I lost half of the favorite entries
Hello,
I just noticed that more than half of the favorite list has vanished. I have checked ~/.cache/[email protected]/registry.txt and just as I expected, they aren't there.
Is there any way to recover them? If not, how can I send logs as to help fix this in future versions?
I would kindly suggest a daily backup feature of the favorites or/and the rest so we can recover them in case of loss.
Thank you
I have the same problem. I lost all my favourite entries 😩😩😩 Please make a local daily backup.
I don't think there is anyway to recover them unfortunately :slightly_frowning_face:
One culprit could be the "Max cache file size" in the extension settings. Try setting it to a higher value. Note that a large cache file might cause the extension to run very slowly.
Regarding a daily backup — I will gladly review & merge a PR that implements this feature. Unfortunately I have no time to work on this myself.
OP here. I lost half of them again. Saving important clipboard notes on a notepad for now.
@EmanuelAlexandru I looked around. This extension appears to be seldom updated due to the author's limited time. However, there is a rewrite of this extension by another person at https://github.com/SUPERCILEX/gnome-clipboard-history. It supposedly fixes this problem, among others. I am trying that now.
@EmanuelAlexandru how many clipboard items do you have in your clipboard? Also, did you try increasing the "max cache file size" option in the settings?
