Tips

If QOwnNotes logs Could not write secret to keychain, install a Secret Service implementation and restart your desktop session.

For GNOME and other Secret Service based desktops, install gnome-keyring, libsecret and seahorse from your Slackware repositories or SlackBuilds.

For KDE Plasma, install KWallet support such as kwalletmanager.

QOwnNotes will fall back to legacy encryption if the desktop keychain is unavailable.
