org_archive_location doesn't work with full paths

[nicolasdumitru]

Describe the bug

I tried to set the directory where files (or headings) get archived to a subdirectory called "archive" in my org files directory. It does not seem to work with absolut paths.

Steps to reproduce

Try to archive a headline.

Expected behavior

If HOME is the current user's home directory, the heading that you are trying to archive should get placed in ~/org/archive/<name_of_the_initial_file>.org_archive. Instead, it currently gets placed in ~/org/home/<your_user_name>/org/archive/<name_of_the_initial_file>.org_archive.

Get same error here. nvim-orgmode doesn't parse the string as a path, instead it will create a full path under the current directory.

This should be fixed now. Let me know if it's still broken.

I'm sorry, but I won't test it, as I don't use this plugin anymore. I have started using it the original Org mode and Emacs (for and only for Org mode), despite the fact that I think Emacs itself is a steaming pile of hot garbage. The reason is threefold:

• I need something that is fully functional ASAP.
• There is a (real) ecosystem around Emacs Org mode (cool things like Org Roam)
• I don't see why Org mode should be specific to one text editor or another. I might as well just use the more supported and popular original. There are also some subtle differences that I'd like to not have to account for.

I wish you and your project all the best!

No worries, thanks for reporting the issue anyway.
