▪ "Default" icons of feeds/categories are now NOT directly stored in RSS Guard DB and they are dynamically loaded from active icon theme instead. (#200)
▪ New plugin for Inoreader. This is supported only in full RSS Guard "web-engine" version, because of web OAuth 2.0. The new plugins is in EXPERIMENTAL phase, expect errors and report them.
▪ Menu action "Select next unread message" in "Messages" menu now works across all feeds, so user can navigate through all unread messages with a sigle keyboard shortcut. (#132, #6)
▪ Added two bindable menu actions (in menu "Web browser & tabs") which allow to cycle among tabs. (#6)
▪ Displayed feeds can now be sorted by multiple columns. Do you want to sort by author, and THEN by title? Simply click first "Title" column, then on "Author" column. If you hold CTRL during sorting, the sort is done in reverse column order.
▪ Fixed #76, now user can choose to "not show the dialog again" when opening hyperlink from message previewer. This only concerns the lite version of RSS Guard which uses simpler text component for message previewing.
▪ (Linux only) Primary user data/config storage is now undex $HOME/.config/RSS Guard. XDG_CONFIG_HOME variable is respected. If old user data is detected, then old user data path is used. Note that the location of cache is now changed too to $XDG_{CACHE,DATA}_HOME/RSS Guard.
▪ User now can select if DB transactions are enabled or not. (bug #70) By default, DB transactions are now switched OFF, therefore anyone who wants better performance, must turn them ON in app settings.
▪ All textual contents of all messages are now locally saved in explicit UTF-8 encoding. This is partially because of MySQL backend. We need to keep encoding of data sent to DB and encoding of DB itself in parity.
▪ TT-RSS plugin now does NOT require service URL to be entered with "/api/" suffix. In other words, do not use that suffix now, RSS Guard will add it silently when it needs to.
▪ Qt "styles" are now configurable via settings and not hardcoded in "skin" files. Default "style" is now "Fusion" and can be changed to anything else in settings.
▪ Development builds are now automatically compiled for Windows and Mac OS X. See https://github.com/martinrotter/rssguard/tree/build-artifacts for links and more information.
▪ Correct message is now selected after some feed gets updated. Multi-selection is not maintained, only focused ("current") message selection is. (bug #46)
▪ Feed updating/message downloading logic is now a bit simpler. Message downloading is still parallelized but final storing into DB is not. It is now queued. This slows down the proces only a bit, but gives more reliability.
▪ Fixed problems with obtaining custom ID for downloaded messages in TT-RSS plugin. This caused probably a lot of problems with mismatch of downloaded/real unread messages counts.
▪ Internal message viewer is now based on QtWebEngine module which is based on Chromium project. This speeds up viewing of messages and supports newest HTML 5 or CSS 3 features. Note that this does not mean that fully featured internal web browser will come back. It will not! Only SIMPLIFIED internal web browser is now added. New message viewer is also better for viewing messages in newspaper mode.
▪ Feed updates are now parallelized up to infinite number of threads. This speeds up speed of concurrent feed updates rapidly (more than 5 times). I was able to update about 160 feeds in 35 seconds. Note that this feature is still in experimental state.
▪ Main menu is by default hidden, tab bar is now always visible. Main menu is now accessible via left/top corner iconified button. Users can of course tweak settings in Tools -> Options -> User interface.
▪ All skins except default are removed because it is difficult for me to maintain all of them. Any user can pickup removed skin from repository, tweak it (it is easy) and send it to me and I will include it with next version of RSS Guard.
▪ Completely abandoned support for self-updating via NSIS installers. Now, RSS Guard is distributed only via ZIP archives on Windows. User still can download them in RSS Guard.
▪ Auto-update interval/type is now persistent across sync-in for TT-RSS/ownCloud.
3.2.3
—————
Changed:
▪ Some minor tweaks for default icon theme loading.
3.2.2
—————
Added:
▪ RSS Guard now supports system-wide icon themes and on Windows -> built-in Faenza theme was tweaked.
▪ ownCloud plugin now allows to add feeds and rename feeds.
Fixed:
▪ Some minor buggies and code mistakes.
▪ Fixed problem with message counts.
3.2.1
—————
Added:
▪ Internal message previewer now introduces list of images contained in message contents of displayed message.
Fixed:
▪ Changes in count of all/unread messages are now faster. This results in (much) faster program startup when using BIG database file.
Changed:
▪ Internal message viewer now displays title as part of main HTML view.
3.2.0
—————
Main:
▪ Internal web browser was REMOVED. This is because old Qt WebKit web component will be removed from Qt and new Qt component for web viewing is based on Chromium, which is fucking joke. Some people hate Chromium because of many (technocal, philosophical, etical) reasons. Moreover, it lacks some useful features and is memory hungry. It is also very buggy in Qt now. Therefore now internal web browser is gone. Message preview component now uses much lighter solution and still can display certain HTML subset. RSS Guard was tweaked to be more friendly to external web browser. Double-clicking any message results in it being opened via external web browser.
▪ PLEASE, fill this survey: http://goo.gl/forms/ASWg4TFxlS

▪ Added ability to hide status bar.
