Description Emir SARI 2023-11-26 20:06:39 UTC

Latest Plasma 6 Git, neon Unstable. Tried with both en_US and tr_TR localisations.

Steps:
1. Open a KDE application e.g. Dolphin
2. Launch Handbook from the Help menu
3. Scroll down and click on a chapter link

Expected:
1. Jump to the relevant section of the documentation

Actual:
1. Documentation not found page displays

Workaround:
1. Launch KHelpCenter
2. Navigate to the relevant chapter from the sidebar

Info:
- Documentation associated with the regular "Help" buttons, like in System Settings, seem to work

As I understand, the indexing (transfer) does not happen when the links are clicked on the TOC. Reproducible workaround is to use the sidebar, then it properly indexes and imports the contents of the help file, and the TOC is properly navigable.

Maybe the solution is to index everything on the application first run, so that everything would be working.
