Conf.Language(118)

Error message

Conf.Language(118)

What it means

MoveDocs enforces the file-tree depth limit: resulting path depth (target slash count plus the moved subtree's own depth) may not exceed 6 levels unless 'Allow create deeper documents' is enabled (key 118). It is a settings-driven pre-check that fails before any file is touched.

Solutions

1. Enable Settings - File Tree - 'Allow create deeper documents' (AllowCreateDeeper)
2. Move the subtree to a shallower target path
3. Split or flatten the source hierarchy before moving

Example fix

// before
await fetchPost('/api/filetree/moveDocs', {fromPaths: deepPaths, toNotebook: boxID, toPath: '/a/b/c/d/e'})
// after
const depth = toPath.split('/').length - 1 + childDepth
if (depth > 6 && !allowCreateDeeper) { /* flatten or enable setting */ }
await fetchPost('/api/filetree/moveDocs', {fromPaths: deepPaths, toNotebook: boxID, toPath: '/a/b'})

const depth = toPath.split('/').length - 1 + childDepth(fromPaths); if (depth > 6 && !conf.fileTree.allowCreateDeeper) throw new Error('Move would exceed depth limit')

try { await fetchPost('/api/filetree/moveDocs', args) } catch (e) { if (String(e).includes('7 levels deep')) { /* flatten or enable AllowCreateDeeper */ } }

When it happens

Trigger: moveDocs where strings.Count(toPath,'/') + childDepth > 6 and Conf.FileTree.AllowCreateDeeper is false.

Common situations: Moving deep subtrees into already-nested folders; importing outlines with many nesting levels; users unaware the depth cap is enabled by default.
