Additional context Add any other context about the problem here.
It's currently not possible to copy the wallpaper. Konsave works by backing up config files. To copy the wallpaper, it would need to read the config file and extract the location of the wallpaper. I can, however, make it copy all the wallpapers stored in ~/.local/share/wallpaper
directory.
Also, it does not make sense to include the autostart file because different people have different preferences about what program should start automatically and what shouldn't. If you want to add autostart to Konsave, you can do it easily for your configs. Follow these steps if you want to add Autostart and wallpapers to your config files:
- Open
~/.config/konsave/conf.yaml
- add
- autostart
below line 40. - add
- wallpapers
below line 85 And then you're done. Adding custom files and folders to konsave is also mentioned in the README so make sure you read it.

I do not manage the AUR version of Konsave. It is managed by a contributer so I can't do anything about it.

Well, if they go as far as to use my config. they can just remove it lol...

I did, it's just that I thought this would be better as a default.
Anyway, I got your point, so do I close this?

Nah don't close it. I think I'll add the wallpapers folder. Thanks!
