Please Fix the "Add to Wishlist" function
 

Please Fix the "Add to Wishlist" function.

If I have an item or two in my Wishlist, it sits waiting to requery in xx seconds.

So far so good.

As soon as I search for some other file, and if it is found, begins to Download it, XX times, where XX = # of items in my Wishlist. All wishlist items are lost.

This is easily reproduceable.

LW 2.4.4 Pro (paid) Java Runtime 1.4.0

Re: Please Fix the "Add to Wishlist" function
 

Dear LimeWire User,
Thanks for writing. My name is Susheel, I'm one of the LimeWire developers. Can you give more information about the problem, namely what search terms were you 'wishlisting' for and what searches fulfilled them?
I ask because if there are matching terms in a search result with regards to any of the wishlist downloads, those wishlist entries will be fulfilled and downloading will begin. For example, if I have a wishlist entry for 'sush' and I get a result called 'sushi is good', then the wishlist entry will find a match and start downloading the file 'sushi is good'. Basically, if you were wishlisting for popular terms, then your other searches could have fulfilled those requests.

Thanks!
Susheel

Hi Susheel

This bug still exists in 2.5.5

This is easily reproduceable. Please try this:
1. Search for something you won't find, like "Zicrosoft"
2. Add it to your WishList.
3. EXIT Limewire (<-- This seems to be the key)
4. Restart Limewire, so far so good. Wishlist item is intact in "Downloads" window.
5. Search for something you'll definitely find, like "Microsoft"
6. Whoa, look what happened to your Wishlist Download !

Will Be Fixed!
