Watch topics items moving to unsorted folder?

Postby boatable » Mon Feb 17, 2014 10:26 am

I have an issue where watch topic items move to the unsorted folder. Random watch topic items move to unsorted after editing a watch topic item. The item that was edited does not move, but one of the others at random. I cannot move the watch topic item back to the watch topic as it thinks it is a newsgroup (or something). Any ideas? I have tried downgrading with no avail. Thanks in advance for any help.

6.51rc1, but upgraded from 6.50 final to see if it fixed the problem. When I say edit i mean change from s01e01 to s01e02 under a specific watch topic (right click on watch topic and choose properties). Do you know understand? Thanks very much this is driving me nuts. Everyday when I change to watch for a new episode I have to deal with it moving a watch topic to unsorted.

How many watch list entries do you have? Are any of them named the same as other topics in the group list?

I can't reproduce it so, I'm going to assume there's something in the naming of the watch lists I didn't anticipate.

Can you PM me a list of the watch list names?

The way the watch lists work, is that the watch list names are listed in the NBI file along with the groups.

[GROUPS]
..
..
..
Watch1
Watch2
Watch3
...


[WATCH1]
Parent=Watch_Topics

...

Each watch entry know who it's parent is. For your watches to drop into unsorted, that implies they're losing track of their parent.
