In my address book i have groups setup so i can quickly filter out what i dont want now having moved to 11.3 and KDE4.4.4 where are the groups they have all gone and i cant find any mention of them anywhere , How o i get them back they are there because they are needed not for someone to come along and thow in the can
No one has thrown anything in the can. Kaddressbook in 4.4.4 is known to have certain features currently unavailable. The groups you created are still there (from what I read on it) just not visible in 4.4.4 for various reasons. You may find it shows back up again in KDE4.5.0. or 4.5.1. Basically, they are working on it. I don't use KAddressBook... I look at it in KDE4.5.0 and I see a New Contact Group button... if I click it, I can add contact group members. It looks a bit like a mailing list function though... the old distribution list functionality. I assume this is not what you're looking for?
Also where is all the configuration of Kaddressbook 2 things thats all
contact actions > pick web browser or phone dialing skype or external app
the LDAP well i dont use LDAP and i doubt most home users use LDAP where are the settings .
This is a very very big backward step i cant remember it being this bad for a long time if this is thanks to the non functioning (running but for what) then i suggest we move away from it and lets get back with something that works and if that means multiple metadata staks then so be it this is a no hoper right now
It's being reworked and redesigned. Things aren't going to be quite right until they get it closer to the spec. What you see in the 4.4.4 release of KDE4 is not the final goal of KAddressBook... it's a snapshot of how far the developers got so far. There is a lot more planned for it - again, from what I read when I searched for info on this before replying. KDE.org has a load of info available... including indications of where these well used apps should end up. Before you go off about releasing incomplete apps etc etc etc... at least they released something that works rather than adding in all the functionality you demand all at once and having it completely broken. Better to have a working app now and the prospect of getting the features added back in as the releases increment than have everything thrown in and it be hopelessly broken.
