Description Roguefort 2024-08-28 19:36:00 UTC

SUMMARY
When attempting to import a .ics calendar from KOrganizer, the file doesn't show up on the file chooser.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to "Add a calendar" from the calendar manager or KOrganizer's calendar settings
2. Select "File from iCal Calendar" 
3. Select the .ics calendar file

OBSERVED RESULT
The .ics calendar file doesn't show up on the file chooser. The only workaround is the name

EXPECTED RESULT
The .ics calendar file shows up.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 40
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2
Kernel Version: 6.10.6-200.fc40.x86_64 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Not sure if this is the correct way of importing a .ics calendar file, but online sources suggest that it's this way.

I have a video showcasing the bug, but it's 7.8 MBs, a bit above the 4 MB file limit.

iCal File resource - fix create dialog "File or URL" filter

Rely on KUrlRequester to do the right thing.
With this patch the open file dialog shows the filter "VCS/ICS calendar"
and properly filters .ics files.

Previousy, the open file dialog showed the filter "text/calendar"
and didn't filter .ics files.

Comment 4 Roguefort 2025-04-12 20:49:57 UTC

Still occurs on Plasma 6.3.4. Unfortunately, this bug hasn't been fixed.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
A workaround for this bug is to go to the folder where the .ics file is located and paste the name of the file + the .ics extension.
