I had the SOGO connector before this Addon and it produces many errors in the Nextcloud LOG.
This plugin however works great!
Would be super cool if you could change the documentation here and add CardBook instead of SOGO: https://github.com/nextcloud/documentation/issues/529
Thank you!

Comme tant d'autres je galérais avec des synchro google, Sogo and company. Je trouve enfin LA soluce !!
J'ai pu synchroniser avec mon Framagenda en 3 secondes, ça marche!
Un endroit ou proposer des améliorations ou déclarer de petits bugs?

Makes categorization, merging, syncing etc work really smooth. Really like the "Find e-mails/calendar_entry related to this contact" feature.

After years of messing around with SOGo Connector and CategoryManager2 I FINALLY stumbled on CardBook. Love at first sight! ByeBye inbuilt address book!

in most recent 45.? and 52.?, email address autocomplete does not work any longer. The autocomplete list comes up for a short moment, but goes away and only the typed letters are there. Any ideas what could cause this? Conflict with other addons? To get autocomplete back: either safe mode or disable cardbook (Win 10 32 bit)
Thanks

So far so good. Just a bit of testing but so far I love this tool. Great UI and great Job. Hands down one of the best addon's I have ever seen thats written and maintained by an independent developer. Even has a forum for us users =^]
Thank you for filling this important void in Thunderbird!!

I have my own Kolab server and uses Thunderbird as a Linux client. I already had CalDAV and was looking for CardDAV. This add-on looked promising and surely delivered what I was hoping for. Now I manage to sync contacts between multiple clients and servers. Five stars *****

Использую приложения для синхронизации Thunderbird с контактами, хранящимися на сервере Nextcloud.
Всё работает отлично!

I use this addon since quite some months now and it has all the functions I miss at Thunderbird's address book.
Great!
There is just one issue: It is not possible to instruct Thunderbird's Junk filter not to mark mails from Cardbook addresses as junk as it is possible with addresses from Thunderbird's address book. So "good" mails get sorted out from time to time. Is it planned to implement this feature in the future?
In reply to Philippe: Oh, I was not aware of these possibilites of Thunderbird's filter. Now I filter the Cardbook addresses and set matches to "no junk" (filter runs before junk filter, of course). Thanks for pointing me to this!
I cannot override the junk filter and the quick filter bar because the job is done in C++ library... for the junk filter maybe you may create a filter to rearrange the moved emails...

There aren't many options to sync with a cardDAV server for Thunderbird. I've been struggling with Sogo connector for the last year, as their development has tailed off, and my suggestions for bugfixes have remained ignored.
Cardbook not only now actually works with my nextcloud/owncloud server, but it also wraps it up in a nice interface. Thanks Phillipe

This is very good, much better than SoGo Connector. A full replacement for the built-in address book would be awesome, like someone mentioned I see lots of confusion in peoples' minds about this.
I'd like to do a translation into my language, how would I go about it?
Also, it's be great if it followed regional settings for DOBs and such.

Excellent add-on. If you're looking for an app that allow you to sync your Gmail contacts with TB, Stop searching, You got it. Actually I rather installing this add-on than gContactsync.
I love it, try it and you will too.
Excelente add-on. Si estas buscando una app que te permita sincronizar tus contactos Gmail con TB, deja de buscar, la conseguiste!
De hecho prefiero instalar este add-onn que gContactsync
Me encanta, pruébalo y te encantará también.

there is a little problem for the moment with the Google CardDAV API : it does not sync the categories... they have a bug and they are not very reachable...

Hello
I personally have my own calendar and contacts server (radicale). After months of seeking a good solution to edit my contacts on my workstation (not on my mobile!), CardDavMATE (looks great on their server), whatever, nothing really worked, and Thunderbird's built in Address Book is not really the hype.
So I am very glad to be able to use CardBook now as address book (editing-) solution on my desktop. The version upgrade from x to 16.2 is great: No more flickering (probably by syncing with the server). CardBook is the only solution I know to associate several mobile phone numbers with a person!
What I would improve:
- If I create a remote address book with an invalid context path, validation is ok, but nothing is found (i.e. my address book is on server http://192.168.1.2:5232/user/contacts-20170132.vcf/ but I entered http://192.168.1.2:5232/user/contacts-201701132.vcf/)
- If I use an address book on a server that does only need a user name (instead of a username, password pair), I have to enter a password, to get on in the configuration dialog).
Great, congratulations.
Recommended add-on!

Great, that's what I missed a long time. It works fine for me - the Server is a Zimbra Collaboration Server (ZCS).

I am quite happy that this app 2-way syncs my android phone with TB via CardDAV service provided by my Synology NAS (DSM 6.0).
On android I use "ContactSync" - the price (1,50 EUR) is a good deal (made donation for CB as well!).
Even categrories can be seen on the phone!
Main pitfalls:
Synos CardDAV service can deal only with vCard Version 3.0 - this is not documented.
While transforming my existing contacts my android phone exported its local contacts as vCard Version 2.1 - CardBook did not complain but imported nothing. Had to convert to vCard Version 3.0 before.
"vCard Grid" (java program) did the job (but needs all keywords in uppercase!).
When activating CB, TB became very slow in the GUI. Eventually found this article: http://rainbow.chard.org/2013/02/19/thunderbird-high-cpu/
Did not observe the CPU-storm described there, but applying the proposed modification made the GUI working as smoothly as it was without CB! (you may try a more moderate change, say only 10 times).
