Fails to sync existing Firefox bookmarks to new nextcloud config
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug Firefox add-on fails to sync existing bookmarks to a new nextcloud instance. I have copied my existing ‘Bookmarks Toolbar’ and ‘Other bookmarks’ folders into my new ‘nextcloud <xyz>’ folder, but Floccus refuses to sync these to the server (and no show up from the web interface). Debug log supplied which seems to indicate a problem with a parent hash?
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behaviour:
- Open floccus, configure new Nextcloud account, Save
- Open Bookmarks manager/Library, click and drag to copy ‘Bookmarks Toolbar’ and ‘Other Bookmarks’ as children of ‘Nextcloud Bookmarks’ folder
- Attempt to ‘Sync’
- Nothing happens.
- Open debug log - see error
Expected behaviour Existing bookmarks folders are replicated to the Nextcloud server, and are visible in the web interface as children of a new parent folder pertaining to this computer/setup.

Oh yeah, been bitten by that problem since I first started syncing devices years ago, so I get ya point.
Just to check, how do I specify the root ‘All Bookmarks’ folder … does that just pop up in the selection box of the config dialogue …Found it all, and it looks all perfect now:mmmh, no. I think you were right the first time. The new UI has validation for these things 😉
If you’d like to give it a go and provide some feedback see #531 😃
