Things That Depend On My Dropbox File Path

So much of my online workflows depend on Dropbox! A recent software update changed the location of my Dropbox directory, which promptly caused a lot of my extensions to break. Documenting exactly which ones broke in case something like this happens again in the future.

  • Alfred preferences sync
  • The Archive (Zettel) directory
  • Alfred:
    • In the zettelkasten workflow:
      • Cmd + Shift + O — create new Zettel ()
      • ztags — Populate the [[TAGS COMPENDIUM]] file
      • ,# — Tags search bash script
      • work — Make a work journal page (although I’ll stop using this soon I think)
      • personal — Make a personal journal page (likewise, will probably stop using this soon)
      • sd — State dump
      • psd — Personal state dump
    • In the Zettel Search workflow:
      • zf , zz, zx — ugh. This isn’t working because of some stupid file indexing thing. I don’t really know how to fix this, and I really with I didn’t sign up for this Dropbox thing. I’m so mad.

#update 07-13-22 6:53 PM: I disabled the beta experience because of the thing it broke above ^, and changed everything back to the way it was.
