image with the absolute path.

My folder is empty, without any images

[ehhc]

could you guys try and test if the issue is solved with the new version?
I hope my fixed solved the issue but there are some comments indicating that it still persist.. could you test it on your machines and give me feedback? If it's still not working: do you get any output on the developer console?
Thanks a lot

In the new version (0.11.6) images are broken. The error in the developer console shows that it's looking for images in a folder called attachments, but they are in a folder called images.

Did the root path for images change in the update but no process was added to move existing images from the images folder, perhaps?

[ehhc]

@jonblack actually the root path changed with version 0.11.5.. But with version 0.11.6 a mathod to copy them from the old location to the new one exists..(I'm sorry that i forgot about that in the 0.11.5 version :( ) Obviously it dosen't work though.. :/
I just can say we're looking to it... sorry for the problems

[jonblack]

I think there are multiple problems. If I manually move the images to the attachments folder it still doesn't load them. The path it's trying to load has the following prefix: file:///file:///, which obviously doesn't work.

Re-adding them by dragging and dropping does work, and now I can see that there should also be a folder for the image, and that folder is the uuid of the note the attachment is in. So I guess the only thing to do is re-add for now.

Hi,
i think/hope both is fixed with https://github.com/BoostIO/Boostnote/pull/2107
First problem: I have not considered that the old path started with "/:storage" instead of ":storage". -> the double file:// problem..
Second problem: I think the migration doesn’t work because the old way (i'm not completely sure about that) was "/:storage/path/..." with "/". In the first migration try i assumed that it is platform dependent instead of "/" (-> in windows "/:storage\path.." ) But that seems to be a wrong assumption.. i (hope that i) fixed that with the recent PR as well...

Sorry for all the problems again..

I still have this problem on Windows 10 with 0.11.13.

As you can see the last backslash \ is urlencoded to %5C, which might be the cause why the image cannot be loaded.
