Chunky Comic Reader only shows certain Dropbox folders
I've used Chunky Comic reader for years because it's got a great Dropbox integration- I can browse my whole Dropbox hierarchy and import comics I've bought.
But, after getting a new iPad recent...
Playing with this a little more, it seems like only folders with a recent enough modified date will show up. I updated the modified date for my comics folder and it showed up in API responses immediately. Definitely doesn't seem like intended behavior, but I'm glad it's working again!
I had this problem a lot -- both folders and individual files on Dropbox missing from Chunky's interface. I found that renaming a folder would make it and its files visible in Chunky, so that became a routine thing. This fits with Chunky having problems seeing older Dropbox items.
Unfortunately, yesterday Chunky stopped seeing anything in the root Dropbox folder, which makes no sense as things on Dropbox are constantly being updated. Renaming doesn't help, creating new folders doesn't help. Chunky is effectively dead on my ipad now and I am shopping for a different reader.
ETA: I removed Dropbox as an account, uninstalled Chunky, reinstalled Chunky, and added Dropbox. Now if I rename a folder, I can see it, but I can ONLY see the two most recently renamed folders. I am really curious about what would cause this.
I'll give it a shot, although when this started happening a few years ago, I never got a response from the developer. Thanks!
