BUG: CATEGORY and STATUS no longer saved in list-level XML

[Tony G]

Dan, comparing a v7.0.10 and v7.0.11 version of one of my test lists, I noticed that the <CATEGORY> and <STATUS> was no longer being saved at the list level. I'm talking about user-provided data where the preferences are set to allow new values to be entered.

The following reduced-size screenshot from WinMerge, a document comparison utility, shows a backup of a v.10 file compared to the same document saved with v.11, and the sections for these fields no longer contains the data.

I have the entries (new categories) twice in my TDL-file: at the beginning and at the end:

 

14 <CATEGORY>qqqqqqqq</CATEGORY>

142 <CATEGORY>qqqqqqqq</CATEGORY>

Pierre, sincere thanks for checking this on your system!
We do expect to see that category within the task where it is used, AND at the task level.
I'm guessing line 14 is inside a task? If so, that's OK.
Regards,
T

Sorry for the confusion – you are right. I was misleaded by the linebreak in my editor ...

Thx Tony

Can you send me the 2 comparison tasklists pls?

[.dan.g.]

ps. I'm unable to repeat this on 7.0.11. ie. Saving the tasklist correctly saves the top-level categories and statuses.
