Category: None Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Phredegast (phredegast) Assigned to: Richard Laager (rlaager) Summary: auto combine duplicate contacts in displayed list Initial Comment: This RFE is for an enhancement to the buddy list display. Currently, if I log into two different accounts at the same time (say, for instance, my work and personal AIM accounts), and if I have the same person in both buddy lists, that person appears in the displayed buddy list twice. The desired behavior would be similar to that found in AdiumX, where the duplicated entries are recognized as duplicates and displayed only once. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-10 16:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im.

You might get some false negatives, but false positives can be avoided. Duplicate buddies could then be automatically combined into a contact, with the ordering of buddies in the contact determined by the ordering of accounts in the account list (or undefined, it probably doesn't matter). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Etan Reisner (deryni9) Date: 2005-08-08 16:21 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=516184 Right-click->Expand->drag buddies together->hit little close arrow->done. Doing this automatically is problematic when names across protocols look the same but aren't the same person (as one example). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=1254428&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
