Source URLs lost when merging

[doktorzirb 54]

The new merging procedure is absolutely fantastic, and the way the new client version deals with EN Web clipper is far superior w.r.t. older releases, including the source URL under the title, consequently preserving it when merging. But note that this does not apply for notes captured an imported in older EN Windows client releases.

When merging notes captured with Web-clipper and imported into EN with older releases of EN for Windoes, only the source URL of the first note in the merging list preserves the URL. You lose the source URL of the other ones for good.

Please note that this is a critical feature, because it really lead to critical information loss.

This was requested in the beta version (sadly delivered on an as-is basis)

This feature (including the source URL when printing or merging) was in the options panel, which has also vanished

The situation is much more serious than this. For several types of webclippings the only place you will find the source url is as the note url in the note info window. It does not appear in the body of the note and is hence lost when the notes are merged. This is therefore a live issue and is not just for webclippings imported into the old version.

The three types of webclippings where you will loose the url on merging are:

1. Webclips of pdfs 
2. Webclips created as screenshots
3. Webclips of selected text (ie select text first and then hit the webclipper icon)
