Bugs/Feature requests

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the software. I've tried multiple "offline" RSS readers (gReader, Pocket, etc) and I was never satisfied... TTRSS-Reader seems a lot simpler & better and seems a lot more configurable.

However, I have a few comments (sorry, for the moment, as I'm not sure they are proper issues per se, I'll put them all here):

• First and most important, when I click "share" in the menu that pops up after a long click on an article in the list of articles of a feed, only the subject of the mail(K9 Mail) is set but the body stays empty. When I click the "share" when the same article is opened, the subject of the mail is set with the title of the article and the URL is pasted in the body. The latter behaviour is what I would expect in both cases. When I do the same and share as a SMS (with Signal), in the first case an empty message is opened, in the second case a message with only the url. The latter is again what should always be the case.

-[This seems to have changed recently?] When I'm in the "list of articles" view, if I tag an article as "read", the behaviour is not the same as when I actually open the artilce, read it, then come back to the list view. In the first case, the article is greyedout, in the second case it is removed from the list (or the converse? I'm not sure). Why so?

• When I "read" an article by mistake (be it by tagging the article as "read" or by actually reading it) and it disappears, how can I undo my action (i.e. make it appear again in the "toread" list) ?

• In the "list of articles" view, why is the (useful) icon of the feed shown in very small next to the date, when the (useless) RSS icon is shown in big? Why not use only the feed's icon?

• In the popup menu of the "list of articles" view there is a "mark articles above read". Why not a "mark articles below read". Indeed, as the articles below are the oldest, they are the ones I would like to mark as read even if I have not, so that they can be removed from cache if necessary. The converse is wrong: the above articles are more recent articles, I want them to stay in my "todo/toread" list!

Thanks

Hi,

Just to complement my list:

• I also miss a "search" option that would search either in the titles or contents
• In some of my RSS feeds, like kickassfacts or hackernews, the content in the main rss feed is bad (e.g. limited to a link nammed "comments") so I would appreciate if it would be possible to transform the option "for empty articles open url" into something like "if article is less than X chars, then open url" (ideally, where X would be configurable)
• Would be great to be able to "empty cache older than X days" (ideally, where X would be configurable) or "remove read articles (but not those marked favorites)"
• There's a "random" bug in the list view : when you use the popup menu to tag articles as read or as favorites, there's a moment when the list view starts scrolling automatically to the top everytime you end tagging an article (maybe it is because/when the list of articles is self-updating thus changing the respective articles positions?). This can generally be stopped by actually opening an article and coming back to the list view.

IMHO it would be much better if you submitted each issue as separate bug/enhancemnt/support request, as it is impossible to track them otherwise (and as such is unlikely to be resolved...)

If they are not bugs, they can be explained and closed, while leaving other issues active until resolved...

Also, it is good practice to say which version of TTRSS-Reader you're using.

Anyway, an answer for few:

• you can long press on article to mark it unread again. (If you already exited the feed, you must first click "..."/ "Display all" to see read articles.)

• for "mark above as read" you can click on menu ("...") and select "invert order" so it will do what you want.
