I went ahead and gave it a shot by renaming some notes in Note Station and it worked. The issue is the long filenames. I had to rename about 20 notes or so and the script went through fine.
However, that wasn't the end of the story. Upon importing using "MD+Frontmatter (Folder)" I ran into tons of other issues.
- First off, the Joplin importer seems to have issues with tags that contain umlauts, e.g. "Ökonomie". It gives me an error message reading "The MD file could not be imported. The tag 'Ökonomie' already exists." (which it doesn't). If I edit the MD file to read "Oekonomie", the file imports fine.
- Then, the import process eventually broke off with the error message "Malformed URI" – which is unfortunate as it does not give me a pointer to where the source of the issue lies. It is clear that most of the import is missing.
- And then, finally, in the parts successfully imported, there are no images. As far as I can say, all notes that should contain images either show only
""
if I look at them in markdown view and show as empty in the rich-text editor view. Or they do contain some sort of link to a file, but the file does not seem to be there and rich-text view shows only a "broken image icon" with the name of the image file:
Any idea if these issues are related to your script or Joplin-specific?
