Export multiple notes

Features
1

Hi there, I’m using Joplin for a week now, the app is great but I’d with to support exporting of multiple (or all) notes.
I think that this is really a basic feature that should be added.
Thanks.

Hi,
I managed to export several notes (discontinuous selection) at once: in JEX, Mardown and html formats.
However, exporting to pdf causes an error:
this.pdfFileName_ is not a function.

Which version? I believe @CalebJohn fixed this.

Hello tessus, I already tried this format. I was refering to the other types of exports that can be loaded by different programs (other and Joplin).
Thank you.

Which format? As you can see I left the format open ...

So can you please be a bit more specific.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, looks I just haven’t learned the gui proper.
The thing I was doing was to click File > Export > PDF (for example). This will extract only one note (the selected one).
I learned how to export all notes at once, I will edit my post.

Sorry again and thank you for the great app!

Edit: Looks like I can’t edit my post, just wanted to say that Joplin can export multiple notes at once.

I’m uncertain of what I’m exporting every time I’m doing this, so I really think it would help if the options were “Export selected” and “Export all notes”.

Since when are context aware actions hard to understand?

For me it seems logical that if you right-click on a notebook and select export that the notebook and all its content is exported.
It also seems logical to me that if you select a note and select export that this note is exported.

You can also select several notes and export them.
