Roundcube should include CalDAV / CardDav client in its core functionality
by André Rodier 10 Oct '18

10 Oct '18

Hello all, I know there are many calendar and contact plugins for Roundcube, some of them offering CalDAV and CardDAV client or server functionalities. However, they not stable, not integrate well with mail functionalities or with the interface. Lets say presenting options to accept or refuse an invitation sent by email. I don't even mention support for the advanced features that some CalDAV and CardDAV servers are providing, for instance the excellent Davical. Moreover, some of them are coming with their own CalDAV or CardDav server, which I think is non-sense. Roundcube is a webmail client. It does do only one thing, but does it well. It does not come with a mail server feature... Is there any planning to add a nice and well integrated calendar feature on Roundcube? What about adding a CardDAV client for the address book as well. Using the LDAP address book in Roundcube is already great, it would be nice to have CardDAV integrated as well. Thanks to consider this! I have plenty of users who are concerned with Google Mail lack of privacy, and don't even like its web interface. Kind regards, André -- https://github.com/progmaticltd/homebox

Hi, i maintain some public plugins and have a question about elastic skin. One of my plugins has a custom preferences page and it looks like I have to use different markup for elastic vs larry/classic. What is the recommended way to handle different markup based on the skin when using the plugin preferences hooks? Cor

Folder List Refresh
by Tim Evers 11 Sep '18

11 Sep '18

Hi List, I recently came across an issue with the way RC handles the folder (mailbox) list. It only draws it when the page itself is loaded. And while the list gets updated for changed number of unread mails / trash stuff, it never gets reloaded as a whole inbetween. I would consider this an issue in case two clients (even two RCs) operate on the same mailbox, which is quite common for our users. In this case new folders created in another client do not show up in RC until the whole page is reloaded by selecting a task that reloads the UI. Right now it's even necessary to invalidate the cache if active. (But that should be an easy fix.) I would like to see the folder list being refreshed whenever the list of mails itself is refreshed. Since getting the folder list from the server is not expensive and as far as I could see trivially patched into the refresh handling in RC, it comes down to changing the mailbox list display from HTML fragment to JSON/Javascript command. As far as I saw nobody is or was working on this, so I would like to do it myself. But bevor I start working on it I would appreciate any input on this idea. Thanks Tim
