You should disable the activity ranking plugin.

It is unmaintaned, and does not exist in the newest kactivities.

Comment 2 Filipe Azevedo 2014-06-28 17:56:10 UTC

How I do that please ?

Thanks,

You can go to the System Settings -> Workspace Behaviour -> Activities -> Plugins and disable it from there.

You'll need to restart the activity manager (log out, and back in)

Comment 4 Filipe Azevedo 2014-06-28 21:49:43 UTC

System Settings is not available on mac.
How I can do ?

Saw the same happing multiple times in the last while...

Comment 6 Ivan Čukić 2014-06-30 20:39:17 UTC

You can create a [Plugin] section in activitymanagerrc (no idea where the config is on mac, but on linux it is at .kde/share/config)

You can add:
org.kde.kactivitymanager.activityrankingEnabled=false

This config file resides on MacPorts' KDE4 below ~/Library/Preferences/KDE/share/config/ !

The file didn't exist in my case, so I created it.

Thanks, Ivan, we'll see how this works out.

Comment 8 Ivan Čukić 2014-06-30 21:04:17 UTC

Lets hope it will not be a problem. The activity manager should create that file on startup.

Comment 9 Marko Käning 2014-06-30 21:12:58 UTC

Well, as I wrote, the file wasn't there yet.
