Description adam.hawthorne 2009-03-27 20:08:25 UTC
Version:           0.70.0 (using 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.27-14-generic

I have an WLM IM account and a Google IM account.  Currently, for some of my WLM contacts, I can move a contact from the '~' group to my 'Friends' group, but as soon as I restart Kopete, the contact reappears in the '~' group.

More history:  I've used Kopete since at least KDE 3.4, maybe even earlier, when the plugin was still called MSN.  When I upgraded from 3.5 to 4.1 through Kubuntu, all of my MSN/WLM contacts were duplicated.  One of the duplicates appeared offline, and the other contact's status reflected their true state.  I deleted all the offline contacts.  I'm not claiming it's related, but it was an issue that seemed related.

The only plugin I use is the History plugin.

probably something missing from the wlm plugin since it's brand new code.

I can confirm that bug

You re-added your account, didn't you? if that's the case it is related to the fact that the wlm protocol isn't automagically migrating the accounts from the msn protocol.

I did re-add the account.  I discovered this issue after I re-added my account and fixed all my contacts.  I don't think it's that the contacts aren't migrated, just that the wlm plugin does not appear to support changing a group (maybe not creating a group?)
