Description Alan C. Whiteman 2019-02-28 20:05:35 UTC

SUMMARY

One of the most useful productivity features in Konqueror, the 'View Profile' is no longer working.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open View Profiles, or click on 'Save View Profile'
2. Give new name, click on save
3. Close Konqueror and open again. Profile not saved.

OBSERVED RESULT

While all the View Profile facilities are intact, no profile data is saved and cannot keep the state of the file manager in a fixed view.

EXPECTED RESULT

Konqueror should be able to open specific view profiles to allow users to customize their work flows and have the file manager remember the previous state of the windows and paths.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Konqueror Version 4.14.22
Using KDE Development Platform 4.14.22

Linux/KDE Plasma:

KDE Plasma Version: 5.8.9
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.36.0
Qt Version: 5.6.1
64-bit

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Konqueror was the very best file manager for power users. Deprecating much of its functionality was a tremendous disservice to may people that depended on it. It would really be great if these essential functions could be restored/fixed.
