Imported buddies- issue with comma separated list of buddies

Post by pmareschal »

Hello,
I have a small issue with buddies. In 1.5.3, buddies were on a comma separated list a, b, c.
In 2, they were imported as a single buddy named "a, b, c".
Soooo, would it be possible to "split" all buddy names that have a coma in them and create 2 or more buddies from the comma separated list.


(Also, we would probably need a reconciliation mechanism with Address Book.)

MacDive is really getting great. (I cannot wait for Dive Log Manager to polish the iPad version.)

I can look at patching this for the next version, though you'd have to reimport your data from MacDive 1.5.3. In the short term, you'd probably be better manually fixing it.

The buddies are sort of linked to AB now. When you search for a buddy it will auto complete from there.

Update - this is patched for the next version. Like I said, you'd have to re-import from your macdive 1.5.3 data, but it's fixed for the future anyway.

Good spotting..
