Your experience with wallabag Android app

Have you had any luck using wallabag Android app before? (Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders)

I love the app and I'm really happy that the black theme was finally fixed! :)

hi @BNolet , thanks for your report.
What do you exactly mean by certain titles appearing on multiple lines?
Is this because the article's titles are so long?

I haven't experience this error yet. What do i need to do to reproduce this error?
Is it possible to post a screenshot of this error?

My apologies for the hasty bug report.

I'll provide a screenshot in not too long. This link was saved through the wallabagger extension though most articles saved via that method did not result in erroneous multi-line titles.

No problem. Thanks for your report and your support in clarifying the issue.

Now i think, i got the idea of the bug. I tested your article, but unfortunately the article list looks ok in my app. We are talking about the view of the article list, don't we?

This error did not occur in previous versions, e.g. 2.1.0, of the app? Or have you seen it before app version 2.2.0?

Here's a screenshot from 2.1.0:

Yes, this is in the list of articles.

Hello there,

Could you update the server version and refetch these articles to see if it's still there? I suspect it's an issue with one of the wallabag's dependencies we recently fixed.

Interesting enough it seems it wasn't an issue with the Android app but indeed with the server. Here's a screenshot of how I figured that part out:

The issue was with the fetching process rather than the issue being during viewing as the wrongly displayed title persisted after update.

After updating the server to 2.3.7 and re-fetching the "offending" articles, the issue does not persist.

Thanks for the help all. If this issue re-appears, I'll try these steps again and file the issue in the server repo.

Great :+1:

I'm closing this issue then.
