What I’m trying to do
View plugin Kanban version: 2.0.51 board on Desktop Obsidian App Current version: v1.9.12 (Installer version: v1.4.16), which previous to sync, appeared.
Left side bar → Files → Kanban → boards and board list card notes appear, however no boards showing?
Things I have tried
Sync usually updates phone Obsidian to desktop bare repository, which Obsidian desktop then pulls for an update, no problems.
I renamed phone Obsidian Kanban board from Board of daily stuff and Board of projects, to Board daily stuff and Board projects.
Here’s the bare git repository output:
