Tincr doesn't save files

[Martin Finke]

Tincr only works for live-reloading files, but it doesn't save file changes...I have set up the "Http Web Server" config and set all 3 checkmarks in the Tincr panel. Live-reloading works, saving doesn't. It doesn't log any errors to the console.

I use Chrome 28.0.1500.95 and Tincr 2.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.7.5.

There's another guy who describes the same problem:

Can someone please help?

Are you trying to make changes to the html file? That won't work.

No, CSS and JavaScript. CSS changes in the "Elements" panel aren't saved back (no LESS/SASS, just plain CSS). Saving a JavaScript file in the "Scripts" panel (using Cmd+S) doesn't work either.

Okay thanks,

Since you have logging turned on, Tincr should be printing messages to the console. It should be logging messages when it first starts up and also when you try to save. What is it saying?

When it starts up, there are several messages like this: "Content for url http://example/assets/css/style.css matches local file /Volumes/example/test2/assets/css/style.css". Some of them appear twice or even three times. There are no messages when I try to save, though.

I am also getting nothing.

[Ryan Ackley]

It must be something specific to your environment. I use Tincr everyday with no difficulties. The only suggestion I have is to try debugging the extension. 

Have you tried Chrome Workspaces?

Same here with Ubuntu 13.04 and Chrome Version 30.0.1599.114 Stable.

Turned on console logging/debugging but nothing gets printed even after Chrome restart.

That should be mentioned in the docs!  Did I understand you correctly?  Tincr can autosave changes made in the chrome dev tools back to the local file system, but only for "resources", such as CSS, JS, etc.    Not the plain HTML?

Could I just simply use the "Save as ..." menu in the browser? 

[Ryan Ackley]

Sorry, I just assumed that it's obvious. The html you view in the Elements panel is not the source of the page but the internal object model of the html you're viewing. Sometimes they will match but it's possible to lose data if you try to use it as an html editor. 

Try out Chrome Workspaces, it's a built-in Tincr-like thing that Google has added to the devtools.
