Description Frans Englich 2006-10-08 16:37:46 UTC
Version:           0.11.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

I attempted to add an ICQ contact("Add contact...") and clicked "Use the KDE address book". However, when I clicked "Create new Entry..." in the second page and filled in the name, it didn't show up in the list, nor in KAddressbook in Kontact. I did neither receive any feedback for why this failed.

I have no idea what can cause this. My address book is stored on an IMAP server, although it works splendidly in other cases and I would be surprised if such a low level thing affected Kopete.

I've previously exported Kopete contact to my KDE address book, although I don't remember if I did that before or after I converted to an IMAP-stored as opposed to a local address book.

Btw, one can't select "0.11.3" in the version list. I'm selecting the most recent possible(0.11.1).

Works for me.   Can you try again with 0.12.3 (in 3.5.5)?
Comment 3 Frans Englich 2006-11-05 15:37:00 UTC
I'll try in 3.5.5, but I'll have to wait a week or even two, I think.
Comment 4 Stefan Monov 2007-02-21 20:50:52 UTC
I have this problem in Kopete 0.12.4, KDE 3.5.6.
I can add contacts to my Jabber account but not to the ICQ one.
Comment 5 Stefan Monov 2007-02-21 21:08:28 UTC
However, once I've added a contact in another client, adding in Kopete works too.
Comment 6 FiNeX 2008-11-19 11:02:02 UTC
Adding contacs seems to work on current trunk (KDE4). If you confirm it too, we can close this report.
Comment 7 FiNeX 2008-12-20 18:19:36 UTC
Someone else can confirm the current status of this bug?

Many thanks!

Thank you for the bug report.

As this report hasn't seen any changes in 5 years or more, we ask if you can please confirm that the issue still persists.

If this bug is no longer persisting or relevant please change the status to resolved.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
