What happen to original free version Boosnotes?

[phil-isaacs]

Just got a new laptop and I have been using Boosnotes for a while. I have a ton of notes in the old version. I want to download the old version so I can get my notes out it. Is that still possible to download? And if not how do I import my old notes otherwise?

Hello,

can you please specify or provide screenshot of which old version you had?

If you had notes such as *.CSON files then you had: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-Legacy
If you have *.JSON notes you had boost note next: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next-local
If you have been using cloud boost note, you had this: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App

Please let me know what kind of notes you had so we can recover it.
If you want this process to be faster, please join our slack and contact us there (https://join.slack.com/t/boostnote-group/shared_invite/zt-cun7pas3-WwkaezxHBB1lCbUHrwQLXw).

I think all options are in Preferences about storages, there is probably no import but boostnote just reads what is on disk, so if you create new storage at some location, simply copy your data to the new boostnote location and then open boostnote to read the data.

Let me know if you encounter any issues and please provide screenshot and details.

Sorry but I feel like I can't get it do anything. There's no option to create storage just folders and labels

Hello,

You installed latest boost note version, please refer to my first post and install legacy boost note.

@phil-isaacs, I think this is what you were looking for https://github.com/BoostIO/boost-releases/releases/. I was looking for that "green" version too.

[phil-isaacs]

Yeah I figured it out eventually. Thanks so much.
