Description Vedran Ljubovic 2006-09-11 10:28:59 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Mandriva RPMs
OS:                Linux

When I right-click on folder in Konqueror, choose Properties, I have two tabs named "Share" and "Sharing". This is confusing, especially if translation to some language gives the same string to both tabs. The first one comes from lisa, and the second from kpf. I suggest that the kpf tab be renamed into "Personal File Server".

Just another suggestion of naming - rather than 'Share' and 'Sharing', I would propose 'Local Sharing' and 'Web Sharing'.

"Local sharing" is just bad. Term "local" tells nothing. You have to specify if it's about web sharing, smb sharing etc. Just tell the user the correct term - it won't confuse him/her more than too abstract "local".

Copied from 144744 (a duplicate, but category kio) as requested:

The file properties dialogue for a directory shows these two tabs, next to each other.  But they are only vaguely related, sharing files in different ways with different configuration options and permissions.  (Yes, I know that the second "Sharing" option actually comes from kdenetwork/kpf). 
 
 Suggest the titles should be changed to make them more specific and to indicate what sort of sharing is meant.  Maybe something like: 
 
    Share   (kio)  ->  File Sharing 
    Sharing (kpf)  ->  Web Sharing
