Description ro.ko 2004-04-15 22:52:33 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:          Linux

Virtual folders for konqueror similar to virtual folders in kmail.(stored and updated searches)
Access from the Go-menu, or buttons in the toolbar.

I would like this idea, too. I think it would be really useful to implement this along with #66908 (adding support for arbitrary metainformation to files) - I think the Gnome people are already working on something similar and I see huge potential for grouping files using metadata and dynamic queries instead of just using the directory structure. For people who manage a lot of user-created files, like I do, this could make finding information much easier.

I have found a description of what I mean here ( He calls it live search folders):

Bug 112252 suggests to use this feature for example for filter results.

Comment 7 FiNeX 2009-09-16 21:41:48 UTC

All reports about file management mode reported against KDE 3 (konqueror) has been closed: konqueror in KDE 3 is no more developed and mantained. All bugs and wishes which could be interesting for Dolphin in KDE 4 (the new KDE file manager) has been collected into a specific list.

Please try the new file manager before request new features and report bugs.

Before submitting new reports check carefully the already opened KDE/Dolphin reports in order not to add duplicates.

Many thanks.

P.S: a very similar request has already been made for dolphin. no need to reopen this.
