Can't import additional folders

Support questions
#1

First I imported all my feeds via an opml file. However, I have a second app which has just a subset of them with my favorites for easier access. So i wanted to import the corresponding opml file as well to have a folder for my favorites, but it doesn’t work. It doesn’t create the new folder.

The opml files look basically like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<opml version="1.0">
  <head>
    <title>Subscriptions</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <outline text="Folder One" title="Folder One">
      <outline title="Site A" xmlUrl="site-a.com">
      <outline title="Site B" xmlUrl="site-b.com">
      <outline title="Site C" xmlUrl="site-c.com">
    </outline>
    <outline text="Folder Two" title="Folder Two">
      <outline title="Site X" xmlUrl="site-x.com">
      <outline title="Site Y" xmlUrl="site-y.com">
      <outline title="Site Z" xmlUrl="site-z.com">
    </outline>
  </body>
</opml>

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<opml version="1.0">
  <head>
    <title>Subscriptions</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <outline text="Favorites" title="Favorites">
      <outline title="Site A" xmlUrl="site-a.com">
      <outline title="Site X" xmlUrl="site-x.com">
      <outline title="Site Y" xmlUrl="site-y.com">
    </outline>
  </body>
</opml>

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Advice for creating minimal import opml

Should be fixed now. Thank you for reporting this.

No, it’s not yet working. I just tried it and it showed the imported Favorites for a few seconds, but then they disappeared again, and now it’s not working anymore at all. :thinking:
Very weird behavior…

Perhaps you have set your feeds to show only unread ones (so they disappeared once they were subscribed). Try to go to settings => Subscriptions => “Show all” and check whether Favorites folder is here.

It was already set to show all :confused:.

Sorry, wrong fix. Please, try again.
