Version: 0.6.1a (using KDE KDE 3.1) Installed from: Slackware Packages OS: Linux The passive popups when a buddy signs on are a GREAT feature... but, it's kind of annoying to have twelve or thirteen of them come up at once when I initially connect. Can we have an option to supress those popups when Kopete makes a new connection? IMO, Kopete is the first IM client for KDE that's truly better than Gaim... thanks for a great product.

This has not completely been fixed. anyway, there are few progress.. 1) there are not anymore notification when starting kopete 2) some protocol are fixed.
*** Bug 63964 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
To be precise: This has been fixed in Kopete CVS HEAD for AIM and ICQ. Other protocols probably have to use a fixed timer and set their status from connecting to connected after hitting that timer. For ICQ it's easy because you can wait for EXACTLY one packet after connect (one huge packet telling you who is online on your list, aka initial-presence-info).

Has this been fixed? if not, for what protocols is it still a problem and can we fix them before release?
This is still a problem for AIM, as of 01/05/04 CVS
This problem still happens with the MSN protocol, kopete 0.8 (kde 3.2.0) I hope it can be fixed, because it's very annoying.
Subject: kdenetwork/kopete CVS commit by mklingens: Suppress online notifications for 5 seconds after you connected to an account, so you don't get the annoying popups anymore. CCMAIL: 55932-done@bugs.kde.org The fix *can* be backported to KDE 3.2.x/0.8.x (I'll attach the diff to the bug report), but I want to await feedback from HEAD first. You may have to wait for the next major Kopete/KDE release to see the fix if we forget about backporting in a couple of weeks ;-) M +4 -3 kopete/contactlist/kopetemetacontactlvi.cpp 1.61 M +36 -2 libkopete/kopeteaccount.cpp 1.84 M +22 -2 libkopete/kopeteaccount.h 1.43
Created attachment 4565 [details] Suppress online status notifications when going online yourself Patch for the 3.2 branch, for those interested in applying and not running CVS HEAD.
Please don't forget to backport, if you can! ;^) This is definitely is an irritation (both the noise, and the fact that the notification windows cover up my panel; and Kopete's usually so busy popping them up, that the topmost one is always blank!) Thanks!!! :^)

Suppressing online notifications for 5 seconds after you connected is a very bad idea for "Log to file" or/and "Print a message to standard error output" notifications as noone would expect this behaviour, a log file and stderr messages are (and so should be) completely independent from user interface affecting notifications. The solution: Only suppress user interface affecting notifications or create log files or/and stderr messages independently from knotify. Also see Bug 96730.
