Version: 1.4.2 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-11-generic If I mark a posting as "important" and switch to a different feed, and come back again, that posting is gone. This sucks a lot, since akregator is deleting _the most important posts_! :-((( ! The flag "do not delete important articles" in the "archive" configuration section is switched on. *t (My akregator is all in german, so the text quoted above are actually my translations from german to english - I guess you will be able to guess the precise english texts within akregator)
Cannot reproduce. The important flag is handled here as expected (4.3 though, but there wasn't a fix in that area to my knowledge). Which archive settings do you use? (Expiry, or "No archive" in Advanced page of the Settings).

Wow, this is _still_ reproducible with 4:4.4.2-0ubuntu5.
I'm still unable to reproduce with ~4.5beta2. I tried: - set 'delete older than 1 day' for a given feed, - mark a few messages in this feed as important, - wait 24 hours, The important messages are still there while the normal ones were deleted.

I don't have to wait to have the "important" messages deleted. I simply have to switch between two different feeds - that's it. So again: I go to a feed, select a posting/message, mark it as important, I select a different feed, I select the first feed again and voilà, the message that was marked as important is no more there. I can provide you with all the settings if you want. I can't test V4.5 though, since I'm on 4.4. *t
Good idea, please attach your akregatorrc (from ~/.kde/share/config) and your feeds.opml (from ~/.kde/share/apps/akregator/data)

This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present? If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of akregator (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.08 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
