Description Ivan 2020-10-26 11:12:45 UTC 
SUMMARY

Basically, every time I open KOrganizer I have to select the Nextcloud calendars I want to see again, whereas that does not happen with the Google account, for example, as it remembers what I want to see. 

The calendar Plasma applet also fails to do this, I think it is the same service failing. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Link Nextcloud account
2. Select calendars in KOrganizer
3. Restart computer
4. Open KOrganizer again.

OBSERVED RESULT
I lose my "want-to-see" Nextcloud calendars every time and I have to select them to see them. Very annoying. 

EXPECTED RESULT
When I select calendars they should stay selected until I manually change the configuration.

Comment 1 gjditchfield 2020-10-26 14:57:19 UTC 
I can't reproduce this with KDE Neon, Plasma 5.20.1, Frameworks 5.75.0, Qt 5.15.0.

Is this a new problem, or did you see it in older versions as well?
Comment 2 Ivan 2020-10-29 08:32:04 UTC 
Well, yes, I think it's been happening for a while, maybe months even.
Comment 3 Ivan 2020-10-29 08:33:02 UTC 
Could it be that if there is a bit of a misconnection to the server, somehow the data gets reseted or something?
Comment 4 gjditchfield 2021-05-05 20:37:38 UTC 
Is this problem still affecting you?

If so, does it only happen when you restart, or does it also happen if you quit KOrganizer and relaunch it without logging out?

If so, here is something to check.  The calendar selection is stored in file ~/.config/kontactrc (if KOrganizer is running inside Kontact) or ~/.config/korganizerrc (if KOrganizer is running stand-alone).  Either file should have a GlobalCollectionSelection section that would look something like

  [GlobalCollectionSelection]
  Current=x-1
  Selection=c281,c64

The "cXXX" strings are the collection IDs of the selected calendars.  If you run akonadiconsole and use its DB Browser tab to look at the collectiontable, you can figure out which calendar is which.

KOrganizer writes out the current selection to the appropriate config file when it quits.  Please make some changes to your calendar selection, close KOrganizer, and check whether the changes were saved properly.
