Notes from the same web page

[ZiluTian]

Hello,

Thank you for this tool! I am writing to see if it is possible to merge notes from the same web page to the same note in QOwnnotes, rather than one note per entry. Is there any suggestion is how to do this efficiently? Thanks!

Regards,
Zilu

Thank you for your kind words.

Do you mean Create note from selection?
No, currently always a new note is created.

Hello, Thanks for your prompt reply! Ok, too bad. I will try to get the merge note script to work then. Regards, Zilu

You will be able to write your own script to handle it the way you like.

20.5.0

• the context menu entries Create note from page (HTML import) and Create note from selection where renamed to Send page to QOwnNotes and Send selection to QOwnNotes, because now a screenshot of the current page will also be sent to QOwnNotes so you are able to use them in scripts
  • you need QOwnNotes 20.5.7 or higher for this feature
  • the default behavior is still that a new note is created with the page or selection text

QOwnNotes 20.5.7

• there now is a new method insertHtmlAsMarkdownIntoCurrentNote for mainWindow
  in the scripting engine that inserts html in the current note as markdown
  (for #1740)
  • this method also downloads remote images and transforms data:image urls
    to local images stored in the media directory
  • for more information please take a look at the
    Mainwindow scripting documentation
• added a new scripting hook websocketRawDataHook that is called when data is
  sent from the QOwnNotes Web Companion browser extension via the web browser's
  context menu (for #1740)
  • you need the QOwnNotes Web Companion 20.5.0 or higher for this to work
  • this works with either the send page and send selection feature of the
    web companion
  • if a hook implementation is found in a script no new note will be created
  • take a look at the
    handleNoteNameHook documentation
    for more information

There now is a new release, could you please test it and report if it works for you?
