I'd like to have my feeds, history, and configuration stored and encrypted in the cloud (ie. google drive, dropbox, onedrive, etc).

This would serve:

(1) Synced between devices

(2) Backup

Hi,

Hi,

just store the files

feed.db (holds data and filters)

QuiteRss.ini (holds the settings)

in your cloud.

Kind regards,

I take it that you could use symbolic links to point to the files on cloud storage?

Hi all,

Hi all,

Just to confirm that using symbolic links with dropbox does work, I now have three windows machines all syncing their data.

You have to create two links (I created hard links as they are file references) from the following

DB File : C:\users\<username>\appdata\local\quiterss\quiterss\feeds.db ==>  c:\users\<username>\dropbox\quiterss\feeds.db

Settings File : C:\users\<username>\appdata\Roaming\quiterss\quiterss.ini ==>  c:\users\<username>\dropbox\quiterss\quiterss.ini

Just remember to move the files to the new location first (after closing QuiteRSS First)

I also used the free tool Windows Symbolic link maker to make my life easier - https://sourceforge.net/projects/windowssymbolic/?source=directory 

 

Hope that helps.

I'm always looking for information for syncing on Mac.

We do not find the same file names (quiterss.ini & feeds.db).

The creator of the Mac version should be able to help us?

Thank you ...
