[Christiann]

Tks for your amazing support!

[Christiann]

Bummer ;

there must be a way, maybe with openstreetmaps? It would just be too sweet top be able to create contact maps right out of Cardbook. I will check out the APIs.

[Christiann]

I still would like this feature badly, as it would be so helpful to plan any trip.

If the map API allows sending multiple locations, then my enhancement idea might be simple to implement.

[Christiann]

That would be wonderful!

[Christiann]

The duplicate contact is displayed in the CB list (centre) twice: original and update, see here

https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=XZXDjMXZn12uQne8ddk7ODDRilz69m1fmcYy

It seems the issue is with the list, as both new and old contact point to the identical vCard of the updated contact.

The issue is intermittent.

[Christiann]

Cardbook log showed “contact updated”.

[Christiann]

The duplicate contacts (in the display) have identical vCards and IDs. When I restart TB the duplicate is gone.

The activity shows “contact updated”.

[Christiann]

Will observe closely next time and also take some screen shots.

[Christiann]

Tks, I missed the obvious…

[Christiann]

Another work-around is to move the faulty contacts into a newly created v 3.0 book, delete the “undefined” from the fields, as there are visible in v 3.0, then re-import the fixed contacts into the v 4.0 cardbook.

Again, why do you recommend using the older 3.0 version over 4.0?

[Christiann]

Tks keymaster this works.

Two suggestions:

• Sanity check should happen the moment a contact is imported, not only when it is saved.
• The input mask that enforces a correct format for Birthday could be used for all dates.

Why do you recommend 3.0 over 4.0?

[Christiann]

I have upgraded my contacts from 3.0 to 4.0 because NEXTCLOUD is using the 4.0 standard. I am happy to report that all but 10/1000 contacts synch fine.

Upgrade was done by copy/paste the 3.0 contacts into a new 4.0 cardbook.

The 10 contacts that have issues with contain

ANNIVERSARY:undefined
DEATHDATE:undefined

I have no idea why these 10 contacts have their fields filled with “undefined”, already present in 3.0.

These corrupt contacts annot be fixed with the cardbook GUI and any save results in
Date field value (undefined) does not match the date format of the address book (4.0)
Here is my test case:

This is a very useful request. The solution would make maintaining large books a lot easier.

 

[Christiann]

Maybe related to my previous post:

When clicking on a phone number VIBER pops open, but the number is not transmitted.

Ideally, I would like to be able to dial a phone number while reading the mail, RM over the address and “Dial with Cardbook” – that would be close to heaven.

 

[Christiann]

You fixed it, excellent thank you!

I confirm that with version 26.7a there is only a single editing window per contact.
