What is the best way to enable webdav sync for notetaking apps that require dotfiles/hidden folders?

[shucking]

I am testing synchronization with Obsidian via a plugin and Joplin, but an issue I'm having is with the hidden folders with files necessary app config. I'm getting a 403 Access Denied. Obsidian has .obsidian and Joplin has .sync.

What is the best way to about allowing read and write to these sort of files? I see this code block in the apache .htaccess and I'm guessing some manipulation is required here.

Ideally, I would keep it scoped down to the specific dotfiles/hidden folders.

Thanks!

Hey @shucking

We can add a rewrite condition to allow dotpaths via webdav but keep the global block for plain http

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/webdav\.php/ [NC]

It's updated in v2.11.1.

Amazing, will try it out once I'm able!

Got Joplin working really well 👍
