DESCRIPTION
XML tags are not saved correctly in the Tellico database when they contain
emoticons.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a field (of the ‘Checkbox’ or ‘Choice’ type, for content filtering)
whose title contains an emoticon
2. Then, in at least one record in the database, fill in one of these fields,
and save the database.
OBSERVED RESULT
The next time Tellico is launched, it no longer loads either the emoticons or
the accented characters (I am French).
The next time Tellico starts up, neither the emoticons nor the accented
characters appear (I'm French).
However, editing the same file (before saving it in Tellico) in Kate shows that
they are still there.
But if you save this database with Tellico, it physically removes all the
emoticons and accented characters from the database.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Workaround:
The solution to repair the database was to remove the tags “️-rss-on-vivaldi”
and “-reading-frequency” from the entries.
Next, to create fields with emoticons on Tellico:
First create the field without the emoticon, then assign it to at least one
entry in the database. Save the database with Tellico. Then edit that field and
add the emoticon.
