Moving Notes file into Dropbox folder

Post by camputer »

I use the Enigma theme, with some customization by me, but not a lot. I use the Notes feature on the sidebar, which pulls notes from a text file located in the theme folder.

I would like to move that Notes file into my Dropbox folder on my computer (D:\Dropbox\Notes.txt) but am having some trouble doing that. I figured I would just edit Notes.ini and change the default line into Url=file:insertpathhere but I must be doing it the wrong way.

Can anyone advise me on how I can use my current theme and Notes, but pull the Notes.txt file from a different location. Maybe I'm just not using the correct format for the new path? Any help would be appreciated. :)

Url="file://D:\Dropbox\Notes.txt"

Use that.

Its not
Url=file:insertpathhere

Its
Url=file://insertpathhere

Also, wrapping the entire thing in qoutes is always a good idea when using any path, even if it doesn't have spaces, so the following is even better:
Url="file://insertpathhere"
I have three rules when I'm trying to help you.
  • Don't get mad when you don't understand something
  • Be VERY specific with what you ask for.
    The more specific you are, the higher the quality of support you receive.
  • Do not just copy and paste what I put in examples and come back saying it doesn't work.
    It does work, but I purposely left blanks that you need to fill for your specific needs.
