SiYuan Web Clipper Assistance

This post was last updated for 360 days ago, and the information may already be changed

I am in need of asistance witht the web clipper extension, specifically, the save path.

When I enter the the keyword to find the savepath then select the found path, it creates new directories and a file instead going to the existing directories that it found in its search.

Is there something I am doing wrong or is it just a bug of the extension? It works correctly for the first directory but for subdirectories, new duplicate directories are created. Also, are clippings and copy pasted text getting spaced twice for a single space for anyone else?

Hello,

I tested it in a new workspace and a different directory in the same workspace and it works. But for a specific directory I am working with in the same workspace, it gets duplicated. Images are below:
The blue folders were the preexisting directories.

Please rebuild the index in SiYuan and try again.

Unfortunately rebuilding the index did not fix the issue.

This problem is a bit difficult to troubleshoot. Can you make a minimal dataset workspace that can reproduce the problem and send it to us for debugging? [email protected]
