Notes broken with latest update?
Hi folks,
Just completed the latest update and all my notes seem to be broken. lots of errors when I open and unreadable. Not much in the notes, just map links and text. Is this a me problem that I have to track down or something bigger?
Thanks.

I have a few notes, but none of them are listing in the Notes window. The list is blank.
The note I have hot keyed opens and works fine.
I just can't open any other notes.
I'm using Savage Worlds (SWADE).

For my missing notes, there's no errors or warnings in the console log. Also, no extensions.
I can zip my campaign if that helps.

Thanks - good advice as always. Tracked it down to an extension titled Automatic Record Links. No extension, no problem.
Cheers,

I figured out the cause of the empty notes list.
The <note> node has been renamed to <notes>. The name wasn't changed during the upgrade to 4.5.
Renaming the node in db.xml fixes the empty list.
fyi: this breaks quick links, so you'll need to update those.

@Castigan,
Which ruleset was this original report for? I want to make sure that in the process of standardization across rulesets; I didn't impact one of the rulesets that needed an exception.
@Mike Serfass,
Probably don't want to change the DB link until we know the answer above, and I can account for that in the ruleset. Otherwise, other people will be missing notes too.
Thanks,

@Mike Serfass,
If this was related to SW, the exception for the Notes database location was restored.
@Castigan,
It sounded like you figured out that it was caused by an extension...

Thanks Moon Wizard!
