Only default tab syncs to Simplenote?

[danielson]

From what i can see, is it possible that only the default tab syncs to Simplenote?

Hi Daniel,

you can select which section to sync, and it doesn't have to be the inbox (default) section.
You can do it in the File/Synchronization window.

Simplenote doesn't have support for sections, so syncing all sections is not an option at the moment.
We thought about how to implement it, but since it will require some tricky and error-prone
section-special tag-section conversions, we decided to put it on ice.

Other option would be allowing syncing different sections with different Simplenote accounts - this
is easier to do and thus more probable.

Okay, i can understand that it is basically complicated to get full sync.

In the meantime, the features page is somewhat misleading and should be modified to reflect this.
Would "partial Simplenote sync" or "basic Simplenote syncing" be better?

[CintaNotes Developer]

On one hand, this would be less misleading - if you use sections, you won't get full sync with Simplenote (btw with Dropbox you will).
One the other hand, from a standpoint of a Simplenote user, this is full sync. Also this would be basically penalizing CintaNotes for providing additional features over what Simplenote offers.

Also, what would you personally prefer:
1) Syncing all sections to one Simplenote account
2) Syncing each section to own Simplenote account ?

[danielson]

I understand.

Of course, full sync of all sections with one SN account would be preferable.
One of the reasons is because i also happen to use CloudMagic to search documents on Dropbox, GMail etc.
Users who have a premium account with SN have their notes backed-up to Dropbox if they wish to do so.
Wouldn't want to have a premium account with SN for each new section in CN now.

Hence, CloudMagic can basically search all documentation on the cloud (including CN).

Alex,

Don't make it a priority just for me!
I was used to no tabs before (have removed them since i discovered non sync issue) so it'll probably suit most peoples needs.

Actually, my big preference would have been Ubernote which IMO, is much faster than SimpleNote.
It's just that development is so stagnant back there that i shifted my attention to SimpleNote.

I've added the request to the roadmap: http://roadmap.cintanotes.com/topic/147254-/ , please vote!

Also we are in the process of migrating SimpleNote sync to the new Simperium API, which should be much faster and more stable.

[danielson]

Thanks Alex! Wasn't too sure how to vote. Didn't recall the up or down arrows positions.

Goes to show you how i like to go voting.

If you sync a section with SN and then sync with a second section, to same SN account, you get lots of duplication. No suprise really, and I didn't mess up my real data.
But if the guidance is one account per section then it shoud not be so easy to switch the section name that syncs.

Nod, but there is a warning message when you switch the section. Or do you mean that this warning is not enough?

Sorry, I'd used an old CN version. I'll try again when I can set it up. Nod
