# Changelog
All notable changes to Simple Notes Sync will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/).
---
## [1.2.2] - TBD
### Fixed
- **Backward Compatibility for v1.2.0 Users (Critical)**
- App now reads BOTH old (Root) AND new (`/notes/`) folder structures
- Users upgrading from v1.2.0 no longer lose their existing notes
- Server-Restore now finds notes from v1.2.0 stored in Root folder
- Automatic deduplication prevents loading the same note twice
- Graceful error handling if Root folder is not accessible
### Technical
- `WebDavSyncService.downloadRemoteNotes()` - Dual-mode download (Root + /notes/)
- `WebDavSyncService.restoreFromServer()` - Now uses dual-mode download
- Migration happens naturally: new uploads go to `/notes/`, old notes stay readable
---
## [1.2.1] - 2026-01-05
### Fixed
- **Markdown Initial Export Bugfix**
- Existing notes are now exported as Markdown when Desktop Integration is activated
- Previously, only new notes created after activation were exported
- Progress dialog shows export status with current/total counter
- Error handling for network issues during export
- Individual note failures don't abort the entire export
- **Markdown Directory Structure Fix**
- Markdown files now correctly land in `/notes-md/` folder
- Smart URL detection supports both Root-URL and `/notes` URL structures
- Previously, MD files were incorrectly placed in the root directory
- Markdown import now finds files correctly
- **JSON URL Normalization**
- Simplified server configuration: enter only base URL (e.g., `http://server:8080/`)
- App automatically creates `/notes/` for JSON files and `/notes-md/` for Markdown
- Smart detection: both `http://server:8080/` and `http://server:8080/notes/` work correctly
- Backward compatible: existing setups with `/notes` in URL continue to work
- No migration required for existing users
### Changed
- **Markdown Directory Creation**
- `notes-md/` folder is now created on first sync (regardless of Desktop Integration setting)
- Prevents 404 errors when mounting WebDAV folder
- Better user experience: folder is visible before enabling the feature
- **Settings UI Improvements**
- Updated example URL from `/webdav` to `/notes` to match app behavior
- Example now shows: `http://192.168.0.188:8080/notes`
### Technical
- `WebDavSyncService.ensureMarkdownDirectoryExists()` - Creates MD folder early
- `WebDavSyncService.getMarkdownUrl()` - Smart URL detection for both structures
- `WebDavSyncService.exportAllNotesToMarkdown()` - Exports all local notes with progress callback
- `SettingsActivity.onMarkdownExportToggled()` - Triggers initial export with ProgressDialog
---
## [1.2.0] - 2026-01-04
### Added
- **Local Backup System**
- Export all notes as JSON file to any location (Downloads, SD card, cloud folder)

### Technical
- `BackupManager.kt` - Complete backup/restore logic
- `Note.toMarkdown()` / `Note.fromMarkdown()` - Markdown conversion with YAML frontmatter
- `WebDavSyncService` - Extended for dual-format sync (JSON master + Markdown mirror)
- ISO8601 timestamp formatting for desktop compatibility
- Filename sanitization for safe Markdown file names
### Documentation
- Added WebDAV mount instructions (Windows, macOS, Linux)
- Created [SYNC_ARCHITECTURE.md](../project-docs/simple-notes-sync/architecture/SYNC_ARCHITECTURE.md) - Complete sync documentation
- Created [MARKDOWN_DESKTOP_REALITY_CHECK.md](../project-docs/simple-notes-sync/markdown-desktop-plan/MARKDOWN_DESKTOP_REALITY_CHECK.md) - Desktop integration analysis
