[QUOTE="Stéphane Lenclud, post: 1197411, member: 140174"] It sure looks like a bug to me, then again I know next to nothing about the history of that code. It could also be a lack of feature I guess, depending from where you are standing. If I understand that right ATM we can: [LIST=1] [*]Deactivate channel shortcuts. [*]Have channel shortcuts within current group using index. [*]Have channel shortcuts within current group using channel ID. [/LIST] What's missing to me, and other people apparently since a fix for this was already drafted, is: [LIST] [*]Have channel shortcuts across groups using channel ID. [/LIST] Moreover I do not think option 3 described above makes sense and it sure seems to me like the intention was for it to work across groups. That is why it looks much like a bug to me. It could easily have been introduced when implementing feature number 2. Now you will have to tell me how that works. Can you lock a group with a PIN code? If not, then it's not so well hidden I'm pretty sure most kids will work out really fast how to change groups through the UI. No need to beg, I'm more than happy to compromise ;) TBH I would rather change option 3 to work across groups. However if someone has a strong case for keeping it in we could just add a configuration option so that we would get 4 ways to configure channel shortcuts. [/QUOTE]
