Hi Jake and Krisztian,

I synced my notebooks via Resilio since 2010 or so (btsync was the name in 
those days). No problems ever. Zim very nicely recognizes changed files and 
reloads them. So you can just walk to a next node and edit the workbook there 
then walk back and continue.

Sincerely, Maik.

Hi Jake!

You can syncing that folder if you use shared notebooks (default Zim notebooks 
are shared), there are not causing any problems, but if you use unshared 
notebooks, you should blacklisted the index.db file in Nextcloud Client.

I don't do that. I'm using Nextcloud for synchronizing my Zim notebooks, but I 
don't use shared notebooks (in the notebook.zim file shared option sets to 
False), so my .zim folders contain not only state.conf file but the index.db 
cache file, which can cause some strange behaviour when I was synced. Constant 
wiriting of cache file caused problems with syncing and slowing down the Zim 
itself.

According to https://zim-wiki.org/manual/FAQ.html, it is not necessary to 
include the hidden .zim folder when backing up notebooks or syncing notebooks 
across machines. But is it safe to include this folder anyway, or will it break 
things? In my case I am syncing a notebook between multiple computers using 
Nextcloud.

Thanks,

Jake
