Right now, there's only the "download theme" option, but we can't install a theme file from disk. -> Add button to open and install local file, much like in wallpaper selection dialog Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Workspace Appearance | Desktop Theme 2. Look puzzled for a way to install a theme from your disk 3. Actual Results: No such option Expected Results: User should find a button to Open a theme from disk.
As a workaround, themes can be installed from the commandline using: plasmapkg2 -t theme -i themefile.zip (For updates, use the -u flag.)
I'm on it.
