Custom awards missing after update

[vk1di]

After updating to latest version all my custom awards are gone. How can I save and restore these during updates?

We're they saved with a unique name or were they variations of the standard award set?

For safety use File/export award and save the XML file

Hi Terry,

Yes I have exported my custom awards as xml files with a unique name. I can import them back in okay. Was hoping for a way to quickly import them all, however I dont have too many so will just import them back in one at a time. Something to keep in mind before updates, save all custom awards first by exporting to xml files.

They should be reloaded/restored after an update, I will speak to Lele about this

Just make sure that you back them up

I was wondering if they get restored from a certain path? I have been saving them in a folder that is replicated up to Google Drive, so have a backup.

The awards folder in user config folder

[vk1di]

So C:\users\username\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\awards
I can see my custom awards in this folder as well. They seem to have been created after the upgrade though.
See what happens next upgrade.

Time permitting the next upgrade will restore user awards as it was intended

FYI. Updated to v2.7 and Custom Awards have gone again... can import them back in from C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Log4OM2\awards

Yes, no automatic re-import made yet.
