If you have 5.0.0 or 5.0.1 installed via official installer (.exe) then MAKE SURE TO BACKUP your data5 and (potentially) data4 folders manually BEFORE you perform the upgrade. These 5.0.0/5.0.1 installers have the bug and they delete your user data folder by mistake! The bug is fixed in 5.0.2+ installers.

Also note that newer 5.0.2+ installers properly keep your RSS Guard 5 settings but delete everything else. Make sure to move your RSS Guard 4 data away and backup it when performing upgrades!!

I even enhanced the installers to now automatically ignore all folders with name data*. So I expect 5.0.4+ installers to be really cautious about user data.

I am again really sorry for the bug. I can only recommend making manual backups and using zip archive version of RSS Guard to install everything manually, just to be sure.

Added:

  • Hiding article counts is now optional for labels and important articles. (#2111)
  • Articles are automatically marked as ready when opened in external browser or new internal tab. (#2090)
  • Updated default Accept headers according to feed type and also updated default User-Agent header. (#2122)
  • Official AppImages now should support delta-updates. (#2138)
  • Nextcloud plugin now uses version 1.3 of the API.

Fixed:

  • Custom external browser was sometimes ignored. (#2102)
  • Search icon was low-quality. (#2104)
  • Some article list filtering options were not working. (#2106)
  • Article-extractor now respects custom feed HTTP headers and proxy settings. (#2108)
  • Configurable alignment of article counts in feed list now properly vertically aligns to center.
  • Some QoL updates for the installer.
  • Article previewer now also supports dragging of text. Note that dragging of URLs and text can only be done with middle mouse button/wheel press.
  • Article-extractor was completely missing from installers. Jesus. (#2121)
  • Sort order was not properly remembered for some columns. (#2127)
  • Some images were distorted in internal article browser. (#2128)
  • Expanding of items in feed list was bit fixed, particularly when filtering with some search phrase.
  • Some fixes for QuiteRSS import. (#2119)
