Bug ID: 340316
Summary: Custom field titles and field types not saved with
vCard
Product: kaddressbook
Version: unspecified
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Only the UUID key and value is saved with the vCard, so when imported back in
you lose the title and field type.
For example...
Favorite Color: Blue (text)
Likes Carrots: [x] (boolean)
...imports back as...
c2547fb3-b58a-4290-bb4e-6cbc32ff2a33: Blue (text)
1d01a796-d646-4359-9094-ac448aaa4c80: true (text)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create custom fields for a contact, using various types
2. Export vCard
3. Import vCard
Actual Results:
Imported contact has custom fields with just the UUID as its title instead of
the custom title, and type information is lost and the value always treated as
text.
Expected Results:
Custom field titles and type information retained on import because they get
exported with the vCard.
Global custom field titles are retained because their titles are stored outside
of the vCard. However, these also are lost if imported into a different
KAddressBook install, etc.
Right now custom fields are stored like this...
X-KADDRESSBOOK-c2547fb3-b58a-4290-bb4e-6cbc32ff2a33:Blue
X-KADDRESSBOOK-1d01a796-d646-4359-9094-ac448aaa4c80:true
Maybe change it to something like this?...
X-KADDRESSBOOK-CF:text:c2547fb3-b58a-4290-bb4e-6cbc32ff2a33:Favorite Color:Blue
X-KADDRESSBOOK-CF:bool:1d01a796-d646-4359-9094-ac448aaa4c80:Likes Carrots:true
