Description Dotan Cohen 2011-12-14 21:20:05 UTC

Every time I open Konqueror the Places "Show all Entries" checkmark is
checked. I uncheck it, close Konqueror (from either the X in the
window chrome or the File -> Quit menu item), then reopen it to find
the checkmark checked again (and all the unwanted entries showing). I
tried to disable preloaded instances because I figured that it might
be interfering with the setting being saved, alas it did not help. In
Dolphin the Places menu works as expected: unchecking "Show all
Entries" persists. The problem only manifests in Konqueror.

Oddity: The "Show all Entries" checkmark returns to the unchecked
state as soon as I move to a different folder! That means that I open
Konqueror, and all the entries are shown. I then click on any folder
(either in the Places menu or in the main window) and as Konqueror
moves to the new folder, the unwanted Places items disappear! So
obviously Konqueror is checking this setting whenever it enters a
folder, but it is not performing this check when first starting the
application.

This issue still occurs in  Konqueror 4.14.2.
And is really annoying.

Is there any chance of having it fixed in the 4.x series?
Great number of stable Linux distros use it.

Thank you.
