Renaming a document made the old one disappear, or two tabs now share the same name
What you are seeing
Renaming a document made the old one disappear, or two tabs now share the same name.
#Why it happens
The title is the filename. Renaming uploads a differently-named file, and nothing checks whether a name is already in use.
#What to do
Delete the leftover file if you renamed one, and keep titles distinct. The app will not stop you creating duplicates.
#Settings involved
Setting | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Title | Editor modal | Up to 50 characters. Becomes the attachment's filename, with .md added. |
#Limits that apply here
Limit | Value | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Document title length | 50 characters | Enforced by the Title input in the editor. The title becomes the attachment filename. |
#A few things that catch people out
Saving with an empty title on a new document names it 'Markdown' plus a number.
Two tabs with the same name are two separate attachments; deleting one leaves the other.
