Can't Unsubscribe From Feed

Post by bartron »

Ever since I started running Vienna 3.0beta I have been unable to unsubscribe from feeds. I select the feed, and then select Folder->Unsubscribe from Feed from the menu, and then nothing happens and the feed is still working (i.e. Vienna still downloads articles from the feed.) The problem occurs whether the feed is in a folder or not, and it happens with all the feeds I've subscribed to. e.g. http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot

My current setup:

Vienna Version 3.0.0 Beta 19 :40267c3
OS X 10.6.8 with all the latest updates

It would be great if you could fix that.

Thanks !

Unsubscribe leaves the feed in the list but stops downloading new articles from it.
Are you sure it isn't working? Perhaps you meant to delete the feed entirely which is different?

Hi - thanks for reporting this. Yes, the intention is to keep the feed in the list (i.e. old articles) but stop fetching new ones.

Reviewing the code, this is a feature which needs to be added back in. There's a "TOFIX" comment, which I'll fix shortly.

It is being tracked on Github by Issue #236. A pull request is pending with the necessary code changes to reimplement this feature in Vienna Beta 3.

One more thing, Feed->Resubscribe to Feed doesn't work either. As with Unsubscribe, it does nothing.

They are linked to each other behind the scenes.
The patch under code review as is would resolve both.
