Description Jan Holthuis 2008-07-29 21:39:21 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

Currently it seems that it's not possible to disable specific plugins (by using a checkbox or something similar in the settings window of KGet).

Some would consider this report as a wish, but I'd rathers ay this is a bug, because the main function of KGet (to download files via HTTP/FTP/etc.) is compromised:

→ I can't download *.torrent-files anymore, because they are handled by the bittorrent plugin of KGet.

→ Downloading files from rapidshare.com is not possible (»Your IP is already downloading files.«) - I think the multithread plugin is the cause.

So it would be nice to add a dialog to disable plugins when downloading from specific domains. At least, there should be a switch to disable a plugin completely.

Already on the TODO-List for the next days...

SVN commit 840378 by lappelhans:

Use a KPluginSelector instead of a TabWidget for the Plugin's Config:
*Change all configWidget()s to KCModules
*Add more properties to the .desktop-files

Hi Lukas

The new kpluginselector dont allow me to configure or (access to the plugin 
configuration widget) so now i cant configure multithread plugin or 
mirrorsearch plugin features.


cheers

Comment 4 Lukas Appelhans 2008-08-05 19:33:37 UTC

You can, using KConfigXT...
The plugins are getting reloaded after a config changed (or at least should)...
