Description Axel Braun 2024-01-19 15:15:15 UTC
I am trying to create a wireguard VPN connection. All parameter entered, tick 'Save', an error message comes up telling me that the connection could not be saved as the name is longer than 15characters. The input is gone.

Current behaviour: all data entry is lost
Expected behaviour: return to the configuration window in order to correct potential error.

PS: It not only length of name, it may as well be special characters or the fact the 'method auto is not supported in IPv6'. All kinds of errors basically. After 5 times failed to create a wireguard conncetion I'm close to know the secret key by heart :-(
