[solved] .gtk-bookmarks not getting read?

Post by MikZ »

Hello. I've upgraded to Mint 17 with Cinnamon, from Mint 14.

One thing that doesn't seem to have made is my favourites list in file dialogues. The directories (URIs, really) listed in my ~/.gtk-bookmarks file aren't appearing; all I see is my home directory, desktop, drives, Music, etc. Did this get moved to that registry thing somewhere along the line? Is there an easy way to import it?

Thanks,
MikZ.

Hi MikZ,

I think the location (and the name) of the bookmarks file has changed since LM14 Cinnamon.

In LM17 Cinnamon, nemo's bookmarks are now in a file just named bookmarks (instead of .gtk-bookmarks)
in /home/username/.config/gtk-3.0

Try copying them into that new location (change the file name to bookmarks), see if they appear.

Yep: I put them in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks and they appeared straight away. Thanks.
