Set location for all notes

[francisco-simoes]

org-noter asks me where I want to store the note, but none of those locations is the one I want. I want all notes to be stored in a certain path like ~/username/Notes. I did not find a variable that I could set for this to happen.

Ideally it could use the bibtex-completion-notes-path variable from org-ref and ivy-bibtex. But since this is not the case, is there a workaround?

Anybody else interested in this? I'd like to do this to add the notes directly to my org-roam directory to help me locate things a bit easier.

See the variable org-noter-notes-search-path defined at

org-noter/org-noter.el

Line 177 in 9ead81d

(defcustom org-noter-notes-search-path '("~/Documents")

So I actually tried that IIRC (will try again shortly). It would definitely search there for files, but it still failed to write the documents there by default, especially when starting a new note taking session from within pdftools. I'll add an edit to this once I have the chance to try it again.

Anybody interested found any workaround?
