Title: [SOLVED] Nicknames broken in quick search
Post by: riki on 31 03 2015, 15:28:39

Hello, it's already a couple of months that the nicknames in my quicksearch are all gibberish. However, they look OK in the contact list. A screenshot is attached. I tried running the database repair utility, but the problem isn't solved. What can I do?

Stop using Chinese.. simple as that :P
No... dunno what's wrong with yours... Are you using Miranda NG and the latest version?
Because my "Quick Search" got some checkboxes on the table header, so that I can select which fields to search in (such as nicknames)

You need to change result type of that column - or just press reset columns and it will be ok then.

Robyer, was this caused by some changes we made? If so, should we handle such cases with old settings? Either inform the user to reset stuff or "convert" it?

riki, Options->Contacts->Quick Search and there the big red record-like default settings button^^

White-Tiger, ask Awkward, he did those changes :-)
