I've noticed that when I do a World Export (for backups) the contents of my Notebooks do not make the export, all there is is a json file that is a shell without any notes. I've tried full exporting (the whole World enchilada), I've tried exporting only the Notebook section, nothing works. I get a 1 KB json file that apparently points to the content, but it's not there, not a single note. As WA is my novel series "bible", it would be devastating to lose any of this work.
In the Export World screen, under the world I want to export (I only have one, so this isn't hard)
- I make sure I have the items I want exported selected (generally all of them)
-Reset (so I can get a new export)
- Start
-When it's done download
- Then I extract the files
- I drill down to the notebook file
- I get the following:
"id": "141ebe61-c744-4a32-b155-733a0cca6a71", "title": "Den-Aronel notes", "slug": null, "state": null, "isWip": null, "isDraft": null, "entityClass": "Notebook", "icon": "fa-solid fa-notebook", "url": "https://www.worldanvil.com/notebook/notebook/141ebe61-c744-4a32-b155-733a0cca6a71/load", "subscribergroups": , "folderId": null, "tags": null, "updateDate": null, "creationDate": { "date": "2023-01-24 05:39:09.000000", "timezone_type": 3, "timezone": "Europe/London" }, "color": null, "weight": 1, "isSelected": 1, "editor": "code", "activeNoteId": "7a1c9d76-3d9f-49f4-8c0e-47882be3ac81", "isEditable": true, "success": true }
That's it. No content, just the shell and the link to the content.
Notebooks
Hey there! Currently the public api (that the world export uses) does not support notebooks. If this is important to you, feel free to add it as a feature request here: https://www.worldanvil.com/community/voting/
Thank you for the feedback!
