Hello everyone. I've received a couple mails from new users saying they couldn't use the readonlytagger. I found a small bug that caused a failure in authentication. This should be fixed now. But users who authenticated in past 2 days, please re-login and things should be back to normal.

Hey! Thank you for noticing that. It was broken for a little while as I was doing some updates, moved the server etc. It's up and running now again. I actually made some simplifications to the usage. Please have a look at this page: http://onat.me/readonlymaker Sorry for the inconvenience caused by the downtime. --- Here are the changes, a release note per se: 1. It's just "lock" for locking and "unlock" for unlocking. 2. No makemigration, as it was virtually never used. 3. Optimizations for the rate limit. heavy users, won't be blocked out due to rate limits of evernote. 4. Servers moved to google cloud from predix, so uptime will not suffer platform issues anymore. Happy locking!

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that I've provided a solution to this problem a while ago. Instructions are available here: http://onat.me/readonlymaker If you want to learn more, I have some more comments in this thread, a little old by now but this solution still works, there actually are a quite a number of users. It doesn't need anything to use, you just add "readonly" as a tag to a note, and they're locked in evernote in next sync, simple as that, works in every platform. Best, Onat If you have any feedback, kindly reach out via evernote certified consultants page ( https://evernote.com/certified-consultants ) by searching with my name or via my website .

Haha yeah. Unfortunately, there’s absolutely no way of reverting a readonly note to a modifiable state. ContentClass is immutable and you’re not allowed to change it. What i did is a workaround.

Hello everyone. I just saw this thread and wanted to share my solution to this. I had this exact same problem, and it looks like that's possible on the programming interface, but not in the application. So I've written an application to mark notes readonly through the API. You can use this to have read-only functionality in Evernote, it's very easy to use.. Here's the link to it. http://onat.me/readonlymaker I've been using it for a while and it's gained some more users in the past year and I must say it completely changed my way of using evernote. Now whenever I have a note that's not readonly, I get restless. In case anyone wants to build on this, here's the code https://github.com/onatbas/readonlytagger

No problem. Have fun

Yes there is. See this page :http://onat.me/readonlymaker

Hello everyone. It's been some tıme I had my eye on read-only notes. Today I reserved some time into doing this and created a simple web app. It works like this: you tag your notes with a tag called 'readonly' and every five minutes, the system checks your notes and makes tagged ones read-only. You can subscribe to the service via : https://ro-app.run.aws-usw02-pr.ice.predix.io/ . Plese note that this is a 2-3 hour work and I will not maintain it in terms of look etc. It simply does what it promises to do. If there's a huge interest in the project I might allocate some more time into it, though. Cheers, Onat

I didn't think it would get that much of an attention. But I guess people indeed needed it. So, I just wanted to say that the project is still active. I updated the link above to the recent page. Happy locking!. ---- Please checkout this comment for further details:
