[Feature Request] Bookmarks im/export about benotes HOT 8 CLOSED

Personally, I think the Import ( and Export maybe) is the very important feature for the common sense of users. Most of the users that know Benotes should already use some form of Bookmarks app. So we could allow the duplicated issue for the short terms, and bring it on asap with the simple conversion from folders to tags.

Thank you !

There is currently no import function (unless doing it yourself via the rest api counts).
To be honest it is a little bit of a delicate topic because everyone has a different understanding how the data is originally structured/which format is being used.
What format would you have in mind to import from ?

bookmarks.html from any chromium and firefox?

Sorry, should have read the title. Didn't realize we are only taking about bookmarks exclusively.
As far as I understand that file contains everything, meaning chances are something could collide, especially since Benotes, as of right know, does not support nested "folders".

perhaps is a useful way to write folders into tags? at least as an option.

and whats about douplicates? if i had to import bookmarks from private and work environment.

Perhaps.

True, this makes it even more complicated ;)

An alternative for nested folders would be to flatten the structure.

But then I thought about it again and decided to simply just implement nested folders/collections, which would be a win-win situation.

It is now possible in the newest version 2.8.0 which is still in beta, just to be safe. Every browser might behave a little differently.
It supports both folders and tags (separately).
