Bug ID: 409293
Summary: FEATURE REQUEST: Easily export Kontact data (kmail,
calendar, contacts, etc.) for import on another
machine.
Product: kontact
Version: 5.11.2
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: jesse.dubord at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In order to avoid setting up and configuring Kontact and subsequent components
every time it's installed on a new PC, I'm requesting a feature that will
easily export all Kontact data into a single file or folder, which could be put
on a flash drive (or cloud storage) and transferred to another PC where it
could easily be re-imported into Kontact.
STEPS TO perform
1. Somewhere in Kontact menu would be an action to export Kontact data. The
user could specify the destination, and Kontact would export all configuration,
email, calendar, todo, journal, etc. data into that location (either in a
single packaged file or folder, preferably the former).
2. Move the exported file/folder to another PC.
3. Open Kontact menu on the new PC and there would be an action to import
Kontact data, which would import the data into Kontact, making set-up on a new
PC a breeze.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Suggested while using Kontact 5.11.2 on KDE Neon 5.16.2
