So on a restart they are 'lost'. This is probably the actual bug 4121, ' Moving a subfolder in another folder erases its processing rules', rather than the description given.
(In reply to comment #1) > after copying folder with 'inherit properties from parent folder' set, What i meant to say was 'when creating a new folder' rather than 'after copy folder'. Moving this folder after creating it thus will not carry over the unsaved processing rules, which is probably what you meant to say.
No, I didn't mean to say anything about copying or creating a folder but about moving it as this is what I did: I simply dragged and dropped it in another folder. Anyway this commit seems to fix it. Thanks :)
I could not reproduce what you described, only what I fixed. My fix did not alter (for me) what you described.
I see. Hm. I don't know if that changes the STR essentially but what I actually did initially was: 1. Have a folder structure like: + My Feeds (RSSyl) ++ Folder1 (no any processing rules) +++ Feed (with some processing rules) 2. Create Folder2 and structure becomes + My Feeds (RSSyl) ++ Folder1 +++ Feed ++ Folder2 3. Drag'n'drop Feed into Folder2 And the result was: the processing rules for Feed were lost.
