1. "Sign in with Dropbox on the Small Victories website (top right). In a couple of steps it leads you through naming and creating your website (I just chose a "Homepage" site type). It creates this site in a primary folder in your Dropbox directory called "Small Victories" - note that this folder is not a subfolder under "Apps", as Updog was.
2. If you choose the same site name and library name as you used with Updog, moving everything over to Small Victories is very easy. E.g., if you previously had an ebook library in Dropbox/Apps/updog/YourSite/YourLibrary, you just need to move the "YourLibrary" folder from that location to Dropbox/Small Victories/YourSite/. I just opened the Dropbox app on my PC to cut/paste this folder to its new location.
3. Depending upon the size of your Library, you need to give Dropbox time to update itself - in my case, this took 10-15 minutes. You then need to update the links in your OPDS Reader, and in Calibre2opds as well. In my case I also had to rerun Calibre2opds before I could download books, as I have included a "Books URL" in the Main Options of Calibre2opds. |
This is very exciting! I'll have to spend a few hours (days) retraining myself a to how this all works
It seems too that smvi.co actually does store the "bits" in the Apps directory (or, at least, it has mine).
Thank you! I'm looking forward to getting underway again!

Ready to create your first site?
You now have a "Small Victories" folder in your "Apps" folder in Dropbox.
This is where your sites will live.
