adding effects to ~/.local/share/ ... does not work [Linux]

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Greetings,
[Update, skip down to update - snap install issue..]
Added directory as per document:
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/olivevideoeditor.org/Olive/effects

I added the effects directory to the created directory:
~/.local/share/olivevideoeditor.org/Olive/effects
with result:
~/.local/share/olivevideoeditor.org/Olive/effects/Olive-Editor-Community-Effects-master

The permissions were opened up for director also have no effect:
sudo chmod -R ug+rwx ~/.local/share/olivevideoeditor.org

I do not see the community effects in the effects options menu

Added new sequence added, added Solid color, selected it, no community effects menu items in effects menu list

UPDATE:
After review I have installed using snap, so it has a different reference point for inclusion:

/snap/olive-editor/2/share/olive-editor/effects

which is read-only, so you can't tamper with that mount point of read only, so it remains you have to install in the local home reference point for snap like:
ls -la ./snap/olive-editor/2/.local/share/olive-editor/

after putting in try to add effects there like:
./snap/olive-editor/2/.local/share/olive-editor/effects/Olive-Editor-Community-Effects-master
or
./snap/olive-editor/2/.local/share/olive-editor/Olive-Editor-Community-Effects-master

still no go.

How does one add the effects with a snap install?
