Folder Renaming Loses Options

Postby mjpierce » Sun Jan 13, 2013 10:02 am

I did a search and did not see this mentioned before...

I have 6.42 build 2132.

If I rename a folder, all the options for that folder are lost.

1) Create a folder, say "Test".
2) Set an option for that folder on the folder properties window, like "Header Download Age".
3) Rename that folder.
4) Go back to properties and the options will be cleared.

I'll check it out. Can't say I'm surprised though. I never considered someone would work this way.

Thanks.

It occurred to me that I could have been a little more clear that all the folder creation and renaming mentioned happens inside of Newsbin.

In my case I had started with a few news groups in the folder and had named it "Misc".
I was only really looking for one type of thing so I renamed it "Foreign_(what i was looking for)".

Thanks for looking at this very minor issue.
