Notebook stacks

How and how many notebooks/folder under the notebooks/folder (tree) can I do in Evernote ?

Evernote does not have folders, only Stacks, Notebooks, and Notes.

Stacks may contain 2 or more Notebooks, but Notebooks can not contain sub-notebooks.  Notebooks can contain only Notes.

However, you may use tags as pseudo Notebooks, and have as many levels (sub-pseudo NB) as you like.
For more info, see:

• Using Tags as Pseudo Notebooks
• Do you find lots of notebooks or notebook stacks useful?

Per @JMichaelTX one level of notebooks in a stack.  You can have 250 notebooks in total in EN, so either 250 notebooks to spread across however many stacks you have, AFAIK.

I believe Stacks count in the Notebook count.  So you can have a combined total of 250 (Stacks + Notebooks).

Good to know, I wasn't sure.  I was using this old, old post as a reference for stacks not counting.

I'm not 100% sure.  I can't find any current official Evernote document/page that states this.
The limit is based on my memory.  Here is the only reference I can find:

I read the following on the Evernote website:

"Each Evernote account is subject to the following limitations:

• 100,000 Notes; each note can be a maximum of 25 megabytes (mb) for free users and 100 megabytes (mb) for Premium users.
• 250 Synchronized Notebooks (including Notebook Stacks). All 250 notebooks can be shared. There is no limit to the number of Local Notebooks (which aren't synced) you can have.
• 10,000 Tags.
• 100 Saved Searches."

Even this is confusing to me.  It says all 250 notebooks can be shared as well.  Pretty sure you can't share a stack.  Oh well, @Caporeira, net of it all you should be safe planning for a total of 250 notebooks and stacks before you press the limits.

That's one of the reasons I said that I was NOT 100% sure.  BTW, your quote shows me as the source.  The actual source was @Litleape in this post.

[CalS 5,280]

Ditto and edited source.

@JMichaelTX and @csihilling

Great detective work! Confirming the following:

• Sharing stacks is not supported. Stacks are specific to a user's individual account.
• Notebook stacks count towards your 250 notebook limit.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Could you please update the Evernote Limits document?
